What do you guys think about this?
I've heard some ideas recently about creating pro-pot ads for TV. The problem isn't that we couldn't get the message across if we tried; the problem is that we don't have the money.
Those anti-drug commercials are government funded, right?
Shouldn't the equal-time-share law apply to the feds too? If we got someone to agree to produce them, do you all think we could ask for a federal grant to fund our opposing side of the drug-argument? It seems only fair in this free nation of ours that the public be allowed to hear BOTH sides of the story, especially about drugs, which we all know have many pros as well as cons.
Do you think we could get the government to PAY for our commercials?
I doubt it, but I guess the real question is: Is it worth a shot?
Don't individuals handle federal grant cases? If we could just happen to get soeone that is anti-drug war to hear us, they might let us go for it. I don't know how much money we'd be talking about, but those anti-pot commercials were running during the Super Bowl. We could get some good time slots if this worked...
