  • marijuana gateway to health.. written by clint werner look it up!! read it!

  • facebook.com/justsaynow?ref=ts­&sk=wall :) :) :) :)

  • Comment removed

  • Marijuana is not tobacco.

  • That's funny, because I keep seeing adverts for the army on facebook. I'm no expert, but I think joining the army can have quite detrimental effects on your health.

  • i smoke herb

  • FB is in bed with the CIA- just look at who funded it. Now why would a former CIA director want to have a company which stores databases on individuals with visual recognition and personal networking information is pretty clear. They will sell that data to the government- and the government will trust them- you should already know they have the right to do anything they want with your data provided. If there is one thing the department of justice hates- its marijuana reform.

  • @EgadsNo All another step towards N.W.O, they are using media to brainwash the public, we need to wake up

  • This makes me want to delete my facebook account.

  • like if ur watching in 2011 ^_^

  • @420JimmyX I'm watching this in the year 2887. STFU and suck it.

  • @ForceRecon198 well aren't you a pleasant person..

  • @420JimmyX After seeing stupid ass comments like that more times than I can count... yes... yes I am very pleasant.

  • @ForceRecon198 haha fair enough

  • lol ofc they would ban it. you cant have ads for ambien and weed up at the same time. fb wouldnt get that check from the pharmaceutical company.

  • So to test the theory that they took the ad down because of the leaf... how about putting on ad up with big bold text "Legalize Marijuana" if this is removed then you no know it was not because of the leaf.

  • Comment has been Removed By a Third Party Site, Facebook. And User will be prosecuted. For Following " I Support Pot And Any One WHo Smokes Is Doing Gods Work", Freedom Of Speech Revoked. Title number 1447442

  • We are all about hair and beauty and thought we had a lot in common!

  • what a min i can like marlboro,camel,and newport cigarettes on facebook anti tobacoo my ass. i believe a goverment agent is there and doesn't want the people to know the real facts. and can of soda has more crap than pot

  • face book is raciest.

  • @hatchet125 dude learn to spell...

  • BookSpace and Twigger is gay as fuck. Its a tool for the gov to watch you.

  • No one thinks it's ironic that they take down an ad because of a LEAF, but women and little girls are allowed to post sexually suggestive pictures and show everything except the actual private parts? I got my account deleted because I took a picture of my throat, which I admit, could be seen as disturbing to some who don't know what the inside of your mouth looks like. Yet endless bikini or bra-in-the-mirror shots are added and overlooked. What a silly world.

  • Lastly, I believe in Facebook's right to choose what they WILL or WILL NOT advertise on their site. Don't agree with this move in particular, but if I owned Facebook, I would want the right to approve or deny anything I wanted.

  • The answer is for pro-pot people to stop using the friggin pot leaf everywhere. They should stop smoking on camera also. And STOP USING A POTLEAF IN YOUR LOGO TO YOUR DISPENSARY! MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A LEGITIMATE BUSINESS AND BLEND IN FOR GOD'S SAKE! YOU'RE SCREWING IT UP FOR EVERYONE BY BEING TACKY!!!!!

  • I think this touches on an issue that is underlying the ENTIRE pot issue. I think the people who oppose pot don't really oppose pot, they oppose the tacky culture that has insisted for the last 50 years upon putting that pot leaf in the faces of the squares. If headshops would not have been legal for the last 50 years (in spite of pot being illegal), the whole 'thumbing noses' thing would not have created the environment that exists in the opposition that has arose due to the thumbing.

  • @88beauzeau88 The 'squares' (law enforcement, and conservative republicans) have always made fun of "potheads". In fact, it's the 'squares' that come up with all the different names for the pot user. Dope fiend, pothead, doper, stoner, etc. The squares are afraid of marijuana, often because of paranoia they experienced when they first tried the drug. As a defense, they may make jokes about drug users, ALL THE TIME. They use Cheech and Chong voices and make 'stoner' jokes all the time man..

  • Comment removed

  • "they're not gonna use Facebook anymore" -haha good luck with that.. Facebook is a drug its not like you get angry at it and leave it, once you're hooked up you're done(personal experience).

  • @killerbiller35

    You have zero willpower.

  • @BeBoBli its just a joke :D i actually made a bet that im not gonna use internet at all this summer, see how it goes for me:)

  • facebook can do what the fuck it wants, they are a private company, and there are loads of kids on there so they have a right to censor kids from drugs.

  • facebook can go fuck itself, those fuckers trying to censor whats right.

  • i think this guy is stoned

  • Visine14, you know what's fuckin stupid? USING THE WORD "GAY" AS AN INSULT.

  • these two suck, especially him

  • these two suck

  • we should legalize drugs because people are going to do them anyway. why dont we legalize murder people will do it anyway.

  • @peanutman5240 because they kill people .got it?

  • @peanutman5240 i always hated the facebook.i dont have facebook account and i will never make an account

  • thankyou i would not have noticed that play on words if you had not told me.

  • facebook hate cannabis??!... fuck facebook

  • facebook violated the 1st amandment!!!

  • pssht pot is not gonna be compared dirty tobacco!

  • Not publically funded my ass, like Google, Facebook is a front for the CIA and the Illuminati

  • OMG ! listen to this crazy guys message about POT ! #949-963-3422

  • This video should have been titled: "Mark Zuckerberg suck's Big Pharma's cock."

  • they have a game on facebook called potfarm that consists of growing many strands of marijuana guess that doesnt promote use just growing of it lol

  • I thought the head of facebook war for legalization. He supposedly pumped a couple million dollars for the pro-legalization campaign I thought.

  • Its illegal because the gov't says so...wtf u think this is??? a DEMOCRACY?!

  • I suspect,

    that Facebook would also ban pictures of

    a woman getting an abortion.

    Imagine that.

  • why dont they ban cypress hill to?

  • Marijuana is just a small part of the benefits of the cannabis plant , it is possible to make all Paper, all Plastic, All Energy, in form of Ethanol and bio-diesel, fibers for all types of Clothing, the seeds are the World best Protein and Essential Oil recourse, Cannabis seeds can end world hunger in one season, it can replace over 90 % of all natural recourses, timber, aluminum and steel included. Finally, THC Oil Cures Cancer and hundreds of other illnesses.. One Love ~ JB

  • @OnlyHempFuture

    Bio-diesel would not be realistic..... The rest is more or less plausible.... Fun Fact: George Washington grew and smoked his own Mary Jane

  • @OnlyHempFuture

    Then why is it illegal?

  • @compsciguy It is illegal because the cotton industry didn't want cannabis as competitor ruin their business

  • legalize dope. Dope smokers are easy to control.

  • haha who the hell can dislike marijana ?

  • they aren't ok with this, but they have a game called POT FARM?! i guess it's only ok when they make a bunch of money off of it.

  • Comment removed by Facebook.

  • Comment removed by Facebook.

  • just say wow

  • Comment removed

  • the owner of facebook donated i think 40 or 60 thosand to prop 19 he supports it but his sponsors don't always want to be affiliated so it makes sence financially to take it down

  • I agree that FB excuse is preety lame.. with that said, I dont think it was a foolish move by them. Lets face it, most people dont want to legalize pot.. .I dont smoke it but i dont have a problem with my neibor smokin up.. So to say that "potheads" are going to cancel their FB account for removing this ad at a greater number than the people who hate pot and would cancel their accounts because of all the legalize pot adds, you need to lay off the hashish.

  • @kinganuthin I wouldn't say "most" people. It's suprisingly close and that's only because people are ignorant as to how much actual taxpayer money is wasted on combatting it. If everyone knew what joke the war on drugs was they would all be legalized.

  • Poor little Facebook.

    Watch this video here on youtube if you have a facebook account.

    watch?v=6TN5phfu3mE

  • facebook should also ban masturbating

  • FACEBOOK IS FUCKING EVIL!

  • "..use facebook to practice their first amendment rights..." HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

    It would be a safer bet to say that no one on face book gives a shit about their first amendment rights and are there in a desperate attempt to extend their "15 minutes of fame."

    Cenk has to strain real hard to pretend that he respects this ditz, when he's actually thinking of using her hair as a bridle in the Turk-Wagon ('68 Ford Econoline) out in the parking lot.

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck Facebook

  • @UDraftDogr4Q in the face

  • @UDraftDogr4Q

    who the fuck is face book to tell us to smoke pot or not???!!!

  • damn it I clicked again on these people gd!

  • Suppressed Cancer Cure!

    I'd love to see TYT discuss Rick Simpson's Cancer Cure Hemp Oil (Cannabis extract full of Cannabinoids including THC).

  • Why are people so against fucking ourselves up?

  • tobacco, comes from the tobacco plant. or have i been living behing the moon?

  • facebook is fuckin gay

  • see also facebook

  • after legalization, i just want to buy 10 acres in the Central Valley in California and start an Industrial Hemp Farm...of course, there would be room for a few female plants as well...

  • @jonesey5168 female industrial hemp plants won't get you high either, but i know what you mean

  • @jonesey5168 me makes two!!! If we the people can persuade the Global Elites to 'end the madness of cannabis prohibition' then we should be able to lawfully and peacefully grow and produce cannaboid produkts freely and without any official interferance but as our recent experiences can testify that goal aint gonna be easy to achieve but I say, keep going, sooner or later the truth will out!!!

  • Weed should be leagal. It has so many pros. Sure they're cons, but they're cons for everything. Some individuals just can't handle things that's life. no one is the same. But for real leagalize it!

  • @ArcAiN6 i was shorting the words and fuck using grammar on youtube u homo and you know im right u just dont want to admit it

  • Pot rules, if you smoke it, it is worse then tobacco, but taking it in other ways is probably one of the most helpful drugs that we know of today. and is very beneficial for many people(many, many People)

  • @Marniwheeler what evidence do u have that tobacco + cannabis is bad for you?? The evidence I have seen proves that cannabis helps fight carginogenic compounds in tobacco, so roll em, and you'll live longer!!!

    Just check thru my youtube favvs and you'll see the evidence I have seen...

  • seriously... STFU... facebook is not a public entity, they have the RIGHT to determine if the add violates their terms of service or not.

    Smoking, having, or distributing marijuana is ILLEGAL in the U.S. so all of you criminals stop crying wolf because you were too stoned to read the EULA / terms of use policies and understand the scope.

  • @ArcAiN6 i agree.. pot blows.. people who smoke are stoners who lower their i.q. with every hit.. they smell like shit, have no money cause they blow it all by puttin it all up their nose.. weed's just gay and im hoping to have a couple thousand thumbs down for this post from all u crack head junkies supporting ur favorite plant thats cool tho haa dont care about a bunch of druggies opinions... but anyway facebook can do w/e they want so everyone shouldstop bitching about a stupid fucking pot ad

  • Cenk & Anna should do an add together smoking marijuana while watching Netflix... I'd sign up to that!

  • they should start actually telling the truth about drugs in school cuz if they infom the kids cuz the kids will probably tell their parents and have their parents do some research and learn the truth about pot and how good it can be 4 them and how it would benefit almost every1 cuz almost every1s parent were told that pot is worse than alcohol

  • @handsandpand

    lol... seriously... learn to spell, learn to use proper grammar, and then talk about the faults in the educational systems. 

  • Fuck Facebook, Twitter and Myspace.

    YouTube is the only good social site.

  • fuck legalization, DECRIMINALIZATION, people want to be able to smoke it without worrying to much, not pay a fortune for it once its taxed

  • so if its just "decriminalized" will I still have to buy it off the black market instead of in the stores?

  • Legalise it

  • I think the worse pot can do to an individual is... make you fat, stupid and lazy, but that's not a bad thing.

  • I wanna smoke a doobie and rape an elderly white woman! I dun told you, you was gonna get raped!

  • weed is not a drug its a plant, drugs you have to do certain processes to make them what they are so thats like saying aloe vera is a drug a lot of people use it though don't they.

  • If you PAUSE the video and press the left ARROW key then you can play SNAKE on youtube. NO JOKE!

  • Why is it the "gateway drug?"

    Possibly because the person you bought it from sells more than just weed.

  • Tobacco product? Are you f@#king serious? Freedom of speech my arse, how can they defend it with a tobacco clause? Are we all idiots? Do the tobacco companies already own all the rights to pot, the facebook CEO must know something we don't!

  • the real Burning Bush was a pot plant.

    

  • @metadaptation That comment wins the internet lol

  • I'm actually with Facebook on this one...

    I'm probably going to get a lot of thumbs down for this comment... :P Oh well.

  • @0k13r4n0

    can i ask, why?

  • @NathanHaselhorst Well, I'm generally against the legalization of marijuana just because of the fact that there'd be a lot of people who abuse the substance (..or atleast in my vision...). In that, I'm thinking there'd be more physical damage (or psychological damage in that matter) for those who smoke it. Secondhand smoke-damage would be an issue as well, meaning marijuana would affect everyone. So, related to the facebook add, I just find that advertising something like this isn't so great.

  • @NathanHaselhorst Of course, marijuana has its pros. This is just my opinion, I'm sure it can be viewed totally incorrect through your eyes, which I'm fine with. I know people don't like the term "gateway drug", but I find that people will be demanding more with the legalization of marijuana.

    And remember, marijuana is illegal and the majority of users on Facebook are teenagers. I just don't think that's a good match.

    But what do I know, I'm only a 16-year-old boy. :)

  • @0k13r4n0

    Well, Alcohol is worse, and its legal. And you said, that with easier oppurtunity to access marijuana that the demand would go up? That's a good thing, if they tax it..the country would make money off it , so the people WILL buy it. And the side effects are hardly negative compared to alcohol and tobacco.

  •  legalize

  • "It is a plant. If you should so happen to set it on fire, there are some effects!"

  • what "effects" are there that you talking about? I just cut up some grass off my lawn, set it on fire in a rolled paper and there were no effects!

  • @KripDrip Look up Katt Williams Weed and you'll get it

  • All they need to do is redesign the ad and omit the leaf. Then Facebook wouldn't take it down.

  • These people are dumbasses dope isnt good for u. So that is probably y they dont want to allow it. Dumbfucks

  • Facebook has chosen to ban certain images in order to increase users in their target market.

    Something like Bush banning media coverage of your slain Heroes.

    If you don't like the ownership, stop using them .... Oh ya. You voted them out already.

    :P

  • I just deleted my facebook account. Thats serious bullshit.

  • Comment removed

  • facebook advertises beer and alcohol. HYPOCRITES! 

  • @MaverickCadaverick == I'd like to see beer at least regulated better so that it doesnt cause problems and as for tobacco, the tobacco companies should be held liable for the millions of deaths they have caused by polluting tobacco with all those carcinogens == and why isnt either made safe for human consumption??

  • simple answer: bad people in charge of bad companies immune from prosecution koz bad ppl regulate their industries!!! Thus change the regulations n make these chemical addictions illegal and safe

  • as far as I support cannabis legalisation I have one very important restriction:- anyone under 21 years of age should avoid it like the plague and be patient == once your brain is matured enough then smoke it until then avoid all contact!

    we have some idea it affects the brain but until ur brain is mature it can cause mental illness in those under 21's therefore treat it exactly like alcohol and tobacco but u cant tax personal growers unless u earn > VAT thresholds...

    legalsie 4 over 21s

  • @a41dog Good advice except that your reasons are flat wrong.

    Marijuana will not cause mental illness. Youth should not be using it simply because they are not responsible. Not because of imaginary health problems the ignorant masses thinks it might cause.

    young people haven't learned the simple philosophy that there is a time and place for everything and would use it at inappropriate times. - Like during study or work. that is the only reason to keep it from young people.

  • @MaverickCadaverick booze is way more fun. Makes you do much stupider shit.

  • @MaverickCadaverick Not really because alcohol is legal and weed is not(unfortunaetly). The hypocrites are Tea part retards like Sarah Palin.

  • @34601k - the ads are not for selling marijuana. the ads aren't even implying that anyone should break the law. to the contrary, they are trying to get the laws changed so people aren't breaking laws by using a peaceful herb put on this planet by God / the Universe. at one time alcohol was illegal, but they finally figured out prohibition does not work. the same is true with cannabis. its a shame Facebook is SO close-minded.

  • @MaverickCadaverick Unless you've seen the ad yourself ad implies its an advertisment to sell something this case its cannabis. I don't agree with them taking it down but cannabis is illegal so the best way to get it legalized is maybe promote more awareness. I live very near San Fransisco and surprisingly I haven't seen ANYTHING related to the legalization of cannabis so yeah.

  • @MaverickCadaverick Beer IS alcohol, pothead

  • @rickrocker - thanks for the clarification, drunkard.

  • @MaverickCadaverick I don't drink... But your mom does!

  • Beer and alcohol is LEGAL!

    Pot is ILLEGAL. I DONT support advertising to criminals who break the law!

  • @KripDrip things that kill a combined total of 480,000 a year are legal, as you said.

    the thing that kills a total of 0,000,000 people a year is illegal, also as you said. WHO THE FUCK IS CRAZY HERE?! BECAUSE ITS NOT THE FUCKING GANJA SMOKERS!

  • @KripDrip loser

  • @KripDrip The advertisement was to legalize it not convince people to smoke it.

  • but its good for you

  • They have the right to do it, but i also have the right to say FUCK FACEBOOK FOR DOING IT!

    LEGALIZE!

  • i dont think they should legalize pot because its addictive and people will just be constanly high as a kite and it will lead ppl on to more powerfull and more dangerous drugs as they look for bigger highs..

  • @kingkerwick I smoke weed. It didn't lead me to any dangerous drugs, it's not addictive and unlike tobacco(which is addictive) it has many healthy benefits.

  • @MostCommonName1 ive seen people who take weed completely change..one of my friends died of a drug over-dose after been lead on to crystal meth after 8 months of smoking weed

  • @kingkerwick then your friend is an idiot for using crystal meth. That has absolutely nothing to do with consuming marijuana in any way. The gateway theory for marijuana is a completely discredited theory, and even if it weren't you would then have to say that alcohol and tobacco should also be made illegal because they are also gateway drugs. Are you prepared to make that statement? I doubt it.

  • @kingkerwick sure it wasnt getting shit faced and doing some meth?

    Who know what leads people to use harder drugs. but its been proven it isnt cannibus..

  • @kingkerwick the two facts are completely unrelated, whoever supplied the meth was an evil mutha fukka and should goto jail for a very long time for manslaughter and knowingly supplying a lethal drug == why blame weed for ur friend's misfortune??

  • @a41dog ye know bttr safe than sorry

  • @kingkerwick The gateway theory isnt true.

    Less then 1% become depend or move on to harder drugs..

    There is no chemical in cannibus that makes you move on to harder drugs.

    And is no more addicting then coffee..

  • they'd ban cigarettes if you could easily grow tobacco, thats the only reason pot is banned becuase you can grow your own easily

  • @SteamingBurito Not good quality. unless you live in northern cali.

    You have to grow indoors. and that takes a lot of experience. and money.

    I would gladly pay 100$ for medical grade then deal with a mite infestation..

  • @variablast did they really? wow, that's amazing

  • I use facebook to post pics of my bare, fat , hairy ass....Anyone want my name??

  • @GWDPREZ07 is it George Bush?

  • Sorry I had trouble hearing this video over the sounds of exhaust fans and high intensity lights.

  • Ban the Prohibition of Cannabis

    Never use face book !

  • more divide an conquer coming to a home near you! wake up U.S.

  • when i see dumbass comments like "marijuana can lead to harder drugs" i dont even get pissed off anymore its getting amusing. everyone knows marijuana is not dangerous. 52% of canadians supports legalization, numbers dont lie. why arent you seeing 52% supporting legalization for heroine and cocaine then? to these idiots they're all the same right? just drugs. they're all the same. only two kind of drugs, legal and illegal. illegal drugs are all bad. Mmmkay

    fuckin retards

  • @cannabisbisbisbisbis Cannabis is a 'gateway drug', just like cigarettes, alcohol, etc...but it's definitely less dangerous than cigs and alcohol, so we should legalize it and stop filling or jails with pot smokers.

  • @cannabisbisbisbisbis well if you believe losing all dopamine in your brain isn't a bad thing, well then I guess marijuana isn't bad...

    it's funny the people who live weed know nothing (scientifically) about it...

  • @WhatAreYouBuyen lose all your dopamine? have you even done any research on marijuana? yeah keep drinking your alcohol and smoking your tobacco pipe cause that seem to have killed all your dopamine, it wasn't the weed.

    its funny the people who talk shit about weed know nothing (scientifically) about it..

  • @cannabisbisbisbisbis so no only have you decided not to refute my claim, you ignored it completely! XD

    hahah! And then you go so far as to copy my statement, because you couldn't think of anything your self!

    It's funny the people who think so highly of themselves end up being the dumbest!

    I can just imagine the look on your face when you posted that comment! lol

  • @WhatAreYouBuyen True, it'd create more jobs, stimulate the economy, etc. etc. But I mean, why legalize one more thing that has the potential to be a hazard to our health? We have enough toxic substances as it is. I'm going into grade 11, and I must say, you would not believe how many guys there are that do marijuana, which certainly affects their academic performance and overall behavior. I just don't want to see more people ruining their lives like that.

  • @0k13r4n0 nice sarcasm... I'm not against marijuana, I"m just against the idiots who think it's a miracle!

  • @cannabisbisbisbisbis

    I do know that weed is illegal, and tobacco and alcohol isn't.

  • @WhatAreYouBuyen your actually very wrong, drugs involve your dopamine receptors include heroin and cocaine... Your dopamine is a rewards system in your brain, released during sex and while eating. Drugs effecting your dopamine receptors are highly addictive... Cannibus works on your cannaboid receptors. Not addictive. Educate yourself please before you spread your lies.

  • @nameofmeAJ lol Canaboid receptors! Nice! 

  • @WhatAreYouBuyen my bad canabanoid receptors*

  • @nameofmeAJ I see, those must be very scientificalated terms...

  • @WhatAreYouBuyen see back to my original point, you shouldn't talk about things you have no idea about. Your talking about receptors and you don't know shit. Cannabinoid receptor, google it, educate yourself.

  • @nameofmeAJ Lmfao agreed . Anyone who talks shit about weed , knows nothing about it . They do need some serious
