Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve heard the news — many states in the U.S. have banned the alcoholic energy drink, Four Loko. But why? They claim it’s dangerous, and if you have too much and don’t know how to handle it, it might cause you harm.

But did Four Loko kill two teens in Huntington Beach, California? Afterall, Aaron Saenz, 15, and Chelsea Taylor, 16, were found in an apartment, dead, with an empty can of the 21+ drink nearby. Therefore, the only obvious answer is that the can of Loko came to life and went on a murderous rampage — perhaps grabbing a knife from the drawer or suffocating the two teens in its deliciously-maliciously caffeinated ways.

We don’t mean to make light of the death of the two youngsters, only the sensational pieces of ‘journalism’ like this in the news — which make ridiculous, unprecedented claims.

What they left out in their headline, ‘Two teens found dead in Huntington Beach with empty can of Four Loko,’ was the fact that the Huntington Beach Police Lt. Russell Reinhart said the teenagers died of drug-alcohol related causes. Are DRUGS simply not shocking enough for headlines anymore?

Isn’t this why we have a 21+ drinking age in America — so that ADULTS can make the decision of what is safe for them and what isn’t? If this drink is slaughtering little children, then maybe we should ask the question: ‘Where were their parents?’

R.I.P. Aaron and Chelsea!
