If the political cronies weren't so blinded by Mel Semblers fat purse they might have seen the proof that that foundations tactics were, and still are doomed to failure. DFAF and straight just spit out bullshit propaganda (straight especially, they only dealt with naive teens and they told outrageous lies that most of the kids knew were bs but were scared to speak up on).
Kids know when your bullshitting them. I'm not glorifying drugs, but marijuana is not harmful in moderation. But when kids discover they've been lied to about that then they figure that they've been lied to about coke, pills, meth, and everything else that carries serious harm. Kind of like the BLM thing, there's some truth in that (except all lives matter, the BLM title is racist), but the media throws in so much bullshit on that subject that many of us start to look at that whole movement as a joke.
