  • This was four years ago and we haven't gotten our government to move on this issue yet. We only have ourselves to blame. Just ask yourself, "What did I do to move this issue along in the past four years?" If your honest answer was nothing, or near to nothing, then please consider doing SOMETHING this year!

  • hemp is great soy is genetically modified now; it's GARBAGE

  • they dont call it the healing of the nations for nothing.

  • It looks delicious. That clip of it sprinkled on a pasta salad really made me drool. :F

  • Hemp is illegal because of the combined effort of William Randolph Hearst, Andrew Mellon, and the DuPont family.

    Hearst owned timber, Mellon was heavily invested in DuPont, and DuPont had a big stake in man-made fibers.

    Hemp would have reduced the value of all their investments, as it is a much more renewable source of fibers from which to make paper and fabric.

    Hearst practiced his usual brand of "yellow journalism" that pushed the gullible public into embracing wars and bad legislation.

  • @webfulcrum DuPont family has fucked up a lot of things in this country along with Monsanto and other chemical death giants

  • lol Its called the "New Soy" when its been around forever. Fucking marketers...

  • @FloydIV Giving it that title is (one of) the best way to spread the product to the big public tho. Can't call them scold them this time :p

  • I bought a 3 lb bag from amazon... tastes good...

  • That's right make a joke out of it you stupid self-absorbed bigoted TV NEWS fascists

  • Save your seeds! National Hemp day is coming soon. On April 20, 2010 plant all your extra seeds around your city outside where they will grow.

  • Seed ain't the "fearsome" endproduct, no flower to be seen ya'll so called brave dogs! Brave but not free as Woody Harrelson said somewhere.

    Good to see how scepticism is also a hereditary disease, not so surprised as man has so many distortions going around them, economic, intellectual materialism ---> religion's pollution. Yeah that really played a big role in the current day diseases greed, war and sceptiscim.

  • Main enemy to Oil, Timber, Medicine, Cosmetic etc. etc. Company's wanting You! to stuff yourself with their shit first. Just do it...think later, would be a look on especially 16 y / old's of wich the gov. arranged so that kids could sign themselfves into war...how Christian is that? Just to mention one "Right"-winged hobby.

  • Miracle plant 

  • we cant allow this to happen! for one reason only which is....

    "it will destroy Businesses we have now and than we are fuckd!" but dont worry guys the Businesses we have now wont let this happen without a fight! and we the People will loose! They will nuke this planet before they let it happen i swear lmao

  • why the fuck is one group of people ruling and controlling an entire race of human beings. THats messed up. still it won't be for ever.

  • We're already in a hole as far as the economy goes. The smart thing to do would be to legalize it. But the roght thing is to keep it as it is. I'm all for legalizing it... but the cost would be much too heavy...

  • The main reason it's illegal is because it's extremely useful, and easy to make. The lumber industry would go out of business too. Hemp is a lot stronger and cheaper. I understand the whole "fear issue" but the gov is an ass hole for making it illegal. But look at it this way: legalizing hemp would drive so many people out of jobs.

  • @ItalianJoker92

    It wouldn't end jobs, would just modify the raw materials used in all of those jobs. In actuality it would create more jobs, as growing and cultivating hemp is seasonal and ongoing.

  • LOL that dude is neglecting hemp milk. XD *Sigh* my answer is I don't kno!. I'd say do it!

  • @duesiswild True, but how much do you honestly think the US would need? One person working a hemp farm would be able to replace 20 guys on a lumber operation, and it'd be a lot less labor incentive, cause get this; weed... is a weed. You don't need to tend to it that much. That's without considering that hemp can replace more than just lumber.

  • Comment removed

  • i believe all drugs should be legal drugs should not be a police business its all so corrupt people if given freedom and self determination will only have very few drug addicts In our world usa australia canada england we have very stern laws and the result is crime  and violence .Check switzerland laws and low problem compared to our addiction rate. EDUCATION NOT PENALISATION!!!!!

  • hemp for the future

  • @MrMarijuanaKills would you not  like to have better food

  • When Pure THC was injected into rats with cancer their tumors shrunk. So its not like THC is bad.

  • there will be no hemp explosion until people understand that hemp is a plant and not a drug.

  • @eternalrabbit

    Most of the people commenting here seem to be idiots.

    Hemp is the stalks of cannabis, So even though the stem contains little to no CBD'S, the cannabis plant still produces "the evil drug marijuana".

    Dont ever use it if your black because you'll rape the first white woman you see.

  • Ok, this is a dumb question, but could consumption of this product result in a failed drug screen ?

  • U KAN smoke ROPE BUTT it's Knot DOPE FYI simpleton ha ha other amauseing HEMP FACTS EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW Colubus could not have sailed the blue in 1492 if not for HEMP sails & riging better known as rope

  • These broadcasters almost acted like impartial journalists. Almost. They did act like entertainers who cannot accept a simple distinction between two different plants. The fake TV Dr. tries to address the story in a serious manner, but his efforts are muted by truth-hating actors.

    I love the toolbag "man on the street" in the blue button-down. Douche!

  • These broadcasters almost acted like impartial journalists. They did giggle like children, but less than I expected from their ilk.

  • Informative story -- fascinating how the newsroom goes to the lowest level of intelligence on something so important and valuable for people's health.

  • Cannabis IS hemp IS marijuana. Hemp isn't in the same family as cannabis/marijuana, it IS cannabis - marijuana!

    Industrial hemp is cannabis with all the THC selectively bred out of it. Marijuana is cannabis bred for THC.

    Hemp still IS the most domesticated crop on the planet.

    This guy is an MD? Uh... He confuses poppy with cocaine (poppy produces opium/herion), and calls tetrahydrocannabinol, tetrahydrocannabis. The coca plant (not cacao plant, that's chocolate) produces cocaine.

  • These are Hemp hearts, or shelled Hemp seeds. One can not buy other in the US, because people might that put in the soil. Anyway the seeds are a wonder, the plant is a wonder.

  • US GROW THE ECONOMY. COM

  • Hemp IS healthy---whereas soy is NOT!

  • why is this not our major export?

  • Hemp cheese? Is there any limit to this plant !

  • @gringodeltoro1 That is pretty much exactly what I was thinking!

    I know you can make paper, fuel, build houses with hemp wood and concrete, make plastic, make all sorts of food... But cheese also?!?

    As an atheist, I almost have to believe in god/aliens/or some other intelligent designer because of this plant.

    But logic is shown for the shell game that it is, for who designed the designer who crafted this magic plant? Surely nothing is greater than cannabis.

    In the beginning, there was weed.

  • Yeah I know most of what I just said makes no sense!

  • @watercup123456 AMEN !

  • Unfortunately even though they report on it, the three to one banter about it getting you high distracts from the story and confuses the masses. American News is only meant to dumb down the population. Wake up. Legalize

    One Love

  • mofo pos bitch i hate u

  • Im all for this !!!

  • No wonder the old media is dying. How anybody who is suppose to be as informed as a media anchor can even for a second think that hemp could get you high is beyond me. Not that getting high is a bad thing of course. Much safer than all that alcohol those guys drink.

  • news guy has funny eyebrows

  • 3:07 the anchor doesn't know what he's talking about "its like poppy seeds and cocaine" poppy makes opium and other pain killers... cocaine comes from a entirly different plant... (the coca plant)

  • some days i wonder why there are school shootings, just once i wanna see new crew shooting..... maybye the gene pool will get cleaner!

  • lol there are 8 essential amino acids. not 10

  • I just want to walk up to these plants and hug them.

  • If you're allergic to milk AND soy, hemp is an amazing alternative, tastes great, and makes for awesome protein shakes when working out =)

  • the body high you get from marijuana

    is the same as the body high from oxy

    the media needs to redefine there deffinition of "high"

  • If we werent in such a state of economic disaster I would laugh with them. I contacted my legistlator and asked her, after listing as many benefits as I could in a short email, why not legalize it?

  • I just want to punch that dumb bitch in the mouth after watching this clip again. Seriously, I hate her! I loathe her and people like her! Once you drop the "majijuana" bomb on them they get all June Cleaver on you. Start with the "i don't know about this......will it get me high?" "I don't understand, this hemp is majijuana, how can I eat it without getting high?" "What is this hemp stuff".......even after it was just explained to them as if they were a 6 year old.

    FUUUUUCKKKK!!!!

  • I KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUUCCCK!!!! ..dumb bitch.

  • @chubnostics meanwhile that "news caster" is going to go home and have a few drinks and destroy her brain, liver, etc. - what a retard -

  • @chubnostics tell them it's like mushrooms. Some can kill you, some can get you high, but we don't outlaw the mushrooms you can eat because of what the other types do.

  • @chubnostics so well said american news is evil and very dummy orientated

  • @chubnostics I know exactly what you mean. it was all I could do to keep from punching the fuck out of my monitor.

  • That fellow did a great job with that analogy between poppy seeds and heroin.........he tried to make it easy for the thick-skulled idiots of the world that believe anything to do with "marijuana" HAS to get you high. But, as you see when they get back to the newsrooms, the stupid cunt of reporter starts with the "get high" off of it cracks, "you don't smoke it....?". Stupid idiot! WTF??

    Pull your goddam heads out of your asses people! How out of touch are these whitebred idiots?

  • that lady always talk shit. She needs to learn to control her dumb ass self

  • hemp is not new

  • what is your governments largest cash crop my American friends...........wouldnt be hemp would it.....

  • Ignorant American media puppets, not even one degree of knowledge everything is a joke, hahaha!

  • they should grow all male plants, then we could have fuel, food, cloth.....

  • These peopel are fucking stupid, hemp IS NOT marijuana, why cant people understand theorigin of the ban.

    And the random peopel on the street have no idea what this plant is, that has been around forever, it was a big part of developing america and man kind, and whther you believe it or not, SOCIETY.

    It makes me sad for this countries future...

  • yeah definitely.

  • @dontchokeonthesmoke: We can even thank hemp for a lot of those groovy songs of the '60s and '70s.

  • Soy is unhealthy, hemp isn't.

  • How is soy unhealthy?

  • Fermented soy may be considered healthy though (i'm not taking a stance). But in raw and other forms there are substances that may alter development (phytoestrogens etc), hamper thyroid function, block mineral uptake and other things. You'll find lots of information on this if you search. Many people replace short chain saturated fat (butter/coconut) with margarines. Could be a mistake.

    For a recent article, google: guardian Soya alert over cancer and brain damage link

  • Soy is unhealthy because it contains estrogen, which causes males to be sexually underdeveloped, and females overdeveloped, promoting menstrual cycle as early as 9 years old.

  • Same with milk silly, but that doesnt keep me from my gouda!!!!

  • You've lost me...

  • milk contains estrogen.

    I drink milk and i dont care

    FUCKIGN LOVE gouda

    want me to hold your hands?

  • All i have done is put the information out there which people should know, so for you to talk nonsense to me i know you are definitely a degenerate and devil. Everyone in you tube land can see this. I know that milk contains the bovine growth hormone that would explain your genetically modified intelligence, and or the human strain of mad cow disease : )

  • the devil degenerate? You are a biggot elitist moron fuvk you

  • yes its like comparing the poppy seed to opium, but which is better the hemp seed or the poppy seed? the answer is the better drug.

  • shut up you dumb bitch it doesn't get you high

  • Tastes like shit

  • Well it may not get you high like a marijuana joint, but those news anchors sure are passing that stuff along like it was a joint.

  • but, will the cursed toxic government LEGALIZE hemp/cannabis? oh noooooooooooo, they'd MUCH rather people get killed from health related issues, and to lock them up for hemp usage, than to legalize. that's why they're fvckin MORONS. thank you, obama.

  • the use and possession of hemp is not illegal in the U.S. or any other Developed Western Country

  • take your head out of your ass. it is HIGHLY illegal and is as regulated as a nuclear bomb!

  • That's cannabis you dumb shit. Hemp and cannabis are only in the same family of plants, and that's why they are often confused. The even mentioned that people confuse hemp with cannabis in the video!

  • with a comment that stupid... you must work for the US gov.

  • cannabis in general is feared by the U.S. government. They know it's a miracle plant that has so much uses. Thats why they fear it, its natural and would put so many companies completely out of business. The gov is a bunch of assholes for prohibiting it. It would solve so many problems.

  • This is right,

  • @ruderevival

    The whole health care business would go bankrupt overnight if cannabis became legal. It cures all types of cancer and diseases.

  • you're a fucking idiot. Wait, you're joking right?  Yeah.

  • Comment removed

  • i dont see any hemp feilds anywhere man and im pretty shure that the government wouldent let me grow a feild of hemp

  • Ahaha, please don't compare hemp to soy.

    Soy is trash, 8 times more omega 6 than omega 3. There are also enzymes that bind to protein inhibiting protein absorption as well as phytoestrogens which are really not as good as they are said to be.

  • and soy is terrible for environment. unlike hemp.

  • every one is stoned execpt for him

  • Listen to her she's buzzing already!

  • this is the best news csst ive ever seen

  • I just bought their hemp oil to make salad dressings and it's wonderful. You can't fry with it because it produces trans fats somehow. Hemp milk is great too. Since I've bought the oil and the milk I've decided to include hemp into my daily diet.

  • We need a HEMP explosion.

  • hemp is not the new soy, its the old soy. it was used as food for thousands of years and has many-atime-saved people from mass starvation.

  • comparing weed to heroin fuck you.

  • Hemp is my primary protein source, I love eating it everyday.

    Glad this news station had the brains to do a competent story on hemp foods.

  • Can you tell me where to by hemp, I´ve been trying for a long time but it´s hard to find. I´m not in the US so please online.

    thnx

  • and the THC containing version is just as amazing. For one thing, scientists at Harvard, Columbia and other universities are using it to shrink cancerous tumous. Google "THC Cancer".

  • Obviously it should be legal to grow hemp in the U.S. rather than importing it from other countries. It's such a useful plant and incredibly nutritious. Read about the history of Hemp and be amazed.

  • this is exactly why the WB was never really respected as a real tv network!

  • maybe they should have that stuff of fear factor to show the American public it won't kill you!

  • i wonder if it makes a good tea...

  • it does!

  • You bet, I drink hemp milk and eat hemp seeds in my yogurt. It is healthy and will can save both economics and the planet!

  • I remembered hearing something like George Washington grew hemp, but it is amazing that it is a very good food source.

    I think I also remember hearing recently that California Govenor vetoed allowing the industrial version to be grown in California??? Anybody hear about this?

  • well, this is what i see being a problem... the founding fathers grew cannabis, not just hemp. they grew both. the information about cannabis is gonna (as it looks by the media here) get weeded out. cannabis kills cancer cells. type in cbs harvard lung cancer thc into google. type in thc gbm in google and go to the 2nd website. type in cannabinoid brain cell on google and go to 2nd website (chemical in cannabis produces NEW brain cells). hemp is only the male plant cannabis is the female plant.

  • never heard of thc wtf are these people from another planet

  • CANNABIS WIRD LEGAL IN DER SCHWEIZ!!!

  • "And now for something completely different"? CNN quoting the Monty Pythons? :) Ironic!

  • you want Hemp with all its constituents including THC, you don't even want to

    think about interfering with the health

    and growth of Hemp by trying to have low

    THC Hemp yes, you dont want to have anything

    other than improvements with your Hemp and this naturally includes higher constituent levels including increased THC

  • MAKE PLASTIC FROM HEMP!!!!

  • 99% biodegradable

  • Hmm.. In theory it's very possible!

  • poppy seeds and cocaine lol

    shows how much he know

  • Opium and poppies. Coca leaf and cocaine.

  • the government cannot find a reason why they make marijuana illegal, they say it can kill you, nobody has ever died from marijuana its all bull shit "legalize freedom!"

  • Hemp is an extremely fast growing crop, producing more fiber yield per acre than any other source. Hemp can produce 250% more fiber than cotton and 600% more fiber than flax using the same amount of land. The amount of land needed for obtaining equal yields of fiber place hemp at an advantage over other fibers.

  • Hamp doesn't get you high! For christs sake it's like saying coke cola will get you high. There is absolutely no reason for it to be illegal but say that to the fucking congress, all corrupt assholes.

  • marijuana just keeps on giving

  • "It's because of YOU!" LMAO He's so right. Ask your congressman where his stand is on hemp legislation.

  • I'm sick and tired of people trying to say that hemp is not marijuana. They arent just in the same "family", as one of these guys puts it, they are different VARIETIES of the same plant. Like a cherry tomato verses a Roma.

  • Hey youtube leave this message alone. STOP fucking with World Peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is not SPAM!!!!!!!!!!!!

    THIS is Freedom Of Speech!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Now for a posting all should read to understand more about me anyhow.

    Read the Peter Joyce one.

  • Hey are you all tired of the cops busting you for just having weed?

    Well Al Gore and I really do want to make it legal this year.

    Now guys take this posting and tell everyone to get to Philly ASAP.

    Lets get everyone who wants to see it happen show up.

    Contact the Ron Paul people and Dennis Kucinich ones as well. Ron and Dennis have been helping Al Gore and I for a very long time.

    Get a hold of high times and the Rolling Stones and Maxim Magazine from London to also come ASAP.

  • I think ron paul is really the most qualified candidate out of all of them, but hes too old i think

  • Pretty cool guys this is Jeff fisher

    Now lets go to work and make it happen

  • Guys this Fisher guy is really cool.

    Google Jeff Fisher World Peace

    I am going to post some of his cool shit up here and I hope everyone who wants pot legal to spread the word also.

    Lets all go to Love Park and Party to get rid of Bush and Cheney.

    LJ

    Smoking till I get the munchies

  • Hey guys have you read the comments from Al Gore about Pot on youtube?

  • It was on youtube and then it disappeared.

    I just checked it out and youtube is so fucked up now.

    I think George Bush and fucking cheney are doing something to youtube

  • I am going to see Jeff Fisher in philadelphia about the pot issue.

  • Can you even get high off of hemp?

  • wow, poppy seeds and coke!!! Really glad this fella's representing the cause

  • its just a fucking plant!

    let us harvest!

  • Its people like that who give hemp its stigma

    I wear hemp, I eat it everyday. The snickers and jokes don't help the hemp revolution!

  • She was giggling as though she smoked a FAT one before the broadcast.

  • I find it very sad when the talking heads on the news show how stupid and inexperienced and gulible they must have been as children...the are. what cowards and wasted brains without ever smoking a joint. That is the truth, no brains on no drugs. But tellin us the stoty as pre written for them to read.; fuckin shit for brains... brainwashed idiots who read the news...big deal

  • People are so ignorant.

    INDUSTRIAL HEMP needs to be legalized to grow here in the united states.

    SCREW the oil companies!

    SCREW THEM!

  • Hemp can produce almost everything. Believe or not: Even CEMENT! Hemp oil is the most commonly used product aside from the seeds, and it could even replace oil if we legalized it.. The good things about hemp oil are that it doesn't pollute, can cure any disease known to mankind, even cancer, and contains enough energy to run cars.

    The question goes: WHY THE HELL IS THIS GIFT FROM HEAVENS ILLEGAL!?

  • because the devil has been running the world since 1913... banking industry.

  • HHAHAAHAHA x_x

  • Hemp isn't illegal.

  • it's illegal to grow in the U.S..  We import it from Canada and other places. This is insanely stupid and drives up the cost.

  • The powers that be want to outlaw the natural but Information is power & we will win the war one day!

  • Amen.

  • I guess you have to laugh if you are a stupid news reported because that is the only way to justify our countries stupids policies on hemp.

  • Gah...why couldn't that lady just shut up?

    I feel bad for saying that, but she could have at least tried to have been serious.

  • she's a dumb bitch

  • "... but it looks like salt."

    "But then why is it illegal (to grow)?"

    Probably because of stupid, biased and racist ignorants like you are!

  • Legalize pot!

    (the drug kind)

  • "daaar is hemp a drug? KinDa SorTa"

    Maybe it can educate the tv cult.

  • Soy unfermented is a negitive nutrient and it mimiks estrogen in the body SO have some soy and get out the man-zier for those man boobs!

  • American brains are shrinking from omega 3 deficentcy; 30% protein,

    all 10 Essential Amino Acids,

    Omega 3

    It would tank the big pharma stocks don't ya know;

  • Hemp isn't the 'new soy.' It's better than soy by a long shot!! The female anchor in this clip demonstrates a prime example of blatant ignorance in the media (especially) and the public at large. The health benefits of consuming hemp are absolutely incredible and the potential of the other uses for hemp products are amazing. People need to come out from under the delusional cloud of ignorance and into the light of true knowledge about the many benefits of hemp.

  • Of the 3 million plus edible plants that grow on Earth, no other single plant source can compare with the nutritional value of hempseeds. Both the complete protein and the essential oils contained in hempseeds are in ideal ratios for human nutrition. Sixty-five percent of the protein content in hempseed is in the form of globulin edestin, so that it can actually be used by the body in its raw state (unlike that in soybeans, which have to be cooked or sprouted).

  • I just have to say... at the end of the video "Dr. Mike" shows how little he actually knows by saying tetrahyhroCANNABIS instead of tetrahydrocannabinol which is the actual name for the psychoactive substance (THC). Second, he compared poppy seeds to cocaine, where it is actually heroin, which is the drug that comes from the same plant as poppy seeds (the opium poppy plant).

    This video does well to show how little people actually know about the subject.

  • He probably got disturbed by that giggling woman...

  • Ron Paul totally agrees with hemp and even marijuana legalization, he says that is an adult decision if you want to use it or not.

    And they're thousands of ecological groups supporting this ideas, but i guess you still think that Bush is doing a good job :)

  • like I said. There has to be another candidate who will speak up for hemp for good reasons... What noted ecological group is for the commercial growing of hemp??? I'd really like to know what group of note is

    helping to lobby for hemp.

    please let me know..

    I don't want to get into the war.. as only

    history will tell if ultimately keeping Iraq from getting the Abomb is worth the effort.

    but as far as keeping our borders under control Bush deserves to be impeached.

  • cannabis isn't just good for building shit ... even though it's made into over 25 thousand products from celloph
