I was disappointed to find out that people aren’t aggressively offering you free drugs everywhere you go. Those DARE bastards lied to me.
The only people who have offered me drugs are friends who were offering to be polite. I always decline, but use the phrase “No thank you” to let them know I appreciate the gesture.
You mean you don’t yell “that’s not cool, man,” and then pull out a skateboard, do a kick flip, and then ride off?!
Well, I will from now on. I wanna look that cool
“That was so weird and uncool, he’s never even skated before as far as I know.”
I was one of the very small number of children that bought that bullshit, that all drugs are bad and what have you, but even I thought signing that pledge was kinda fucked up. Like you were required to sign it, we didn’t have a choice.
Like you were required to sign it, we didn’t have a choice.
Only years later with exposure to contract law did we learn about that pledge lacking “equal consideration” rendering the document null and void.
Does “duress” not enter into it as well?
Then sprinkle on some child abuse and, voila!
Sprinkle on some crack and book em, Lou.
I thought the same thing, we had to sign it or we failed 5th grade (or that’s what I was told).
They still require kids to sieg heil the flag and do the special chant. Shit’s wack
My arms were folded like that when I realized cannabis does not in fact make you go crazy or do unspeakable things. So many lies for so many decades. All for what, as now it is 100% legal in my country and almost all the stats are positive not negative. Why is no one being held accountable for the blatant lies?
Children can’t legally sign a contract, so D.A.R.E. has no authority (and never did).
I don’t smoke the devil’s lettuce. I eat the glorious gummy bears.
I don’t do drugs, I just smoke weed.
It’s a Plant, mon! From da ert!
Yeah they were right about shit like heroin and meth, I knew enough people who threw their lives away to that shit. But my stoner friends were successful and chill. It’s the only drug I care for. I know about benefits of psychedelics but it isn’t for me.
Do they know that Drugs Are Really Expensive?
They told me people would hand out drugs for free to get me hooked. Where are all these free drugs?
They’re in Halloween candy.
More accurate than the BS acronym the program uses. I cannot believe it’s still around…
Man I signed that and now I sell weed (legally)
Don’t you DARE smoke it though.
Well we never had D.A.R.E.
Dont worry
Its comin’ up

Drug abuse resistance education, where the goal was to get kids to not do drugs, join gangs, or be violent by using a pledge.
Drug Abuse Resistance Education
Notably, people who take this course are actually more likely to use drugs and alcohol.
Because they would blatantly lie about the drugs so finding out how untrue it was made what “education” that was actually real seem less credible

It was mandatory in public schools for a while.
I don’t touch the devil’s lettuce. I’m more of a jazz cabbage man.
ive always called it gods green gift (not religious anymore)
How is it that we have socially ostracisized tobacco smoking but smoking weed is ok?
Geez I don’t know, maybe it’s because tobacco is wildly more toxic and carcinogenic. Maybe it’s because tobacco causes hundreds of thousands of deaths every year. Or perhaps it’s because tobacco is loaded with thousands of equally as toxic additives. Just spit balling here.
Wasn’t it the other way around?
6th grade. wow.
We had the banner in the lunchroom but we never had to sign anything
Follow my OF so this stoner can get hers framed? I’ve wanted to put it up right behind the bongs forever
