Obama's actions (and inaction) regarding marijuana are extremely telling as to what's up in this country and the massive system that depends on it being illegal. It just works so much better when it's illegal. Making sense that it shouldn't be illegal just doesn't factor into it. I honestly believe that no one that would legalize drugs could be elected president. Even if everyone intellectually understand why it should happen, who is going to be that one that unplugs that massive machine?
The facts aren't enough. The media and people in general are learning the lessons that Jim Gray is teaching but no change is happening. Too much profit in the hands of people making decisions gauruntees it will never be legal.
Most people i know are only teetering between den and republican because of drug reform and gay marriage. What would one say to convince potential dems to cross over?
Except that bogeyman "Osama bin Laden" is no longer supposedly "guarding" the poppies in Afghanistan -- it's the US Military. And as for using drugs as a primary source of funding, let's not forget the CIA in the Contras, using a war to reinstate the opium industry in Afghanistan after 9/11, flooding the ghettos with lucrative crack cocaine, etc.!
A very articulate speech about the errors of government in dealing with drugs...amazing there are so many trolls commenting on this video....this is a sign that the message is clear and important.
when alcohol was banned due to the constitutional amendment for that short period, productivity had increased and accidents had decreased because people weren't drinking casually during the day. Even though the bootleg market was big, it was nothing that was affecting people in the public anymore. The same principal can and should be applied to any of these other drugs.
@randomlyunknown2012 The overdose and murder rates went up considerably? Did you know that? What happened when alcohol prohibition was repealed? Overdoses went down and the murder rate dropped. Two tiny facts out of many that you are omitting.
Statement#1 right off the bat; this ignorance cannot be allowed. Not only does it affect what happens on freeways, but equipment operators, etc... kill when they're on drugs.

The men is so right. Being from Holland I can confirm. Here smoking pot is boring, nothing cool. Most people do it for a while when they are fairly young and after that the can't be bothered. And having worked for a US company: whenever my colleagues from the US were over they still thought it was soooooo cool.... Not over here...
@Mastersteef123 I can't say that I WOULD be surprised. I spend a few quality moments every day shoveling that shit out. of my beleaguered mind. My conclusion is the the U.S., of which I am a loving citizen, is basically a country of idiots, at least in this current generation. "Why" is a pretty compelling question.
Fantastic video. He mentioned the companies that benefit from drug prohibition generally but only specifically mentioned the ones that benefit directly. He missed the lumber industry, the textile industry, the pharmaceutical industry, the alcohol industry. All these industries benefit as well.
You need to be 18, not 16 too go to a coffee-shop. But It's true that drug consumption is indeed low compared to other European countries (especially Spain) and America.
Also he forgets to tell the greatest benefit. You no longer need to smoke cannabis that has clearly been in someones pocket, or in between ass-cheeks.
I agree to this, the drug problems here in the netherlands are mainly caused by foreigners coming here to smoke the weed legally. Even so, the system still works well and imagine how good it would work if the world actually agreed to this, weed is also less harmful than alcohol so why its banned is a mystery!
also: im 20 years old and never used any kind of drug beside alcohol(if you see that as a drug)
I am dutch as well. I don not think that it has become boring here, but just something that is normal. You do not use alcohol before driving, working etc. I think people here think the same about hasj, cannabis etc, just use it in the right way. By just scaring people and telling them it is dangerous and illegal will not solve any problem.
But holland is going in the wrong direction today when we look at drug policies. First the banning of mushrooms, and now stricter laws for coffee shops..
its funny how the same people who think plants should be illegal, also think that jesus personally crafted those plants on the third day to have ever existed ever.

First off I agree with most of this video. I have a comment and a question:
It's important for everyone to realize that it's not republicans or bush or Reagan that us responsible for this problem. It's the government in general. As in, it's not a dem. vs rep issue even if that's what they tell you .
My question: wouldn't the drugs lords and terrorists STILL make billions by selling drugs? I mean it wouldn't hurt revenue a whole lot if their product was taxed....
@universologist Go back to when alcohol was illegal. There was a huge amount of violent crime and the like, once it was legalized (again), the gangs and violence dissolved a few years later. Same thing will happen with the cartels. Are you going to buy marijuana (particularly) or any other drug from a clerk in a regulated store, or from some shady dealer?
If something that people want goes unregulated, people like the cartels pop up, selling to whomever and killing those that get in their way.
Yeah I get all that but i dont think you understand my question. or maybe i didnt explain properly. remember, the part where i said i agree with the video?
let me rephrase my question: all those drug field owners still own their drug fields when drugs are legalized. so instead of selling it to shady dealers, they sell it to a regulated store. they still make huge amounts of money, but maybe not as must as before. i'm asking if legalization would prevent that from happening?
@universologist Some probably will, but a lot won't due to punishment they could receive. The risk isn't worth it for most people. There are a lot of factors mostly being negative of getting pot from unauthorized dealers like say, the cartel. They could get conned, get put in prison, get killed ect... They would fund organized crime, which I'm sure most people won't do. Lastly the product could be bad, damaged, ect...
Are gangs like the Capones still around selling alcohol to regulated stores?
think about it, why would a shop buy it's marijuana stock from an illegal grower in mexico or import it's opium from thousands of miles away in afghanistan when they could get it from america?
This needs to go viral. I ask everyone who likes this video to post it on their blogs, twitters, face book accounts, and what-ever else you can think of. I'm tiered of seeing the senseless destruction of our forests, senseless death, senseless arrests, senseless prison sentences that turn non-violent people into criminals, depriving them of so many liberties our country has to offer. So please, post a link to everyone you know, do it for the lives and futures of so many people, and our liberty.
Judge Jim Gray is very reasonable and should be considered to be the vice president for the top Presidential runner Ron Paul, they would be a formidable team.
Big pharm and the major brewer/distillers don't like it either.
A great deal of the original reefer madness hoo-hah in the 30's was Dupont's effort to crush the American hemp industry so that they could sell nylon.
I Really enjoyed the video, but there surely is a 7th entity stopping the legalisation of drugs ( cannabis specifically ) is the massive pharmicutical. Companies, who push manufactured drugs over this wonder plant and also deem fit to take cannabis and pass of sativex as something that works and is better than the real deal!
I think it's fantastic a conservative judge had the courage to speak up like this, even now.
It's a shame that here, in the United Kingdom, there's no chance for any realistic reform based on scientific evidence and public freedom until at least the next general election, and I predict potentially a while longer than that.
Then there's all those lives that are currently ruined for consumers and their families, from criminal records. All that potential future taxation from employment can be utilized in a beneficial way instead of having to pay for those people to live the remainder of their working lives on benefits. Cash top ups for the system instead of drains = common sense. There is no crime and no victim. Just the potential to boost our farming and lift the population's mood.
The point he made about "making pot boring" makes sense. When I when in highschool drinking underage was the most exciting past time a teen could have, yet now that I can buy the legal way, it's lost much of it's luster (Kind of)
The best thing you can do for America is expose the CIA involvement with black market drugs to fund their covert operations e.g. Mena,AK etc. They are the number 1 beneficiary of drug prohibition and profit the most from it since they do it with a badge and a gun.
Hemp is once again the patriotic crop! From stalk to flower, fiber to medicine, paper, clothing, building materials, we need this crop back in the ecosystem, and the economy! True patriots are being ignored on CNN! No mention of Ron Paul or Gary Johnson. Who are they to define fringe? And why was Gary Johnson denied a place at the Republican debate hosted by CNN?
It's been a long time coming but I think we're getting close. I can honestly say that we might actually have cannabis and other natural mind altering substances legalized in the next decade. Something I would not have believed 2 years ago.
See the problem with your perspective is you believe in responsible gun ownership, but not in responsible use of substances. The notion that legislating guns leads to more crime, but legislating drugs leads to better society, is not consistent. You can't make that argument for guns and not make that argument for everything else.
@CDubSD Your argument doesn't make any sense. You pointed out keeping guns illegal just leads to more gun violence from illegal guns. Interesting. But yet you believe the opposite applies to drugs, that we should legislate drug use and sale but not legislate the use and sale of guns?
I think you need to watch this video again. It's really hard to take you seriously if you aren't going to at least be consistent.
"Drug Prohibition is the Golden Goose of Terrorism"
"If our government really wanted to do something damaging to terrorist groups around the world, they would take the one step that would do that: REPEAL DRUG PROHIBITION" ~ Judge Jim Gray
I'm sorry, but this guy has absolutely ZERO plan for legalizing drugs. What about heroin, meth, cocaine, crack, etc.? Who gets to chose which are the "good drugs" and which are the "bad drugs"? There are always winners and losers in any area.
And what he doesn't understand is that US is not like Holland in almost all respects. Regardless of if its legal, we are Americans, We work harder and we play harder...simple fact. Holland is small and artsy, the US is a gigantic melting-pot of crazy.
@CDubSD It's not really a matter of good drugs and bad drugs, it's about prohibition itself. Legal status has no effect on usage. It's logical to assume illegality is a deterrent but it's not actually the case. Looking at every country in the world, population vs. usage statistics....Countries where drugs are legal (like Portugal) always have a lower rate of usage. Counter-intuitive but true
@CDubSD, you are so right, Americans work really hard to stay ignorant to the fact that it is based on human behavior. You and your fellow countrymen should think about why it is that 25% of all people in prison worldwide are imprisoned in the U.S. of A. So either you are a bunch of criminal minds and therefore gives us, the rest of the world, no reason at all to listen to your silly arguments. Or there is something fundamentally wrong with the system. Anyway, STOP PREACHING TO THE REST
@Sool101 Ignorance is bliss to you, isn't it? Blaming it all on the US. You ever think that the reason the US has more people incarcerated is because the US has the most effective and sophisticated legal system in the world? Drug cartels and other illegal foreign operations are practically running their governments in countries all over the world. You think they're going to imprison themselves? Maybe its the rest of the world...bc 27% of the US's federal prison population are illegal immigrants
@CDubSD 'Not blaming anybody, just giving you some facts. Apparently you work and play harder but i doubt you have set foot here to prove your point. 'See, fortunately we've learned that slapping our children around doesn't contribute to their happiness. The same goes for adults. And legalization takes all the air out of those organizations that your country is so afraid of and it will make farmers grow crops again :) btw, any 3rd world country can achieve 98% conviction rate if as racist as US.
@Sool101 Where is "here"? Because I've set foot on 4 continents and several countries in this world. I've been to other places and enjoyed visiting them. However there is no other country I'd rather live in.
Punishment is necessary for a thriving society. Political correctness is one of the worst things for the United States. Let's call a spade a spade. Additionally, I'd rather support an Army to fight drug lords than pay the medical bills for addicts. It's all about perspective.
@CDubSD Thank you for your answer CDubSD, I do appreciate it. If you are a real patriot and want to save your children from the asshole pusher on the street, legalization is the only way. Guns have only contributed to more pain and violence but it is obvious that a mind of your own is all it takes to change your opinion. A patriot and a parrot are not the same. I wish you well.
@Sool101: Don't even get me started on how gun control in the US actually increases crime rates. Yes, I own a gun and there has been zero violence surrounding it. 95% of all gun violence comes from illegally possessed firearms. I'm guessing you're a liberal because you tend to place blame anywhere and everywhere except where it should be placed. The US's drug laws don't help terrorists, the people that buy illegal drugs do. Blame them, not the laws set up to prevent their usage.
Yes the right thing to do is as he said. But how the world works is another matter. The system needs drugs, it needs gangsters, it needs drug filled housing projects, it needs prisons, it needs delinquents, it needs social workers, it needs to continue unrest in latin america and asia, it needs war. Heroin from afghanistan doesnt reach the cities of the west on its own. The system makes damn sure it reaches our shores/airports. Same with columbian coke. And be real, thats how it will stay.
I want the Honorable Judge Jim Gray to either be President or our National Drug Policy Czar. Like he said, within a few years, the whole stigma would be worn off & it'll become like having a beer or wine.
If this guy put his name in for president, I think alot of progressive young people who realize that the system in place isn't working would seriously consider him. Excellent points and thoughts, keeping the old ideology on drugs isn't helping anyone.
Wow it takes a judge to say this before people will listen. It amazes me the level of stupidly running our country for so long. We understand everything he has said when we where teenagers. And most important, the biggest problem for addition is not drugs is food and fat people. If people should get looked down upon it's these attics.
The government might not have any more of a right to control what we take into our bodies than they do in our minds but they are supposed to protect the public. I think educating the public about the effects and power of drugs is important. Maybe approaching drug crimes differently is important. Things could be better and I'm not saying I support criminalization. I'm saying we should consider the value of controlling through other means. This guy is on the right track.

You forgot group #7 - The Tobacco and Alcohol lobbies. The prohibition of safe, effective and non-addictive recreational drugs is the only thing stopping those dinosaurs from going extinct.
OMG you mean that god Jesus and science all say that the prohibition of drugs isn't holy sanctum and to say anything else is so silly that it must be punished like they do in the middle east by stoning the victim and rewarding the criminal.
Excellent video! It seems that awareness is increasing more rapidly than it was 20 yrs. ago. Like everything else, this issue is going to have to be forced down the throats of all the groups that benefit from keeping it illegal. Change will come, but we must MAKE it happen. It won't happen on it's own! It is fortunate that people like Judge Jim Gray, and the law enforcement personnel associated with LEAP, are courageous enough to speak out for what they know is right. It is appreciated.
Smart guy. ... I can see the justification for keeping hard drugs like heroin illegal. But the representatives who write and pass mandatory minimum laws putting people in prison for 10 or 20 years for a first time offense of selling a few bottles of prescription pills... or a couple of ounces of heroin, crack whatever... that is by far a greater evil. Such laws ruin more peoples' lives than individual dealers of whatever drug you can name.
Jim Gray is amazing, more people need to get their heads out of their asses.
In my opinion, he forgot the 7th group that is winning from the drug war: the pharmaceutical industry that would go out of business if weed was legalized.
we took an anonymous poll in my psychology class and more than half of the students said they drank (underage) and did drugs because it seemed cool to do something illegal.... I dont think it would stop people by any means by taking out drug and alcohol laws but i think it would slow people down.
If you bothered to read the video description, it says Jim Gray is a conservative judge. Your comments prove that Democrats have as much sense as Republicans.
@PalmliX dont speak to something you don't know i am a conservayive republican who has and would like to consume pot. does this shock you i believe it should be legal for many reasons the first and foremost is taking away someones personal liberties is in no way apealling to me!
@tvicena Hey sorry you're right. When I initially made that comment I was thinking more about the average republican politician than republican voters.The same can really be said for any politicians. I agree with you totally about personal liberties, and pot :D
I don't smoke, I don't drink, and I've never even tried an illegal drug. But I support a reform of drug laws. The people I've been around who drink nearly ruined my life (and DID ruin theirs). Smoking hurts both the smoker and the people/animals around them. The pot users I've seen are mellow. I'd love to see pot made legal and taxed for extra government income, instead of having millions of dollars wasted against such an unharmful drug. The harder stuff is different, though.
...funny that this was all started by the Dutch and British East Indies Company that hybrid stronger Opium in Europe and cultivated it in India, got China hooked and the rest is History... the Sun never set on the on the Red Terrorist Empire... still... the US is the enforcement of this World Empire...
Nobody, ever, will make human beings stop using drugs. Drugs are part of mens evolution and destiny wether u like it or not. Drugs of any kind, have been here before the beggining of mankind and they will last even after man is gone from earth. Nobody really knows the true statistics, but maybe 50% of humans take drugs and the other 50% dont. To prohibit drugs is the most stupid ludicrous purpose of some leaders thoroughout the planet. Stop dumb leaders from enforcing antinatural antidrugs laws
what ever happened to basic human rights ....lets start the argument from where it starts....its nobody's business```if i choose to drink or smoke a dooby or rock climb or drive my car etc etc etc etc
The Judge says that use "will increase" as bad point number 6 if we legalized just that one intoxicant. Judging by the per capita preprohibition use of alcohol, the use increased while it was a crime to use it. Society grew into a gangster lifestyle for both those involved and the innocents around them. After it was repealed, the use of alcohol increased for a short time, then leveled back off to preprohibition levels. The same will happen when we stop trying to control others pain levels. Cont.
@Cont, currently this is a 'pay to play' to get your pain relief, legitimate pain relief. Who in their right mind that wrote our Constitution ever thought that anyone would even consider the idea into a law to prevent others from obtaining their pain relief? They knew very well of intoxicants, so much so that there is nary a word about that, inalienable right in their official gov documents. Who would be foolish enough? Organized criminals is who.
All "drugs" are what can be classed as "intoxicants". Threy have legalized a certain right of the intoxicant liquor, alcohol the3 worst chemical a human can use to intoxicate themselves. The ninth amendment demands the legalization of ALL OTHER intoxicants. Go read it with the "intoxicating liquors" as the certain right enumerated. It is not about medicinal use, it is the intoxicant use that must be legal. ALL intoxicants, not just weed.
So, judge what are you going to do to change this, other than talking about it on here and other venues?
is anyone listening to you?
anyone that can really change this issue?
probably not, like what you stand for , like what i hear from you..but no one that makes the changes agrees with you and you are lumped into the same group as the rest of us.
sad..fail on the war on drugs.
keep fighting though..we need people with your standing fighting on this side
Obama's actions (and inaction) regarding marijuana are extremely telling as to what's up in this country and the massive system that depends on it being illegal. It just works so much better when it's illegal. Making sense that it shouldn't be illegal just doesn't factor into it. I honestly believe that no one that would legalize drugs could be elected president. Even if everyone intellectually understand why it should happen, who is going to be that one that unplugs that massive machine?

It's important for everyone to realize that it's not republicans or bush or Reagan that us responsible for this problem. It's the government in general. As in, it's not a dem. vs rep issue even if that's what they tell you .
My question: wouldn't the drugs lords and terrorists STILL make billions by selling drugs? I mean it wouldn't hurt revenue a whole lot if their product was taxed....
universologist 5 months ago
@universologist Go back to when alcohol was illegal. There was a huge amount of violent crime and the like, once it was legalized (again), the gangs and violence dissolved a few years later. Same thing will happen with the cartels. Are you going to buy marijuana (particularly) or any other drug from a clerk in a regulated store, or from some shady dealer?
If something that people want goes unregulated, people like the cartels pop up, selling to whomever and killing those that get in their way.
MCstrickG6 5 months ago
@MCstrickG6
Yeah I get all that but i dont think you understand my question. or maybe i didnt explain properly. remember, the part where i said i agree with the video?
let me rephrase my question: all those drug field owners still own their drug fields when drugs are legalized. so instead of selling it to shady dealers, they sell it to a regulated store. they still make huge amounts of money, but maybe not as must as before. i'm asking if legalization would prevent that from happening?
universologist 5 months ago
@universologist Some probably will, but a lot won't due to punishment they could receive. The risk isn't worth it for most people. There are a lot of factors mostly being negative of getting pot from unauthorized dealers like say, the cartel. They could get conned, get put in prison, get killed ect... They would fund organized crime, which I'm sure most people won't do. Lastly the product could be bad, damaged, ect...
Are gangs like the Capones still around selling alcohol to regulated stores?

Then there's all those lives that are currently ruined for consumers and their families, from criminal records. All that potential future taxation from employment can be utilized in a beneficial way instead of having to pay for those people to live the remainder of their working lives on benefits. Cash top ups for the system instead of drains = common sense. There is no crime and no victim. Just the potential to boost our farming and lift the population's mood.

See the problem with your perspective is you believe in responsible gun ownership, but not in responsible use of substances. The notion that legislating guns leads to more crime, but legislating drugs leads to better society, is not consistent. You can't make that argument for guns and not make that argument for everything else.
ece421 9 months ago
@CDubSD Your argument doesn't make any sense. You pointed out keeping guns illegal just leads to more gun violence from illegal guns. Interesting. But yet you believe the opposite applies to drugs, that we should legislate drug use and sale but not legislate the use and sale of guns?
I think you need to watch this video again. It's really hard to take you seriously if you aren't going to at least be consistent.

CDubSD 11 months ago
@CDubSD It's not really a matter of good drugs and bad drugs, it's about prohibition itself. Legal status has no effect on usage. It's logical to assume illegality is a deterrent but it's not actually the case. Looking at every country in the world, population vs. usage statistics....Countries where drugs are legal (like Portugal) always have a lower rate of usage. Counter-intuitive but true

@CDubSD, you are so right, Americans work really hard to stay ignorant to the fact that it is based on human behavior. You and your fellow countrymen should think about why it is that 25% of all people in prison worldwide are imprisoned in the U.S. of A. So either you are a bunch of criminal minds and therefore gives us, the rest of the world, no reason at all to listen to your silly arguments. Or there is something fundamentally wrong with the system. Anyway, STOP PREACHING TO THE REST

@CDubSD Thank you for your answer CDubSD, I do appreciate it. If you are a real patriot and want to save your children from the asshole pusher on the street, legalization is the only way. Guns have only contributed to more pain and violence but it is obvious that a mind of your own is all it takes to change your opinion. A patriot and a parrot are not the same. I wish you well.
Sool101 9 months ago
@Sool101: Don't even get me started on how gun control in the US actually increases crime rates. Yes, I own a gun and there has been zero violence surrounding it. 95% of all gun violence comes from illegally possessed firearms. I'm guessing you're a liberal because you tend to place blame anywhere and everywhere except where it should be placed. The US's drug laws don't help terrorists, the people that buy illegal drugs do. Blame them, not the laws set up to prevent their usage.

I think educating the public about the effects and power of drugs is important. Maybe approaching drug crimes differently is important.

Smart guy. ... I can see the justification for keeping hard drugs like heroin illegal. But the representatives who write and pass mandatory minimum laws putting people in prison for 10 or 20 years for a first time offense of selling a few bottles of prescription pills... or a couple of ounces of heroin, crack whatever... that is by far a greater evil. Such laws ruin more peoples' lives than individual dealers of whatever drug you can name.

The Judge says that use "will increase" as bad point number 6 if we legalized just that one intoxicant. Judging by the per capita preprohibition use of alcohol, the use increased while it was a crime to use it. Society grew into a gangster lifestyle for both those involved and the innocents around them. After it was repealed, the use of alcohol increased for a short time, then leveled back off to preprohibition levels. The same will happen when we stop trying to control others pain levels. Cont.
