We came here to learn more about substance abuse and this exhibit is real eye-opener. It is sad to see how many people that use drugs and don’t know the effects it has on them and the people around them. There are so many people have lost their lives because of using drugs and selling it. Get educated.

My college professor says that the war on terrorism is more important than the war on drugs. This exhibit, however, clearly shows that the two issues are one in the same. Drug trafficking is terrorism.

I am glad that this exhibit is reaching the eyes of people around the country. Drug use and abuse is something that shouldn't be an issue; unfortunately it is. On behalf of the Clearwater High SWAT committee, we are proud to be supporting this exhibit.

I really enjoy this exhibit. I think that if this ever made it into a high school then it may touch someone as it touched me. I am a lucky person to have never really been around drugs and yet i still picked up pamphlets thinking "oh i know who needs to read this.

Going through this exhibit is a great eye opener to me and all the other teenagers/adults that have been around, offered, or are on drugs. Real stories. Real facts. Those and personal experiences are the only things that will convince a person to quit!

I think that drugs should not be allowed because they can kill you or a baby. The baby needs oxygen to live, and if they smell when they inhale the drugs then that can cause them to die.
