Marijuana Debate Ron Paul

[xRAWRER]

Wow, if I was Ron I would of got pissed and told that disrespectful dick to shut the hell up and let me finish.

[lvivboi]

obama's voice is so good to listen to stoned.

[WS19771]

Its funny how this stupid woman has Mr Paul and that other jabronie on the show and neither will let Mr Paul answer a question much less view his own points. It just shows how biased and controlled these so called reporters are. They dont report anything, they just do what there told by the people who control and manipulate the news for their own benefit. It also shows how stupid people who believe that the war on drugs is a success, the truth is the war on drugs is a tremendous waste of money.

[tigerjonn]

POTENCY GOES UP, so less marijuana has to be injested = less smoke in lungs, so its healtheir for you.

[dracco73]

As long as it's illegal, the criminals control it. Istook is an idiot. Ron Paul allowed him to speak and that fat fuckin tard interrupted him everytime. The users will use regardless of illegality. To keep it illegal allows the control to be in the hands of violent criminals. FAT FUCKING IDIOTS like Istook are the reason we have a "drug" problem.

[christianz2010]

its not a FUCKING debate, if you want to stop the war in Mexico,Stop non violent offenders to get raped in prison, stop our cops from waiting time with some smoking high school kids,stop wasting billions of fucking dollars fighting a plant,

stop scaring citizens record for using a plant, stop bending over to rich pharmaceutical comapies, stop bending over to beer companies, stop being paranoid with the reefer madness the gov shoved into your brains, make it legal because racists made it illegal,

[itsuart]

Yes stupid ! Look at all the broken homes in Holland and all the drug problems there. They´re much much less than in America dummy !

[jwka2001]

this guy debating with Paul is a fucking idiot. I bet he is on the take

[beta447]

likely to be a gateway drug than it was before. So #1, he's ambiguous as to whether or not it is, and #2 There was never any evidence that it was a gateway drug, and in fact there is evidence it may in fact be an "exit" drug. How would legalization make it more of a gateway drug? There is no specific evidence he can point to because it has never been done. The experiment in Portugal doesn't indicate this does it? ** 8) ** He mentions "opium" so you know he's full of shit. No1 smokes that nemore.

[beta447]

cancer has been demonstrated. 5) Therefor, don't tell me you need it for medical purposes. -- As though the carcinogenic component negates the therapeutic component, for which there is no evidence. 6) The cost is also in broken homes (which marijuana does not in itself lead to), lost jobs (stereotype that all pot smokers are lazy/good4nothing), look at the cost in drug legalization generally (which tends to decrease all problems associated with drugs) 7) Legalization overall will make weed more

[beta447]

Has anyone noticed that whenever there's a response to marijuana legalization/medical marijuana, it's always the same couple of bullshit points in the same order? !) It's no time to surrender (even tho the war is already lost) 2) fewer teenagers smoke weed 3) Big Pharma makes marinol, so you don't need weed. Aka if you get it this way and get sick when you take it, good. If you take it this way and feel fine you go to jail. 4) Weed smoke has 4x the tar of Tobacco smoke, even though no link to

[diamelo]

wtf the guy says marijuana has 4x times the tar he didn't even mention that its only when you smoke it like a cigarette in a joint most people i know use a vaporizer and a bong and its a lot less and why interrupt Ron Paul its clear that they know that he has better points on this topic. They have to learn that they can not beat Ron in a debate they will always lose....

[dracco73]

@diamelo Exactly man!!! The interrupted him because they know he's right!!!

[zobcity01]

unbelievable lack of virtues and integrity excuse making paul does.

no wonder we got a muslim for a leader , with paul in office we would be definitely be doomed!

[jackblacksutube]

thank god this mans repping texas... atleast for my sake

[music4ever550]

they did a test recently and weed does NOT affect operation of motor vehicles

[MrTruthseeker69]

Ernest is one ugly motherfucker

[kuza01]

"No Bias, No Bull" - CNN <----- Hahahaha what a fucking joke!

CNN + Fox News = Dumbing down the people.

[rmccay88]

@kuza01

That's exactly right! I was dumbed down for years sadly from watching Fox and O'Reilly so much. Thank God I am cured

[All4RonPaul]

If there's more THC in the plant, people would smoke less of it. And they would know it was strong within seconds. There is NO danger in marijuana besides the potential police brutality you may face. As for Ishtook - he makes up statistics about how much teen use has come down in each interview he participates in. And there's no tar or harm to your lungs if you use a vaporizer or eat marijuana baked products. Gateway drug argument is a joke. Ishtook is an ass for trying to talk over Ron.

[AntiPsychopath]

Conclusion = Obama is duped or is in it.....its insane.

[imluvinyourmum]

not 1 good argument

the more people that smoke/have smoked it, the WORSE the laws are

what pot from the 70's? there isnt a set potency for it at any particular time, it differs

The enforcement costs are curently through the roof, the taxing of marijuana would make money, no economist would doubt that. And what 'extra' enforcement? they're stoners!

And what does he mean you cant label it with how strong it is, he just said he knows 'its' twice as potent as in the 70's!

[brunkarn654]

OMG i'm so sick and tired of this bullshit. Clearly CNN sympathizes with Ernest Istook. It's just so ridiculous how Ron constantly is being interrupted. But I guess you can't expect too much of CNN...

[beauhagan]

It could not be more clear that CNN allowed Istook to get more time, and also allowed him to talk over Paul. It also could not be more clear that the prohibitionists are wrong, and that Istook is a douche.

[JohnBreadForger]

Me suspects Ernest doesn't understand Supreme Court law, the controversy of it, or the constitution.

[Anton338]

Ernest, you sir, are made of bull feces.

THANK YOU RON PAUL for trying to open America's eyes!

Weed is not addictive, nobody has ever died from it, taxing it would SAVE wall street once and for all!... and if its legalized then nobody would be going to jail for use of this magical plant which means less money spent to support jails!

[PR13STG0RD0]

Exaclty, will common sense win over people in the next election? hopefully we can save those who aren't completely brain-dead by 2010 mid-terms and the 2012 election. Time for some real change! Time to wake up the people! Restore the republic! Ron Paul 2012!

[WarDogLRS]

Way to go voters you just keep missing the mark

stay out of the voting booth.

[PeoplesVendetta]

If I were Ron Paul, I would have taken off my mic in the middle of the interview after that asswipe talked over him and that stupid bitch allowed it to happen and gave that douche more time. RON PAUL MAN UP! Dont take that shit!

[PeoplesVendetta]

Ernest is a piece of shit with no respect to the Constitution or Ron Paul.

[PeoplesVendetta]

That tom foreman is an idiot citing the potency as if thats something bad. More potency means LESS SMOKE you fucking douche.

[readeyesoljah]

i've noticed that EVERY time Dr. Ron Paul is interviewed/debated on air,aside from the glen beck or Rachel Maddow show.those fuckin anchors try their best to make him look bad and try to avoid an Actual debate...in this case cambell brown says "ïm gonna let you respond to that" then tells him to "go back to the question"refering to the border and how it would be affected, he was interuppted when he did this by that prick then never given the chance to respond because of time issues...

[StonedOrcs]

"Marijuana has 4 times the tar as tabacco smoke", "Its has 400 harmful substances in it", I can't believe someone would say all this bullshit and on national TV! What a moron!

[PR13STG0RD0]

To the ignorant ex-congressman... Marinol makes cancer patients sick. It doesn't work. You may have brought MJ usage down %25 when you beefed up prohibition enforcement for a brief time, but the people want their rights to self-medicate. That's disrespectful to the people's rights. The war on drugs costs too much and doesn't work. Also MJ will be the #1 cash crop to pull our cookies out of the fire in this recession!

[chungo608]

HEY ERNEST you say marijuana has 4 times the tar of cigarettes but why is there 400,000 deaths related to nicotine and zero fatalities for cannabis use? you also noted it that weed has 400 chemicals in cannabis which is natural in nature,and cigarettes has over 4000 chems which include rat poison,cyanide, Insecticide ,Cadmium: Used in batteries. You obvisously dont talk about that? Gateway theory>? ive smoked cannabis for 6 years so far and have not done and will never do cocaine,heroin,meth,

[PR13STG0RD0]

The other side of the fence seldom does their research, Chungo608. They only talk over the patriots like Ron Paul like the ex-congressman idiot lobbyist-sucker in this video! Cigarettes kill! Cannabis doesn't! LEGALIZE IT!

[chungo608]

Your on my level Priest

[PR13STG0RD0]

Just fighting the good fight, man. There's too much bullshit from too many bullshitters and because of that, they pull the strings. If we have to educate every jackassed-mule in the united states to bring about common sense, let's do it. Every freedom-loving patriot has to talk sense into the clods of the gene-pool before we blow each other up or starve to keep the "elites" alive.

[thccorp]

Same ole propaganda, they are desperate because the cash cow is slowly dieing. Ron Paul's point about the border was completely ignored by the ignorant Ernest, And WTF, Gateway drug? this has been proven a crack POT theory by some of the most prestigious medical teaching institutions in the world, But Ernest knows. The law never stopped anyone from doing what they wanted, if it did there would be no prisons, Amerika?

[doingear]

it really pisses me off at how Earnest cant show Ron Paul respect. Let the man get his point across!!!

[UFOscience]

"you can fool some people sometimes, but you cant fool all the people all the time"- Marley

americas waking up, the government trusting, brainwashed baby boom generation is fading, OUR generation is transitioning into the spot light. make your voice and opinions heard, it is YOUR future, how do you want to live? YOU matter.

[William971]

bahahaha source : DEA... thats not a bias/government funded thinktank?! eat shit

[William971]

fucking retards laughing in background..we will get the last laugh fuckers! you will see

[Cloud87man]

Holy smokes I wanted to turn this off as soon as Istook began talking. "This is no time to surrender!"

[code05]

haha, no surrender- pop pop

[MrLibertyNow]

Yep. He's playing completely on emotion.

"This is no time to surrender" is a completely emotional argument, it makes it sound like anti-drug war people are defeatists.

[William971]

i dont think stook's statement has anything to do with defeatism. hes just overdramatizing the war on drugs..u kno like the stupid movies americans watch, albeit there more honest than his bias bullshit.

[mrtrcook567]

Rand Paul, son of Ron Paul is running for Senate in 2010. Make sure to google him and pledge support for the money bomb

[RonPaulArchives]

Hell yeah!

thanks for the comment!

[Ocheck86]

this is old

[RonPaulArchives]

Only a couple of months...

[LibertaerUeberAlles]

Apparently that guy's top donor was a group representing law firms and trial lawyers. I bet legalizing drugs would sure put a dent in their business LOL!

Go Ron Paul!

[RonPaulArchives]

Thats a very good point!

Thanks for that. I will use it next time in an argument!
