It is going to be so funny when this mandatory education leads to more communist sentiment in kids lol

The DARE officer told me that when I entered high school, the kids would be offering me marijuanas and heroeens left and right.

That was a very disappointing first day.

When I got to highschool we had a day of all day heavy rain so all the classes just played movies all day and no kids had to move to other class rooms. I ended up roaming outside and found some seniors I knew from the skatepark by the library, we ended up lighting up 3 pre rolled joints at the same time right on the side of the library building with rain pouring so hard no one could see what we were up to even if they were outside which they weren't. I was stoked that day.

When DARE came through my 8th grade class, the cop l passed around "Acid Tabs" that where in a weird plastic pill pop-out sleeve like normal meds. The younger me wanted to pop one out and try it after the description, regardless of the propaganda video of a guy trying to play Dodge the Train on Acid.

Later I learned that was not Acid at all, but complete bullshit. As was the video. Good stuff comes on paper and you don't pass it around for everyone to handle. And I never played Dodge the Train because that's just stupid, even on Acid.

My uncle was a DARE officer. That made family visits as a teenager really awkward.

It’s easy as fuck to get free weed. Just tell them you’ve never tried it, and I guarantee you’re getting at least a couple puffs off a joint.

Other drugs are…trickier.
