Goverment funded anti-drug program that sends police officers to teach 5th graders how to use common household items to get high. They also show children videos featuring a penguin and a rabbit who kidnap kids and force them to smoke the 'evil'
marijuana. Because D.A.
R.E. is notorious for using false information and scare tactics, most kids with common sense don't take the program seriously. Basically it's a huge waste of tax dollars and
school time.

D.A.
R.E. Officer: Now children, as you know, most drug users are
lazy, jobless, homicidal rapists, and since drugs cost alot of money, many druggies will use household items to get high.
Kid: Like what?
D.A.
R.E. Officer: Oh, lots of things like white-out, paint thinner, sharpies, keyboard cleaner, whipped cream cans, and gas fumes can be used to get high.
Kid: Whoa, cool!
