US / Peru Shot Down 15 Planes in Airbridge Denial Program
December 15th, 2008 by Alex
Who says the American government doesn’t come clean? It might take them a while… but they do get around to it. Eventually.
In the first public reports about the Airbridge Denial Program – a US / Peruvian operation to shoot down civilian planes identified by CIA spotters as narcotics transporters – we’ve learned the exact number of planes shot down. Fifteen.
Between 1995 – 2001, most of these airplanes crash landed in the jungle (and could never be checked for drugs), but in one post-shooting case an emergency river landing led to the discovery of Veronica Bowers and her 7-month old daughter. Both dead, both innocent.
The story goes on to tell about violations of aircraft interception procedures, obstruction of justice and potential criminal charges. Finally, some light is being shed on a government program that went too far.
Just Say No to New Anti-Drug PSA’s
February 1st, 2007 by Alex
Ever watched an Anti-Drug PSA and thought, “What the hell are these guys smoking?”
You’re not the only one.
Studies have shown that these anti-drug commercials are not only completely unsuccessful but also a waste of millions of dollars in taxpayer’s money.
So, after years worth of supporting research into this topic, you’d think the government would change it’s tactics. Well, it has … kind of.
The newest stream of PSA’s have gone from high-budget, live action spots to badly drawn, poorly thought out excuses for anti-drug commercials. I mean, these things get more ridiculous every time I see them, yet somehow they keep getting made.
Today, we’re going to look at the latest batch of garbage from Above the Influence – the Office of National Drug Control Policy’s attempt at influencing today’s teens into going along with America’s outdated anti-drug program.
Read on to see the commercial mayhem.

November 6th, 2006 by AlexHere’s proof that America isn’t the only country producing retarded anti-drug PSAs. Other than being pretty disgusting, this one tries to promote the notion that weed makes you freak out and puke.
Uhhh, that’s a negative Mission Control…
