nice work, but I hate the message
I'm not going to vote you down b/c you did a good job in my ignorant opinion. BUT... a teenager who drinks and smokes occasionally is not a druggy, they're an american.
If your friends really are huffing paint, then you go ahead and call them dumbshits, but to compare huffing (which can kill any normal healthy person the first time they do it) to drinking alcohol (which is an accepted world wide practice and a strong part of many cultures) seems nieve to me.
If I sound defensive, I am. I'm college student of Irish heritage, so figure out the connection if you like.
