  • Wait what was that part in the middle? About the lizards and the aliens?

  • Cheeseburgers are a gateway food! They cause people to make bad decisions and will lead to worse eating habits such as chili cheese fries and drinking half and half from the carton.

    Cheeseburgers should be a Schedule 1 substance!

  • loved the royal family reference! just youtube search 'royal family lizards' if you want a good laugh.

  • The first reason is definitely one of the major reasons for drug bans, and one of the most bullshit. The second is ironic, because banning is only giving international crime organizations more power. The third is absolute shit, if that's how people want to live their lives that's their right.

    Unfortunately, these idiotic justifications have resulted in a hypocritic system that allows two horrid drugs while stigmatizing others systematically and denying itself the revenue that could come from it

  • The interesting idea about number two is that just that actually happened in China a few hundred years ago lol.

  • Excellent!

  • I actually like this ad, and certainly support it -- Much prefer this over some shitty beer or car ad.

  • Nice

  • good ad

  • I still can't understand why something that grows naturally out of the dirt is illegal and can put you in prison. That idea is insane to me.

  • Marijuana IS a gateway drug. It is very bad for you. But that doesn't mean that it should be illegal.

  • @redsox1006 no, no it is not Very bad for you. Alcohol, tobacco are very, very bad for you cannabis doesn't seem to be anywhere near as damaging as either of those substances. And yes it should not be illegal at all.

  • @thousandstrong

    Try saying that after seeing the girl on MTV scream and flip a bitch because she can't smoke weed. 16 and Preginent is what the show is called I believe.

  • @Adeezywasheezy That's because she was probably an idiot in the first place. She is not a good representation of all pot smokers. Just like how Jersey Shore is not a good representation of all people who live in New Jersey.

  • @Adeezywasheezy

    Hah. Cars are bad for people, it should be illegal because in one show I saw a girl who screamed and flipped a bitch because she couldn't drive her car. I believe that show is called almost every home in America.

  • @Adeezywasheezy You watch MTV, and you can't spell "pregnant".

    What makes you think that anyone gives a shit what you think? The people on those shows are just as stupid and ignorant as you are, and certainly not representative of normal people.

  • @TheSmackerlacker

    U MAD BRO?

    I never asked if anyone gave a shit. :/ Anyways, get to actually know me before you prejudge. Oh yeah, before I go...I don't watch MTV. :/

  • @Adeezywasheezy Hold onto your ass, because I'm about to bust it. Anyone, and I mean ANYONE who says "U MAD BRO?" is a stupid, worthless, ignorant piece of shit, completely incapable of normal integration into human society, and the very epitome of our worst traits, those traits that we must purge from ourselves in order to advance.

    I did not prejudge you. I judged you based on observation of your behavior. It seems that my determination was correct.

  • @TheSmackerlacker

    Potassium BRAH. ^__^

  • @Adeezywasheezy You brought up an isolated incident. It doesn't mean that it will be as damaging for everyone just because it was for that girl. Listen does everyone that drinks a beer become an alcoholic? You bringing up this one case isn't proof that cannabis is more damaging than either tobacco or alcohol. Show me some studies that show that ingesting cannabis is more physically or psychologically damaging than tobacco and alchohol and you will change my mind.

  • @thousandstrong

    Isn't that how scientific studies are carried out? I doubt that it is more damaging then tobacco or alcohol. Though I don't doubt it isn't harmful in some way. I have friends who can't seem to go without it for a few hours, It just makes me wonder. I'm also sorry if I sound prejudice by saying I think people who are so determined to defend the idea of not making it a crime to smoke weed are those who like it for all the wrong reasons.

  • @redsox1006 gateway drug is such a farce term. You can't put the responsibility of people's actions on a substance. It's a dirty dirty buzzword term that is profoundly dangerous, and could be a very slipperly slope if applied to any other perceived non-healthy behavior.

    You're either a fucktard who thinks moving on to heroin is a good idea, or you have half a brain and will stick with your herbatious nuggets.

  • Comment removed

  • I think the worst reason why drugs should be banned is that the government should be allowed to ban people from destroying themselves, given that it's the most commonly used reason.

  • Even if we, for the sake of the argument, agree that Marijuanna is a gateway drug, the ONLY reason it is a gateway drug is because it is illegal. People in order to get weed have to use illegal means to access it and thus expose themselves to harder drugs when if they could just buy it from a coffee shop this problem wouldn't exist.

  • @TheoneParky weed isnt a gateway drug. tobacco is.

  • @JCI1990 I didn't say it was, I only said it for the sake of the argument.

  • @JCI1990 No. It's not.

  • @xFishera247 Yes. It's is.

  • @JCI1990 Learn to speak English.

  • @xFishera247 I already learnts it. Learn to maker bigger centenses

  • @JCI1990 Cool story.  You probably have never even tried marijuana, so you wouldn't actually know if it is a gateway drug or not.

  • @xFishera247 smoked everyday for the past five years from the time i woke up, periodically throughout the day, and before i went to sleep. im 21 now and i gotta admit its the best thing i have ever done. I havent smoked in about 3 weeks because i gotta get clean so i can get me a new job. unfortunately, every job that matters around here tests for it so i gotta get clean until i actually obtain the job. Too bad too because I am such a hard worker.

  • @xFishera247 i have smoked more weed than you can even fathom. so let me get this straight. Youre a stoner that calls marijuama a gateway drug?

  • @JCI1990 Yes. Because it is. And it's pretty sad that you smoke alone. You must have a no life.

    Weed has gotten me to try coke, shrooms, acid, and gotten me to drink. If i hadn't smoked weed, none of it would have happened.

  • @xFishera247 How do you know you wouldnt have tried it it you started on alcohol first? so youre saying weed made you try those? i think its just a very stupid decision you made. So youre saying weed made you try all those other things? I think thats a pretty dumb statement that makes no sense. its called peer pressure not gateways. . blaming it on weed is the dumbest thing i ever heard. its 4 seperate things with 4 totally different effects that arent related. I enjoy smoking with others?

  • @xFishera247

    The keyword here is "you." You tried weed, you tried coke, you drank, you tried shrooms and acid and kitten huffing and whatever the Hell else I'm sure you did. Take ownership of that, don't blame circumstance, don't legally harrass people who have done you no wrong and, for fuck's sake, don't send one percent of the fucking population to jail for it and support drug cartels in South America.

  • @PanzerDivisionBOM All because of weed. I'm telling you that if i never tried weed it wouldn't have happened. Hence: GATEWAY. And i know a lot of other people who think the same way as me, so it isn't just me. Legally Harrass? What the fuck? You are a fucking loser.

  • @xFishera247

    I'm not the one who did a whole bunch of drugs and then blamed it on some other drugs. To me, that's even more pathetic than someone who drinks, goes out and hurts people and then blames it on the alcohol. At least most alcoholics don't advocate throwing thousands of people in jail and propping up multi-billion dollar drug cartels as a way of easing their own conscience. -

  • -

    - I take the maintenance of my body seriously, and I take responsibility for what I put into it, and I encourage the people I care about to do the same. If you want people to have good outcomes in life, then teach them to take care of themselves. Be gentle, firm and encouraging. Don't just threaten them with fines or imprisonment if they don't do what you tell them to, because that's not going to help.

  • @PanzerDivisionBOM Multi-Billion? Get your facts straight lol

  • @xFishera247

    Quoth Wikipedia on Illegal drug trade:

    "A UN report said the global drug trade generated an estimated US$321.6 billion in 2003."

    As I recall, the Mexican government confiscated the holdings of one drug lord last year, and the resulting revenue amounted to a significant boost to their national budget for that year.

  • @PanzerDivisionBOM Whatever the Mexican government confiscates only boosts their own wallets... fucking pigs!

  • @xFishera247 I smoked weed all throughout highschool and into sophmore year of college. I eventually quit and got a degree. Most of my friends still smoke weed and they have their college degrees. I've been around and have been offered shrooms coke, etc and I have always declined them. Frankly, I cannot stand weed nowadays, but i support anyone who wants to smoke. It is about SELF-control. If you lack that ability, it doesn't mean you demand infringement on other peoples freedoms.

  • @xFishera247 Also, most people smoke cigarettes before they ever smoke weed, so by your definition of "gateway," cigarettes should also be illegal. Arguably, same goes for caffeine.

  • @kahnk009 They should be youre right

  • @willie1490 lol sure

    you dont know? yeah.

    my air conditioner is on(?)

    this had nothing to do with thought but OK THEN:)

    puppet? how bout you, overlysensitive cop-lover?

  • @willie1490 I HAVE A CAPS LOCK TOO!

    AMICOOLYET?

  • Doing drugs does make you lazy.

  • I have inoperable degenerative spinal disk disease. I must have opiods in order to survive.I'm made to feel like a drug addict. I feel that many drugs should be legalized. This so called war on drugs has been a huge waste of time and money. Billions have been poured into an unsuccessful program that is impossible to achieve. Want to end a lot of drug use? Improve the economy, improve living standards. Treatment is cheaper than incarceration and I suspect more successful. Give people hope.

  • I'm 16 too! And I agree with you dude. Intelligent stoners ftw?

  • @itzme10 you aren't intelligent, seeing how you didn't comment @ him.

  • @xFishera247

    Pretty sure I was on my iPod using the YouTube app which doesn't allow replying to comments. I now use the mobile version though, which is a lot better.

  • lol

  • sex and weed all the way!

  • @DavidHebby1 yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • YES

    thank you

    the war on drugs is bs!

  • This video is pure propaganda. Drugs are the bane of humanity. That being said, the so called "war on drugs" is a shame. The u.s. government is one of the worlds largest supplier of drugs.

    thumb this down if your an addict.

  • ya listen to this dumb geezer hahahahahah

  • @TheBAallday I'd rather listen to this " dumb geezer" rather than you. You have pentagrams and shit all over you page. People like you support the war on drugs? Damn, I'm redy to end this war.

  • @JCI1990 obviously its hard for you to notice sarcasm haha. the war on drugs is total bs i dont believe in any of it. haha what's wrong with a pentagram? you scared? ;)

  • i love you.

  • If they made all drugs legal tomorrow how many of you whould run right out and pick some up? If you did you would be an idoit!

  • @budget61 I mean weed ok but heroin come on....

  • @budget61 lol i know man some people think they need the government to take care of them

  • No drugs are inherently nefarious. I've done every drug I can think of, and just look at how proper my grammar is, because I am not a self-destructive loser. BTW, crack is awesome.

  • Legalize marijuana, continue to ban the others such as coke/heroin/crack ect. Imagine all the money the government would save from not having to keep majiuana off the streets and instead legalizing and taxing it, might help the economy...never know, but thats only if people are responsible users....you'll always have the idiots of the bunch that'll wanna do stupid things after getting high.

  • When do you ever hear about a marijuana related death in the news? Do you realize that the only effects of canabis is that a good time and being hungry, as apposed to alcohol, a hangover, rape, drunk driving, etc. I can go on with that list for a while.

  • the only drug that sould be legal is pot cuz just fucing think about it

  • "she is my muse, my flame"

  • marijuana is not a drug

  • Legalize. 

  • u fucker.. banning drugs

  • The third argument has a problem. No your not required by the govt. to be a productive individual, but our govt. has entitlements and welfare.  In this country there's a safety net for unproductive people paid for by the productive people. Want to legalize drugs? Deny welfare to individuals who fail mandatory drug tests, and stiffen the penalty for crimes where drugs are involved. You wanna get high? Don't ask me to pay for you, get into a car accident while stoned minimum 5 year sentence.

  • @XCyclonusX Sold! Works just fine! Write up the legislation, my good sir or madam. I'll sign the petition and get it out there.

  • this guy is a fagget 420 for life burn it!! got that super fire

  • yeah, cigarettes are totally THE gateway drug..... you could drink nothing but soda for the rest of nyour life and die of soda.while cannabis has been medically researched soooo much that they've found it has more testing-backed, positive uses for treatment and illness than any man made drug even falsely claims to have.thats what happens when you let the government change a constitution they were never supposed to be allowed to change.

  • You know what's funny is Marijuana ISN'T a gateway drug, and a lot of the shit they say about it isn't true. It's actually better for you than tobacco and is MUCH less addicting

  • @Gurgle528sevrules1 idk dont u get way more tar from marijuana than tobacco? right?

  • @Gurgle528sevrules1 If the anti-drug people would smoke some weed they would know that it makes you too paranoid to take harder drugs.

  • @SuperBspb weed goes good with everything, makes everything more enjoyable, even swimmin, the taste of food, the sun feels better,.... just sayin, :/

  • @Gurgle528sevrules1 For some people. It effects ever one differently. It's the gate way drugs because most people try it first before getting into the stronger stuff. And how can smoking smoke in the lungs be good for you? i will never understand that, it still smoke. Lungs weren't made for smoke.

  • @Gurgle528sevrules1 It really is a gateway drug. I smoke bud with my friends, and after a few weeks of me smoking, i've come across salvia, alcohol, coke, shrooms, acid, and heroine. I personally didn't touch the heroine, but if i had never smoked bud, i would have never come across anything like those nor would have tried any of those in my wildest dreams. You oobviously either don't smoke, smoke alone, or have a boring bunch of friends to smoke with.

  • Ban drugs so they can kill you with their prescriptions.. You see how many people that kills.. But its so lucrative.. so why not ban drugs..

  • War on your momma!!

  • @cmonty72 how is that even remotely funny?

  • Well, lets see... The war on drugs is a decade-long battle that we continue to lose from an economic aspect, and lets face it, on all general levels. The current creed is founded on racial and irrational judgment. Poor thinking as well as our resistance to change will be the doom of our civil rights, liberty, military strengths, and most importantly, our economic power house. I'm 16, and if I can see this, clearly, so should one 4x my age. Maybe Ron Paul?

  • @acozilla ron paul is crazy but, u are ight otherwoze

  • Comment removed

  • I will continue funding the reptilian overlords and their agenda. MotherFUCK the government.

  • I thought this guy was going to be a dick... but it turns out I actually enjoyed this video lol

  • This guy is hilarious!! And he has a dry sense of humor HAHA!!!

  • "The weed acts as a powerful aphrodisiac and renders users capable of various acts of violence; a California man decapitated his best friend while under the violent spell of the smoke, and a Florida youngster put the ax to his mother and father.”

    Reefer madness quote...lol polititions/movies/propaganda will stop at nothing to brainwash ppl into there idea of a "perfect" society instead of letting americans speak and vote for rights they are put into the hands of modern day "Hitlers"

  • There's one very strong argument for keeping at least the really bad drugs illegal, and that's how they can cause people to become a danger to themselves and others. There should absolutely be laws against a drug that would cause a person to legitimately believe that their neighbors are zombies and must have their heads cut off to save the planet. Things like acid, PCP, opium etc cannot be used responsibly, and that's why they're illegal.

  • Comment removed

  • All I do is smoke weed. I don't give a FUCK!!!

    Smokin' weed every day....SHIT

    Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeed

  • 35 people....were confused by the title

  • I was about to auto-thumbs down and post a rant comment here, the title got me upset lol. Actually a good video, thanks.

  • why is this the top on every video i watch?

  • For those of you who want marijuana to be legalized because you use it.. ask yourselves the question.. "How good would marijuana be if it was legal, but I could only buy the really shit kind grown by Phillip-Morris??" If it were legalized, the small growers that make the kind of marijuana you like would be driven out of business in favor of large corporate farms who favor quantity over quality.

  • @Tanksareforcowards true, i'm much more in favor of simple decriminalization. let me continue to buy my top-shelf marijuana from my buddy, just remove the threat of jail time for both of us. Simple.

  • @Tanksareforcowards The thing is if they grow substandard bud, nobody's going to buy it. Unless people want shitty pot.

  • @MetalxXxMayhem You make a good point. I would like to point out, though, that people already buy shitty beer, shitty cigarettes, shitty food...

  • @Tanksareforcowards The good beer is still available. Quantity will never completely trump quality.

  • My favorite reason. MARIJUANA GIVES MEXICANS SUPERPOWERS

    ( look it up lol ) .

  • With a name like "LearnLiberty" I was expecting right-wing propaganda.

  • @PompousPreacher It is. It's a new kind of right-wing, though. The kind that claims to value "freedom;" what they really care about is economic freedom, more than civil liberties. They might not sound like Richard Nixon, but in power they would very quickly make unionization of workers impossible and allow companies to do pretty much whatever they want as long as they don't commit one of a few basic crimes. It might sound nice, but do you like knowing that bought food is relatively safe? I do.

  • wait...I thought the English monarchy were lizards.

  • yooooooo Dude!!! Ur an ediot alll you old people need to sit down and SMOKE some PURPLE KUSHHH

  • @jmu2k5 You obviously need to do the opposite.

  • Ban utube for tokingGLX's sake!

  • who all thinks this guy is on something:).... he keeps moving his head back and forth.....:)lol

  • can this guy be president for fucks sake?

  • I like drugs. HTC  is fucking great

  • @pieguywithafry THC? lol

  • The war on drugs is a complete and total farce.

  • BLUNTS

    

  • Mankind had been ingesting drugs long before any law were written. Many things in life have their pluses and minuses. Cocaine used to be an ingredient of Coca-Cola, hence the name. We Live in a world of chemicals - some are man-made others are natural like THC from pot or caffeine from tea or coffee. If you eat too much red meat & ice cream you could have a heart attack. There seems to be no real answer - In a free world should we have our choice how we die or should it be assigned?

  • i agree with the sex thing there is already to many asains

  • yeah dude Purple Kush is better for u than cigs all these old people need to shut up! and sit down and get high of this purple kush #KUSHCAREER

  • @jmu2k5 RIGHT ON! lol i have some purp on me right now.

  • The Reason why Marijuana is illegal cause ediots like this will lose there jobs!

  • Legalize the herb

  • Preposterous is a great word!

  • pot, maybe. Other drugs, no not really. They are bad, they do induce bad ideas, and encourage bad behavioral habits. If this guy says that it is ok to do whatever drugs you want, when you want, then he is obviously some self-proclaimed doctor and knows nothing of the topic.

  • @BNAHUlVl

    Most drugs DONT encourage bad behavioral habits and DONT incude bad ideas. I've never done drugs nor do I ever desire too but if people want to shoot up some heroin or snort some coke. Then hell, let them. You type of people think that if drugs are legalized then EVERYTHING bad in the world will be unleashed. Learn your fucking facts before spewing fallacious shit.

  • @DrBassdrop WOW REALLY GUY. First off, I study criminalistics pal. People rob and kill other people over drugs and MONEY FOR DRUGS. AND would you want people driving while doped up on heroin? no! would you want your employees overdosing in the bathroom just for some unsuspecting customer to walk in and find a dead body in your establishment? no! Plus all the paper work involved in having a dead employee pop up. YOU HAVE NO CLUE guy. So shut your fucking mouth.

  • @BNAHUlVl HAHAHA you think just because drugs are made legal that everyone would go and do every single one???? YOU HAVE NO CLUE if you think that employees and drivers who were doing heroin would have been stopped by a law. what if someone drank himself to death in a bathroom or was driving drunk? BTW people driving on heroin?? wow

  • @BNAHUlVl and you think if drugs were made legal that they would steal money for them? why wouldn't they grow it themselves???

  • @BNAHUlVl btw i'm not so sure about lealizing ALL drugs but just marijuana would be ok. peace

  • @BNAHUlVl That is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard. Everything you said is biased, and you are just ranting on. Have we forgotten the Alcohol Prohibition of the early 1900's? Organized crime went up when alcohol WAS illegal. Alcohol is also more dangerous than most drugs out there. Why alcohol is legal, and the rest are illegal is a misconception that i hope will be solved one day.

  • @BNAHUlVl Crime isn't cause by one single factor, if you were to consider any factor of them the the highest contribution to crime comes down to economics and jobs. In places where there is less economic prosperity like urban areas, you see higher rates or crime because their is less policing, tax money going to use, lack of jobs, and an attitude of anti-government because no one is looking out for them, not just drugs.

  • only cannabis is good  that other stuff is bad for your health your head and your soul. actualy the prohibition of cannabis is cosing the assention of respectible and non respectible, white women screwing mexicans.

  • the bs reasoning behind banning drugs is also used to try to ban guns. I am not gonna give ether one up.

  • @jordantheok i wish i could say i dont like people like u without starting an argument

  • @jordantheok

    If you think you need a gun, you're using the wrong drugs. 

  • @jordantheok except the loose gun rules have led to shit like columbine. weed is not murder

  • @jordantheok guns are used for defence robbers do that illegaly but guns are defence drugs are just for "fun" or feeling good

  • Spitta Andretti

  • I'm stoned.

  • PROHIBITION CREATES UNNECESSARY VIOLENCE... sorry its been proven. i bet you remember the 20's .... CANNABIS im sorry, ISNT A GODDAMN NARCOTIC. people need to EDUCATE themselves. it makes me mad that people like THIS who have NEVER actually TAKEN the SUBSTANCE.. so thats like saying you hate driving a car and prefer bicycle and have never driven, you simply do not know. yes i use cannabis on a DAILY BASIS and it hasnt turned me into a lazy, unproductive person.. maybe people are

  • @LucidClarityTV Seems to have affected your caps lock however. :P But besides that, I agree with you. Prohibition leads to violence and crime, citation: The 20s.

  • Weeeeeeeeed

  • Drugs are bad for you. Period.

  • @Werewolvesareawesome Drugs are bad for you, because you're clearly either a retard who can't or couldn't handle them, or someone who knows someone else who is a retard that can't or couldn't handle them.

  • Alright, im just going to use weed as an example. If we legalize it, we will earn an extra .5 billion dollars  every YEAR. That would eliminate our debt in a bout 2 decades.

  • quit saying "drugs" and start saying marijuana. marijuana only, the others just are all in a whole other category.

  • lizard shaped aliens with a bad human disguise lolol

  • Youtube has been promoting alot of libertarian philosophy videos, College is a scam was one of them and now Ayn Rand videos lol and now this

  • Doctor or not this guy is on drugs.

  • the only reason they want to ban drugs is so that the pharmacy drug companies don't go bankrupt from people buying from the middle man(drug dealers) instead of them

  • PLEASE! NO ONE ELSE LIKE THE VIDEO!!

  • @quote55 I was going to. . Then I saw the number. Priceless.

  • @quote55 why its true drugs should be a personal choice for every one! i don't even use drugs but i still think i should have the choice and on occasion i'm sure i would! It is my right to do that without the fear of a felony for a non violent crime and prison time all because i wanted to get high for whatever reason!

  • @MrByronodmon *facepalm* the like count was at 420 likes, I love marijuana

  • yep this sounds like the american government making drugs illegal cuz of lizards and aliens.

  • 420 likes. aha.

  • @kris8293 actually, a drug is any substance that alters normal bodily function. marijuana is definitely a drug, so is shrooms. with that being said, however, marijuana and shrooms are chemically safe compared to most, if not all, synthetic drugs.
