I wish I could make it clear for these idiots that bring up the "smoking weed isn't healthy." You're absolutely right, smoking anything at all isnt healthy. But who are they to dictate what we want to put in our own bodies? They don't care about our health personally so I'd wish they'd quit raising our health as an issue.
the 2 pharmaceuticals that are similar to marijuana DON'T contain the same compounds as marijuana...thc, cbd. cbn CANNOT be reproduced synthetically, marinol is not chemically the same as thc...
By the way there is no chemical or substance in weed that makes it addictive so learn that. Now ciggaretts are so why shouldn't that be kept off the market?
Marijuana IS a drug. It gets you HIGH. It gets you FUCKED UP. It alters your brain. You act different on it. You can fall asleep from it. We already have enough legal drugs already. Legalizing them will send a message to the youth that its ok to use drugs and get high. Theres too many drug addicts and drug dealers. We need to get rid of them! You want both drunk AND high drivers on the road. I for one dont!
IF by acting different you mean laugh more, sleep better, be happier, feel relaxed, then by all means it changes the way you act. It doesn't stop the fact that you are still you. It isn't as intense of a drug as people think it is
@tatomuck18 gahahahahahaha are you serious? you have to be kidding right? send a message to youth that its okay? haha the majority of pot smokers are the youth!!! ask the average middle aged guy where to get weed, you know whatr hell tell you? his sons room!
Legalizing drugs will only HELP the drug cartels and addicts!!
If its ILLEGAL, they take SERIOUS RISKS, from buying, selling and possessing it. Having any contact with the drugs while its illegal can put them in jail for decades...
And if its LEGAL, they will have nothing to worry about. They can sell it and possess it all they want BECAUSE ITS LEGAL!
You want these drug cartels to really take over and kill more people and fuck up neighborhoods?
I'm a disabled Veteran I'm prescribed Neurotin, for miagrainsand back spasms, paxil for depression, Ativan for anxiety and panic attacks, Klonipin for onsomnia, and Darviset for pain. I get these from the VA, Tax payer dollars pay for my prescriptions. It's a waste of tax dollars. If it was legal for me to smoke Marajuana, imagine the tax payer dollars we could save, with just me? now think about the millions of other Disabled Veterans that are the same way. Think America!
Here's some food for thought, and it's mysteriously absent from this discussion, is asset forfeiture. This allows the police to "seize" any, cars, homes, valuables, cash after they accuse a person of distribution. This is a big money-maker for law enforcement, and they don't like to talk about it. Furthermore, if you admit guilt to avoid jail, your property is gone. If you win your case, now you get to fight with them in court about the return of your property.
are you high or just blowing smoke? You now want high AND drug drivers on the road. There is ALREADY ENOUGH DRUGS already LEGAL. By legalizing marijuana, your sending a message to the youth that its ok to use drugs, and its ok to get high.
The government show like 40 million commercials every day that advertise legal drugs, alcohol and surgeries that WILL FUCKING KILL YOU! Marijuana has never killed anyone and never will because its impossible.
Now tell me, who's sending a worse message, a marijuana advocate, or the governement that tells you its ok to take those prescriptions with potential deadly side effects?
Prescription drugs NEED A PRESCRIPTION by a LICENSED DOCTOR!!! There is a STRICT DOSE for each time you use them. Its no recreational street fun drug! There are WARNINGS on the label if you take them the wrong way. If you dont have a prescription for that prescription medication, you SHOULDNT BE TAKING IT!!! Thats why you NEED A PRESCRIPTION for it.
Stop trying to mix shit up. You can drink alcohol in moderation without getting drunk. You cant with marijuana. One puff and you will be high.
OK have you ever smoked marijuana? apperently not cause 1 puff will not get you high for some. Marijuana is a lot like drinking. the more you do at one time the more you get high or drunk. It all depends on your body. some bodies can handle a hit and barely get high. some will take a puff and be super high. but it's the same with alcohol. some people can take a shot without even feeling anything. but if i take a shot i already get dizzy and dishoriented.
Theres already way too many drugs already legal. We get dangerous drug addicts and drug dealers everywhere committing crimes and ruining neighborhoods.. It needs to stop. We have to get rid of this and say NO, to drugs! Parents need to step up to the plate and say tell their kids NO! When the DEA gets rid of these criminals, the community applauds them for doing that right thing.
What about alcohol or smoking? or even pills for that matter? pills are not healthy i dont care what they say. you see a commercial for a pill. have you ever heard of a pill that cant cause side effects?
WOW this guy has no clue what he's talking about. I was prescribed xanax by my docor, xanax makes you verry tired, and can be addictive, marijuana may be addictive, but then again so is alcohol and soda... really people, think before you open your ignorent mouth's and listen to what you are saying. You can od on tylonol and asprin, you cant on marijuana. Where is the logic?
in the 5000 years marijuana no person has ever ODed. asprin kills 108 people annualy! Marijuana can help head aches, nausia, and makes a great pain reliever. The side affects of asprin are death, liver failure, seizures and much much more.
While decriminalization would be a lot better than what we've got now, it still leaves an industry worth billions completely unregulated, untaxed, and in the hands of gangs.

remember when reporters use to scof and laugh at cannabis reports, now, they support it, they look like idots now if they dont. You try to argue that cannabis is more harmeful than tobacco you look like an ass that hasn't been wiped.

he had a blank stare most of the time while the "legalizer" and the host smashed his ass. does anyone know of any debates like this that the prohibitionist has won? iv never seen one.
If you want to take action and contact your state repersentatives to tell them to legalize marijuana go to norml(.)org click on take action, then click on what can I do?, then click on contact repersentatives. From there you can send a prewriten E-mail or print out a leter to send to your state repersentatives. Together we can make a difference. Let your voice be heard!
these debate are very funny.... its almost always the same shit... one guy agaisnt says his facts are coorect while the other (who is right) says all his facts... Luckily the new reporter is for legalized marijuna... He is right at the end when he says this is changing.... it realy is i see marijuna legal very soon
Should it be a state issue? Of course it should, it always HAS been, "and to the REPUBLIC for which it stands..." the feds have never had legal right to bust medical marijuana clinics.
it shouldn't be a federal, state, or local issue.. it should be an individual one... seriously, no government should have the right to tell it's citizens what they can and can't do in the privacy of their own home; it's unconstitutional
i got busted for buying 1,5 grams of weed recently
even the police felt guilty (next time be more cautious LOL)
its just sick that this stuff is illegal while so much worse is happening... it costs taxdollars like hell and it has no benefit to prosecute marijuana
Medical marijuana is a term similiar to intelligent design. If you want to smoke pot, go ahead. But lets not pretend this issue is about only helping the sick.
The real problem is that if marijuana is legalized the crime rate will drop dramatically low reducing the # of arrest which will cost ppl like that task force chief there jobs...The economy will suffer due to it. Kinda like whats happening in the netherlands at the moment theres very low crime there which is a severe crisis imagine all those cops that got laid off and all those prisons they closed down...there economy is suffering American does'nt want a repeat of that here.
it is true that police will lose jobs but what about all the other industries that will flourish. food industry, glass makers, and the hemp industry. there are probable more jobs gained thhen lost
Hey theyouthis If you want google up the problems in the netherlands they are findin ways to make up for the lack of crime however check it out for urself and give me ur opinion on it. U make a good point too.
they are taking in prisoners from neighboring countries in exchange for money. as long as these prisoners are people who have proven that they can not live free in society i see no problem with it. it allows them to keep enploying 1200 people and takes stress of the belgian jails. so not only will the jobs stay but the netherlands will end up with a little extra cash in the pocket.
I see you looked it up and yea it seems like a great solution however do you think we would do that? Take in prisoners from south america, africa or the middle east?
many prisons are privitly owned. it probable doesnt matter to them whos paying them to hold prisoners or even if there guilty of anything. put having said that it would be more exspensive to send prisoners here then to build their own prisons(exept maybe canada). if anything i could imagine the american government outsourceing the justice system. That sounds kinda messed up though
lowing the cost of inprisonment by getting other countries to do it for us. lol kinda messed up put i wouldnt put it passed us if the dept gets worse.
Regardless of whether or not we legalize people are still going to smoke. I pray if we do legalize that potency and price are not controlled by the government. I would hate to see the marijuana industry looking like the tobacco or alcohol industry because of the crooked tactics they use to market these items.
it should be highly regulated in my opinion but illegal? were rational human beings and we should understand by now that you cant prosecute people for smoking pot wtf
hey does anybody know who the anchor is? he's alright with me about time an anchor doesn't butcher the guy for weed. at least he gave him a good chance and come on its only time before it becomes legal. we already know its less harmful and yes ill admit it many of the ppl getting permits to smoke it in L.A are just doing so they can get high. BUT doesn't that mean that their will be a market for it. whatever the point is its time for change and we dont have the money to be picky on how we do it.
But this is what I like to see in the news. Anchors AGAINST prohibition. I'm a conservative, but I have absolutely no respect for the people (hypocrites) who oppose the legalization of this plant.
Once again I will say - medical be damned, it is the mildest of any legal or illegal things one can do. People drink, people should be allowed to smoke/ingest marijuana.
It gives a new outlook knowing that some of the top senators and their wives have huge interest in PHARMACEUTICALS (humm) imagine that
The specific delivery systems should be illegal according to this moronic bureaucrat. You can smoke twigs, bibles or chamomile for Christ's sake!
One can still vaporize or cook marijuana and still get the protective and medicinal effects while avoiding the carcinogens involved in burning the material.
This is an old propaganda stunt, move on, you know you're wrong.
Actually there are carcinogens, but the difference is that the THC counteracts the carcinogens. Because there ARE carcinogens, every scientific study conducted has expected there to be a correlation between smoking weed and lung cancer, but have been surprised to not find any correlation.
It's odd how he said "Legitimate medicines" what makes it legit? Being synthetically produced and patented? How about if it.. idk... WORKS???
But, on the other hand, I don't like the "medical uses" argument, even though it's a good one. I think cannabis should be legal for everyone who is of age, because adults have the right to make their own choices about what they consume or do not consume.
For some people there is no other way to take it unless they vaporize it. Some people are so ill they can't eat it. Vaporizing it is a more effective way of delivering it and the effects are felt within seconds. This Old man gets his ass handed to him, he sounds like a idiot just like everybody else thats for keeping weed illegal. The facts are stated day in and day out just get it done. LEGALIZE IT, DON'T CRITICIZE!
Additionally, these anti-drug warriors always seem to forget that drugs are a STATES' RIGHTS issue. Nixon's war on drugs was unconstitutional from the very beginning--the Constitution clearly does not give the federal government the right to regulate substances. This is why alcohol prohibition was enacted through the use of a constitutional AMENDMENT.
The fact is that most of the legal drugs this bureaucrat is referring to contain highly addictive opioid chemicals and can lead to serious addictions like those of Rush Limbaugh. Additionally, many cancer and AIDS patients find these pharmaceutical drugs unpleasant. As far as smoking is concerned, that should be a freedom of the patient. Vaporizing is surely the safest and quickest delivery method but some prefer to smoke and there is nothing wrong with that.
If u have a circus in your head like me or people like Doug Stanhope(great comedian) then alcohol and cannabis are a bliss, docters call it ADD and offer u dangerous drugs so u can be a productive.
This fight/debate reminds me of how flawed our dutch cannabis laws are, they just closed our local coffee shop because they hat more then 500 gram in house, note that this shop has over 900 customers per day, and sell 1 to 5 gram per customer.
that drug enforcment tool was an absolute mess. he didn't have his facts straight, and he looked like he was on meth, he looked sick, maybe he should smoke some "medicine"
Because they seem to put extreme emphasis on medicinal use, and when the reporter mentions people take advantage of the laws to use it recreationally, instead of defending the recreational use, he changes the subject.
(and because on the channel description says "MPP does not promote the illegal use of marijuana.")
Well from my point of view, the MPP is focusing primarily on medical marijuana because it's the first step to changing the policies on cannabis, for all purposes. First, we take care of those who need it, and then we can take care of those who want it. As for the description, I think there's a rational explanation. They do not promote the illegal use of the substance, yes, but they believe that people should have the choice once it's legal. Nobody wants to encourage people to violate the law.
MPP is not addressing the recreational use at this time as the focus is CLEARLY on medical marijuana use! Once it's become legal through out the USA( which it should be)then I strongly believe MPP and other pro weed organizations will tackle the recreational use becoming legal!
GOD DAMN! good work bruce, i love the MPP staff and all they are doing for the world, all i hope is it will some day be legal in other countried in europes other than netherlands

The real problem is that if marijuana is legalized the crime rate will drop dramatically low reducing the # of arrest which will cost ppl like that task force chief there jobs...The economy will suffer due to it. Kinda like whats happening in the netherlands at the moment theres very low crime there which is a severe crisis imagine all those cops that got laid off and all those prisons they closed down...there economy is suffering American does'nt want a repeat of that here.

LuDimezofKush 2 years ago
they are taking in prisoners from neighboring countries in exchange for money. as long as these prisoners are people who have proven that they can not live free in society i see no problem with it. it allows them to keep enploying 1200 people and takes stress of the belgian jails. so not only will the jobs stay but the netherlands will end up with a little extra cash in the pocket.
theyouthis 2 years ago
I see you looked it up and yea it seems like a great solution however do you think we would do that? Take in prisoners from south america, africa or the middle east?
LuDimezofKush 2 years ago
many prisons are privitly owned. it probable doesnt matter to them whos paying them to hold prisoners or even if there guilty of anything. put having said that it would be more exspensive to send prisoners here then to build their own prisons(exept maybe canada). if anything i could imagine the american government outsourceing the justice system. That sounds kinda messed up though

Regardless of whether or not we legalize people are still going to smoke. I pray if we do legalize that potency and price are not controlled by the government.

BUT doesn't that mean that their will be a market for it. whatever the point is its time for change and we dont have the money to be picky on how we do it.

The specific delivery systems should be illegal according to this moronic bureaucrat. You can smoke twigs, bibles or chamomile for Christ's sake!
One can still vaporize or cook marijuana and still get the protective and medicinal effects while avoiding the carcinogens involved in burning the material.
This is an old propaganda stunt, move on, you know you're wrong.
rhysie21 2 years ago
FYI there are not carcinogens in marijuana. smoked or not, it has not possible chance to give you any form of cancer.
soulforged789 2 years ago
Actually there are carcinogens, but the difference is that the THC counteracts the carcinogens. Because there ARE carcinogens, every scientific study conducted has expected there to be a correlation between smoking weed and lung cancer, but have been surprised to not find any correlation.
thawhiteazn 2 years ago
It's odd how he said "Legitimate medicines" what makes it legit? Being synthetically produced and patented? How about if it.. idk... WORKS???
But, on the other hand, I don't like the "medical uses" argument, even though it's a good one. I think cannabis should be legal for everyone who is of age, because adults have the right to make their own choices about what they consume or do not consume.

For some people there is no other way to take it unless they vaporize it. Some people are so ill they can't eat it. Vaporizing it is a more effective way of delivering it and the effects are felt within seconds.

Additionally, these anti-drug warriors always seem to forget that drugs are a STATES' RIGHTS issue. Nixon's war on drugs was unconstitutional from the very beginning--the Constitution clearly does not give the federal government the right to regulate substances. This is why alcohol prohibition was enacted through the use of a constitutional AMENDMENT.
LPBguy 2 years ago
The fact is that most of the legal drugs this bureaucrat is referring to contain highly addictive opioid chemicals and can lead to serious addictions like those of Rush Limbaugh. Additionally, many cancer and AIDS patients find these pharmaceutical drugs unpleasant. As far as smoking is concerned, that should be a freedom of the patient. Vaporizing is surely the safest and quickest delivery method but some prefer to smoke and there is nothing wrong with that.

Cheedillow 2 years ago
What makes you think that? (I'm not criticizing your idea, I'm just wondering)
BHE396 2 years ago
Because they seem to put extreme emphasis on medicinal use, and when the reporter mentions people take advantage of the laws to use it recreationally, instead of defending the recreational use, he changes the subject.
(and because on the channel description says "MPP does not promote the illegal use of marijuana.")
Cheedillow 2 years ago
Well from my point of view, the MPP is focusing primarily on medical marijuana because it's the first step to changing the policies on cannabis, for all purposes. First, we take care of those who need it, and then we can take care of those who want it. As for the description, I think there's a rational explanation. They do not promote the illegal use of the substance, yes, but they believe that people should have the choice once it's legal. Nobody wants to encourage people to violate the law.
