U.S. Navy's dramatic video warning sailors about bath salt drug

The Navy put out a PSA warning sailors to stay off the synthetic drug bath salts. In a shocking video an actor plays an American sailor high on the drug. CNN's Chris Lawrence reports on the Navy's increasing efforts to warn sailors of the drug's serious side effects, after military doctors started seeing more cases of its use.

    How can a spot like that, be played without any warning.
    My 2 year old daughter watched it, because i couln't cover her eyes fast enought.
    Every movie in the US is rated. Why not a spot like that.
    Not even a warning, that this can be disturbing.
    That spot should be forbitten. Or at least not be played before 10 pm.

    I love how the FDA legalized "synthetic marijauna in it's last ditch effort to falsely "demonize" organic marijauna only the FEDS could stoop so low for special interests from Big Pharm, alcahol , tobacco ,and the prison industrial complex.

    Soldiers should use more of these. These will give them super human strength.

    I am in the army, and i can tell you just like any of my other battle buddies in the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force, that training videos like this and other subjects (discrimination, harassment, alchohol use, drug use, etc.) are EXTREMLY cheesy and often times funny because of how cheesy they are. I do realize these are serious issues and the US military is doing these training videos for our benifit, but that dosn't stop some of them from being funny in their ocasional cheesyness.

      I have a file full of completion certificates from annual required training. POSH, PII, Human Trafficking, Annual Security Refresher (interactive, woo-hoo), ad nauseum. I file it next to my DAWIA Continuous Learning (Continuous Boredom) completion certificates. Then I do my real job.
