I know of kids who were in my grade who were drinking, smoking pot, and even doing harder illegal drugs in middle school. I'm not saying your point is totally invalid, but cutting off the supply in the way you say doesn't entirely eliminate the ability for kids to get things. (Especially if there's a case where a kid's parent(s) decide to be a supplier.) (Edit: It doesn't have to be a parent; it could be an older sibling, cousin, neighbor, etc)

Not sure I get this one. Was it that criticising him wasn't allowed because he was a fellow communist, but praising him wasn't allowed because he supported Trotsky instead of Stalin?
