Kool
Did you hear about cigarettes called Kool? The Australian Government
told us about them in the 1960’s. The government stopped the Kool ads
because they were lies. They told us that cigarettes made us cool because
they were bad for us. They killed people. Cigarettes, they told us, were bad
for you. Not hip or cool. Our mates who smoked cigarettes were dying from
cigarettes. How was it cool to smoke cigarettes?
The real story of drugs is similar. The TV and radio tell us that taking illegal
drugs is cool or hip. But they don’t tell you the truth about drugs.
Illegal drugs are Kool. And that doesn’t mean they are cool.
Not everybody takes drugs… Since 2021 less than 1% of us take drugs.
