Illinois Medical Marijuana Testimonials

[KKillaJ]

if u like education on cannabis hit up my channel im trying to get the real truth out about it not the propaganda that cops and the government say i try and provide real facts

[philosothink]

Make a funny cat video, get 1,000,000 views... show how real, ill people are benefitting from marijuana as medicine, only get 6120 in over two years... Funny how people refuse to admit that one of mankind's longest used herbal remedies is actually good medicine. Even crazier, is that they cannot see that Big Pharma and the prison and military industrial complexes are getting rich off prohibition, at the expense of American citizens.

[jaket61]

cont. - Over the counter sleeping pills dont work, and a doctor would prescribe me some dangerous narcotic like ambien. And meanwhile, most states that dont have a system similiar to cali are so strict that i couldn't get it.

[jaket61]

it can be used for so many things. aside from legalizing, which should happen, it can be such a good thing for so many problems. Cthis makes the Cali system the best system for medical mj. Yeah, its an easily abused system, but those who should use, but may not have one of the more severe ilnesses can still get it. I have so many sleeping problems and pot is the only thing that i feel safe using, and that helps the most.

[Dpiiiius]

I support all uses of marijuana, being solely a recreational user.

But without a doubt, the government should at least make medical marijuana legal in all states. Its really a gift from god and it is the best thing I've ever experienced in my 16 years of life so far

[vannoah]

They are voting today!! I hope it passes, people here really need this!!

[DonVares]

i send an email already i hope it gets legalized

[zalen292]

I support the use of medicinal marijuana in IL.

[sirbigtok3r420]

i support both the medicinal and recreational use of marijuana for the whole country

[sirbigtok3r420]

i support recreation use and medicinal use worldwide

[leafyP]

I had leukemia and used marijuana to help with the nausea and vomiting. I tried many different prescription appetite stimulants and none of them did anything to help. It would have been a lot easier if I did't have to buy marijuana on the black market so I could actually eat without vomiting. After all it is non toxic and let's face it, it's an f'n plant!

[SuperGoldfish1999]

the guy at the end has a redneck southern accent he must be from arkansas, people in illinois have canadian sounding accents

[GuBB3rGuN]

Northern Illinois, im from the south. If you go a little north people have southern accents, if you go south they dont... but if you go REALLL south, they do again. Its weird.

[SuperGoldfish1999]

I've never been to illinois but I've watched the Blues Brothers and also I've heard that people there have Canadian sounding accents. I live in Buffalo, NY and the people here have *REALLY* thick Canadian accents, it's right on the Canadian border so no surprise there

people anywhere south of D.C. have southern accents or southern-sounding accents basically (on the east coast)

The accent spoken in Upstate NY is pretty similiar to the accent spoken in Maryland for instance (Canadian)

[Doziai]

One word: LEGALIZE!!!

[georgekyriazis1]

what a stupid country......if u go almost anywere in europe, its not leagle but it pretty much is noo one gives 2 shits....not even cops....only in america....wao

[JPotGirls]

I live in Japan and have MS. Not much freedom of speech here so all I can say is thank you very much for speaking publicly.

Hopefully soon, recreational (or past) users, like Obama, will also be able to talk honestly about marijuana.

[Ant0inette3]

marijuan does not fix pain cure all that illness fix ur bones this is rdiculouse doesnt cure cancer lies lies lies

[Chiicago1985]

I'm sorry to put this bluntly but you are an unintelligent fu(k

[Th3Ch0ng3r420]

you're a dumb piece of shit...you should do your research before saying anything.

[eTernaLBOWLING]

you're really ignorant bro.. i don't mean that as a cut, if you look the word up, i think you'll see why i used it. I broke my back and was paralyzed for 2 years from the waist down, and i can say with 100% certainty it does help with pain. also with nausea (used to get it from pain and couldnt swallow for some reason? wierd). the key here is, opiates do work a LOT better but they destroy my body. i get constipated to the point where it causes more pain than my back, as well as other effects

[bosstrav]

Anti-drug commercials are paid for but the Pharmo Industrial Complex

[MickeyMockery09]

Sorry, you'll just have to live in excruciating pain you disabled losers.

[dubsity280]

yeah thats what we want perscription pills that eat ur dam liver and cause other harmful health side affects isnt this the stuff we are tryin to keep from the hands of the people what a F'n joke there is not one bit of evidence to support any claim made by the goverment that marijuana is dangerous

[y2knoproblem]

Move to Spain. Pot is legal and its a better country.

[Fujimoto420]

I'm ashamed to call myself an American if th is is how we treat our people. . .

[rethadys78]

well its been shown that marijuana can actually help prevent,slow down, and even kill cancer cells for a long varietys ofcancers and its been shown to reduce the sizes of tumors

[rw5791]

I would ask you to tell that to bob marley but he died years ago from a lung tumor the size of a grapefruit.

[mastereck]

I don't think anyone is claiming that marijuana is a cure-all, but it is definitely a cure-some. And that's a proven medical fact.

[soulforged789]

Word.

[holymolygodman]

he had cancer in his toe, and due to Rastafarian religious beliefs he didn't amputate it and it slowly spread to the rest of his body over time, and he died from that, not lung cancer, if anything weed would of prevented lung cancer.

[zeitgeisthero]

rw5791: WRONG. Bob Marley didnt die of a lung tumor. He died from malignant melanoma cancer on his foot !

[TheLostRepublic]

hmmmmmm....... i wonder if smoking cannabis PREVENTS such illnesses. idk

i hate how people feel the need for doctors to prescribe any medication.

when i broke my arm recently i realized how ridiculous it was that i needed to go to a doctor first before i could just go to the store and buy some codeine or some other kind of drug.

there will always be drug ABUSERS so i dont see why responsible USERS are being demonized because of some retard that lacks self control.

[shersondf]

For one Pharmaceutical aint going under, pot does not work for everything. If I go to the E.R. witha bone petruding through my leg I am not going to be asking for a joint so, I am going to be crying for Morphine, Pharmceutical companys wont get hurt to bad but hopefully the ones that make bullshit pills that do more harm then help will finally bite the big one and good ridence, If there is a safer alternitive I want it availible to me

[leafmotif]

pharmaceutical companies will loose millions, and because we live in a capitalist world, driven by profit and compassion simply isnt a motive. There is one plant which solves all these problems. Power to the people!

[BandWagon07]

I smoke lots of weed..

I am right now..

It helps my allergies.

Two thumbs up for cannabis.

[trknadam]

I have severe osteo arthritis and have several bone spurs in my neck. Smoking weed has done me a lot of good. It calms the nerve pain in my neck so I can actually sleep at night. I beleive its much better to use marijuana for treatment instead of poisoning your liver and other organ with a bunch of highly addictive pills. Weed should be legalized completely in every state of the country. I never heard of a pothead going home to beat his wife.

[skatinsteve101]

the contents in videos such as this must be not only seen, but thoroughly considered by members of government.. support!

LeGaLiZe

[SCIENCEWORKS2]

once we can get it how do we ask our Drs for it , hum hay doc can you get me some weed ? , they might let it pass for smoking it but thaking it orally yes they don't have an excuse for that one . an me too i would gladly give up my morphine for hemp meds .

[Puabond]

Legalization within 5 years, callin it.

Compassion for our most in need, will be the beginning of health for the most deserving.

[RevGreen]

make it happen Illinois......thank you Julie....

[eshapiro92]

One of the best videos on youtube. I just wish that the government would understand.

[GOPSpinMachineInOD]

I don't consider MJ to be any sort of 'miracle cure', I consider alcohol & pharmacutial drugs far more dangerous both to the user and society than marijuana. I suspect if MJ were decriminalized, we'd see a sharp decline in alcoholism and the need for anti-depression medications.

[rcollins923]

and that's why the pharmaceutical companies are funding anti-pot commercials and movements over the country.

[SheepDogProductions]

Marijuana IS a wonder drug. It does the job of hundreds of medications, without the very harmful side effects.

[Iohgilbert]

Precisely why the pharmaceutical and alcohol industry lobbyists are so well funded and so fervently against repeal of prohibition.

[youngr33zy15]

i have depression and whenever i smoke weed it makes me happier than any anti- depressants can make me feel.

though anti- depressants work quite well for me, marijuana might be a better alternative to others. why not legalize it?

[bassmanfl420]

How do we live in a "free country" and the gov can command us to use the medicine they deem aproriate and demonize those they dislike. What kind a fredom is that????

[mos619]

Ya know....If we had this bill passed the FIRST, second, or even third time it was introduced my son might still have his grandpa around. He had a back surgury and was put on oxycotin and slew of other drugs which killed him. He ODed takin what the doctor recommended.

Do people realize how totally insane and irrational it is that we outlaw a plant? What's next, starwberries? Roses? Tomatoes? You eat the part that isnt the tomato and that shit'll kill ya. Save the children outlaw tomatoes!

[legi0naire]

1 Huge reason for making it legal are those damn prices, 5-10 per gram for something so easy to grow O.o

Its like smoking/eating gold, and not because its rare or needs lot of attention not just because people decide to make it illegal based on ancient lies.

My ADD drives me nuts, weed helps me chill off end of the day and go to sleep without endless thinking when i am in bed, there is ritalin and other dangerous chemicals i am suppose to take but all come with side affects and some dangerous.

[iamryno78]

thats the problem if they legalize then people wouldnt need prescription drugs like loritab and stuff like that so some big people are loosing lots of money.

[hellraisertheuber]

Those ppl could start growing medical marijuana so they wont lose any money , maybe even make more.

[metalfunk420]

think about it all of these people where no precription medication and when the smoked weed or eat it it made the precription drugs unnessary

and i wanted to thank the brave people who where in this its easy to type funny shit into to the computer but it is hard to jeprtize your self

[SileDevil]

Legalize it! peace

[Pvtjamesryan2]

Is there a point to this pathetic video?

Yes they need to legalize weed. Those whole idea of keeping a herb illegal is so stupid. I don't even want to dive into the conversation.

Fuck the USA.

[EmilAhlback]

Feel free to move?

[empbac]

If all the reasonable people who want marijuana legalized moved away, only religious neocons would be left here, with access to all these pretty, shiny nuclear weapons. The 'last battle' would happen the day after we all left. Gotta stay to make sure the world doesn't come to an end quite yet.

'Yes, Mr Bush, I understand Iran needs to die, but you can't nuke them right now. Their oil fields will be destroyed too if you do that, and that's not God's will!'

[LedZeppelinx88]

All u weed haters, watch this shit RIGHT NOW!!! Its fuckin harmless

[BreadStoneburn]

Its un-harmless then, haha V

[travis9827]

who needs any more proof than this.

[grubelsucht]

Denying people such as in this video the marijuana medicine they need is immoral and evil.

[Cannabisativa420]

so what are you guys waiting to legalize it? we need a revolution!!!

[DEACONAP4LOVE]

Its been a life changing thing. OH YEAH!

[KingHaze420]

Very touching stuff.

We HAVE to stop throwing sick people in jail for a harmless plant.

LEGALIZE IT.

[SCIENCEWORKS2]

This is it the drug co's will lose money by not selling you morphine yea i've been on morphine for many years an when i tryed to get off it they gave me suboxone and that gave me grand mal sezures , so then i used pot an that diden't give me the sezures and even helped the pain by haveing me not think of the pain all the time the thing is i can not get any pot not now anyway i live to far from the city to get it + i'am on disability, i'am dieing anyway so what's the diff* how much longer do we .

[padkirsch]

Friend I am sorry for what you are going through. I am really hoping legalization is happening sometime soon!

I have you in my thoughts and prayers!

Support and love!

I am hoping the Cannabis makes you feel much better and helps with your seizures!

[charlie1der]

people from illinois need to contact their representatives

[EscpdFrmPsykward]

People in every state need to contact their representatives. ;)

[imartarded]

if only representatives in america actually represented the people!!

[JoeKerr420]

so sad to think about all these people who just want to be free of pain but the laws in the country would rather call them criminals for ingesting something that grows naturally.Thank big brother for his connections with pharmaceutical companies.they would rather see us take pills that kill our livers or kidneys.Land of the free my crippled ass

[Freehugsforall125]

LEGALIZE IT
