Thats... what I've been saying all along... no one wants to look at drugs #1 because drug companies don't want that and #2 looking at drugs introduces the conversation to atmospheric affects on violence, which implies culture, which isn't easy to discuss, no red meat, and no political cheap shots.

Are you even legally allowed to advertise guns? Why do I feel like guns were lumped into the ban on tabacco commercials? *shrug*

google, which i assume just complies with regulations, only will advertise airsoft guns that have a tip in blaze orange (they fire plastic pellets with compressed air) http://support.google.com/adwordspolicy ... wer=176077
with tobacco i thought it was wrong, but the tobacco companies in the lawsuit agreed not to advertise, not that they were forced not to. in exchange they knew how much they'd have to pay out to the states and whatnot (which is certainty and companies like that) but of course the government always looking to squeeze more out of them
