What does having an Italian accent have to do with anything?

A good way to ensure that your kids will not be annoyed by bullies and their like is to introduce them to drugs early. Most bullies don’t like to taunt addicts, they have personalities that makes such an action dangerous. Plus, your kids will be nice and happy, no taunting will get under their skin.

Please, don’t let your kids start on drugs without your participation. Introduce them to the good stuff, don’t let them follow a cheap crowd at school. You want to make sure they choose something that will make them stay hooked. If they start at school, they will likely start with a gateway drug, you want them to start with the hard stuff, and work their way up. No bullies, no worries.  
Thanks for your time.

Of course I may not understand how forum information is posted, but in this thread – and earlier posts – he or she shows as “BANNED”, while the rest of us are just “Member” or “Moderator.”
