NSW Government's Anti-Marijuana Campaign

[spinynorman]

Look, this isn't particularly hard hitting, but given the great majority of people on this board are outside NSW you likely wouldn't have seen the State Government's "Stoner Sloth" commercials to dissuade people from using marijuana. I know these seem like a joke, but gloriously they are not.

drugs are bad...mmmmmmkay

Looks like its directed at the classic conehead kid...no different to anti grog ads trying to stop kids binge drinking and hurling up giant pavement pizza's all over mums bathroom floor.
Have seen worse.

Wonderful ads that are amazingly not the product of a satirical show.

The stonersloth needs better friends, what a bunch of judgy shaming drunkards.

The reefer madness gag is also old. An ad targeting young people needs to be honest.

For an MS sufferer its called relief.

Cannabis should be legalized. Legal in 4 US states (including Sarah Palin-land) and soon all of Canada.

This ad campaign was a waste of taxpayer money and deserves to be ridiculed.

 

[Borry]

Yeah money wasted that could easily be paid back if they legalised it. They don't even need to do short sighted things like shut down the Newcastle line.

Still can't get over how pleased with himself he looks when he passes his mum the salad.

Most stoners I know are lazy sloths who live a pipe dream. I am glad these ads are really p*ssing people off. Damn sloths.

LOL Victoria exploring legalising medical Marijuana, NSW daemonising Marijuana use. Is NSW actually going backwards?

The state war has gotten very weird.

Shame, discouraging kids from smoking weed is a good idea. s**t ads though.

 

[Maggie5]

Read that he was going to have another look at the ad given the public ridicule.

Then point out what it can do to their developing brains, rather than reinforce stoner stereotypes.

The dope drug driving testing is a lot worse. People are being busted days after a smoke with no impairment

What about the second test back at the station. Is it coming up positive as well?

Yes, because THC is still detected, despite no impairment.
