Educating The Community: Lesson I - Who Was Jim Jones?

Jim Jones was best known as the cult leader of the Peoples Temple who led more than 900 followers in a mass suicide via cyanide-laced punch known as the Jonestown Massacre.

Jim Jones like Riot, eventually fed his followers grape flavored kool-aid laced with cyanide and killed everyone.

Jones and several members argued that the group should commit "revolutionary suicide" by drinking cyanide-laced grape-flavored Flavor Aid. Later-released Temple films show Jones opening a storage container full of Kool-Aid in large quantities. However, empty packets of grape Flavor Aid found on the scene show that this is what was used to mix the solution along with a sedative.[94] One member, Christine Miller, dissents toward the beginning of the tape.[94] When members apparently cried, Jones counseled, "Stop these hysterics. This is not the way for people who are socialists or communists to die. No way for us to die. We must die with some dignity."[94] Jones can be heard saying, "Don't be afraid to die", that death is "just stepping over into another plane" and that it's "a friend".[94] At the end of the tape, Jones concludes: "We didn't commit suicide; we committed an act of revolutionary suicide protesting the conditions of an inhumane world."[94]

Hence the term "drinking the kool-aid"

The lesson is that you should never believe anything Riot says to you kids.

Or you could be drinking your own kool-aid... http://i.imgur.com/YSzVcbE.gif
