The victims of the war on drugs: drug campaigns

"There is a press release that comes from Google U.S. State Department. It's a comment on a report by UNICEF on the situation of children in Peru's coca-growing areas. Let's start with the report. Being poor, living in rural areas, in coca growing areas and be a child or her: the worst combination. 21% of teens are pregnant or already have at least one child, 25% of mothers never received any medical service, only 35% have access to safe water and 5.5% to drain, only 25% of teens going to school (secondary) - and this figure is even lower for women because if you get pregnant the retreat, and so on.

Victims of drug war: children

Public Health Dealing with issues such as sewage, potable water supply or the spread of certain communicable diseases, cholera, tuberculosis, fever typhoid, AIDS, today is not a good deal, economically or politically. Dealing with the customs of the people is a rich source of profit, especially since the implementation of promises contained in the Public Health Plans are for real or fixed light years away and there is no human way to refute their hypothesis because they are not assumptions made by the scientific community but by the Big Band of Thieves.

According to an article published in the latest issue of Alcohol and Drugs Findings , the largest anti-drug campaign led by the U.S. government was not only totally useless when the youth away from drugs, but had the opposite effect they were trying their promoters. It was in 1998 when the U.S. Congress passed with the support of the two major parties the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign , an ambitious initiative to reduce youth consumption of drugs.

The cost of the campaign was over one billion dollars, and involved all the major TV networks, for every advertising space purchased by the ONDCP (Office federal U.S. drug) promised to donate an equivalent time in propaganda Free. The campaign received harsh criticism ranging from the illegal use of federal funds to the misleading propaganda through the creation of dubious links between drugs and terrorism, but the worst was yet to come.

When the NIDA began evaluating the results of the campaign in 2002, experts came from his astonishment. The more the kids remembered the campaign, the more favorable was their attitude towards consumption and felt less able to resist any offers to try cannabis. Another significant rebound effect was that, on being presented cannabis as something widespread among their peers, children were taken of the main message ("do not take drugs) and stayed with the secondary message (" everybody does it " .)

Thereafter, some changes were applied (a greater emphasis harms of cannabis in the raising of the age of the target), but the results were identical. The disappointing conclusion was that the attitude of youth towards cannabis was independent of their exposure to this very expensive campaign: 1,000 million dollars thrown away. ONDCP's attempts to extract some positive outcome of the campaign by manipulating the data did not convince the U.S. Congress, who preferred to rely on the assessment of NIDA.

No wonder, then, the harsh opinion of the NGO Citizens Against Wasteful Government (of a more than conservative), in May 2005 described the campaign as one of the most serious incidents of waste of public resources devoted grueling epithets such that: "ONDCP's program has been nothing but a smokescreen to disguise educational project, but actually created for torpedo state marijuana initiatives (...) violated campaign propaganda federal laws did not reduce drug use among youth and has not produced any significant results "

inevitable questions: Are the campaigns FAD and the National Drug Plan is subject to some kind of evaluation? Are we wasting resources that could be devoted to things most useful? Will they have something to do English anti-drug campaigns with increasing youth consumption in our country? We fear that any government official will answer these questions.

La Oreja de Van Gogh, joints and hypocrisy


not usually use this blog to air issues personal, but deleted three comments on the weblog of TAVAD force me to do so. It turns out that the guys have posted TAVAD an exclusive interview with Amaia , lead singer of San Sebastian, where this lady intended to give an impeccable image, at least in a case that is the touchstone of morality today: the illegal drug use.

Since that San Sebastian is a small town where everyone knows, is very difficult to keep secrets and use of cannabis approximately doubles the national average, largely due to the traditional tolerance in the capital Guipúzcoa, I tried to spoil the conduct of the singer's comments weblog, which I have not been allowed. Moreover, the manager accused me of "defaming" and "gratuitous accusations spread."

"This blog will not accept those comments constitute libel or gratuitous accusations, arguing that undermine the dignity and image of the recipients of the same. Thank you all for respecting the principle of participation."

narcoguerrilla If any reader has photos of a member of La Oreja de Van Gogh smoking or rolling a joint, will be more than welcome for publication and subsequent transmission to the administrators of that weblog. And now, my comments deleted. Comment 1


"I know more than one member Oreja de Van Gogh smoke dope. As La Rochefoucauld said, "hypocrisy is the tribute that vice pays to virtue." The members of this group should remain silent about their drug use to avoid being hypocrites, because they preach one thing and do another. "

Comment 2
An excerpt from an article by Diego A. Manrique:

"Also, when a group has no compelling story or grand theories, you must fill pages telling anecdotes of his life on the road to reveal what they are unwilling or unable to articulate. Impossible, insisted: precisely, we try to prevent the press from the defense were caught low and reveal details as "outrageous" and who smokes dope or identity Amaia boyfriend. Freaks: Something similar happens in the same journal and with the same journalist (greetings, Antonio Ortega) with Txinato and Extreme, which does not hide its flaws but if you have become angry. "

Piedrecitas against the empire

It follows that members of La Oreja de Van Gogh hide their vices and get angry if you have.

Comment 3
"I simply stress (two messages that have been rejected) which is more than likely that some members of La Oreja de Van Gogh may be hiding certain hobbies for reasons of marketing. I have not defamed anyone, rather than against the dignity (which, in my humble opinion does not depend on the thugs who smoke one), my comments go against the hypocrisy of some musicians who claim one thing and do another.

Visiting other blogs

Occasionally I have the luck that I posted something much more visited other blogs (and less single-issue) than this. It happened a few weeks ago in escolar.net , with a commentary on amazing turn for the most rabid prohibitionist of our current Interior Minister José Antonio Alonso, and has happened again more recently in Malaprensa an excellent initiative Josu Mezo, a message statistical manipulations to which they give some benefactors of humanity (in this case, a cocksucker by the name of Josep Solans ) towards the target , as undesirable as impossible, a world without drugs.

good thing about these visits is that they can have a multiplier effect , the greater the more popular are the weblogs that collect these interventions. I wanted to express my thanks to both bloggers for their kindness and, in turn, lead to the usual narcoguerrilla (if any, that the only subscriber to the feed is this writer) to some articles that might interest you.

And I can not miss the opportunity to recommend the latest entry in the weblog of the FAC, which deals with a meticulously detailed study of English consumers of cannabis, published more than a year without having lost a bit of today.
