i think thay should just ban som on the vital things needed to cook up that crazydrug so it wont be so easy as it is now to make this crazy drug ik now its like imposible to ban things from stores that are around for like ages but thay should consider the childs that are confronted whit this crazy drug so that cant and wont heapen anny more cus the drug will become rere i think that the problem is that its way to cheap so anny one can buy it so that childs on a hi school thay cant affort it.

good video, informative. People, no matter race or nation, will always seek to "get high." The drug of choice may change from day to day, but the truth remains the same. It has to do with a lack of spirituality, no fault of the drug user/abuser, but the fault of a society hell-bent on destrction.
