When Humor May Not Have a Place

I just watched this video on YouTube. I was watching some Ali G stuff and clicked on this and was immediately floored. Such a powerful message and especially since I've had people close to me greatly affected by crystal meth, it immediately got my attention.



But what do you think of the ending? In ordinary circumstances, that is pretty funny...but this was a video with an important message. I think they should have left that out. If they wanted to get attention with humor that's one thing, but to send a serious message and then make it funny, I'm afraid I don't quite get it.

That's so sad, I don't like the humor at the end either... it's kinda stupid when this is such a serious subject.

My god, I can't believe how much some of those people changed in such a short time.

I find it rude that try and make it funny at the end. It's a sad topic for sure and I think they would better serve people if they had a website at the end to show where people could get help for their loved ones instead.

I am with you ladies. I think that was a poor way to end such a powerful message :(

I totally agree too.... drug addiction is something that affects so many families worldwide, making it humorous is of no benefit... how are people meant to take the subject seriously if pun's like that are used :( My heart goes out to families who are so tragically affected :(
