@ 3:00 Thats a beautifull color; green.

The first American to ever gain access legal access to marijuana??? Larry King needs to brush up on his history... I guess he forgot that all "drugs" were legal up until the early 1900's. I am guessing many people forgot that alcohol was WAY illegal and was viewed like crack and meth are viewed today... Now-a-days you can purchase a bible, baby food and booze all in the same place LOL. Prohibition is just retarded...

[Thekitesky]

im sick of the stigma around marijuana... that's why i smoke cannabis.

hahaha. golden.

[fleckx]

Shoulda mentioned that this is from the documentary American Drug War.

[akinderjamie]

Why is it we can go to the bar and have a drink to "relax", smash a vehicle into a pole and maybe never make it home, yet we can't legally smoke a natural un-altered plant to relax and what..heat up the leftovers and sit on the couch with a smile! C'mon people- get educated!

[Kriptum]

Hi everyone, I train at the gym and I smoke marijuana. Weed helps me with appetite because I have fast metabolism (naturally) so sometimes I smoke weed to keep my appetite on the level :) I think it's nothing serious about it:) If you don't abuse it of course

[ThePenguinProduction]

This lady has aids, so did Robert Randall her husband :(

that sucks

[stupidnatalia123]

good examples, good truth

[ubking777]

I wonder if he can or has gotten a medical card (idk what state he is in.) -or- if that would void his federal. just don't believe they are probably bothering with giving him newer specific strains with particular cannabanoid strengths for his condition. Hope he can & is from them or elsewhere. With their war on citizens position & legendary weak product. Just seems doubtful they really want to help anybody but themselves.shameful.He, like many function better than most ic who don't even partake

[SleepingPeace]

So it's legal for this guy to drive while intoxicated?

[Dirondack]

@SleepingPeace He doesn't get high from it.

[danielcorey21]

@Dirondack this word "high" is the problem. when your valium or klenopin or prozac is working would society say your high?

[Dirondack]

@danielcorey21 People using those as a recreational drug are retarded, all it does it make you sleepy theres no real "high" it's just makes you sleepy which makes someone who is overactive like an average person.

[ilyakharitonov1987]

@Dirondack Actually, you are wrong. It does make you high. Research has shown that marijuana tends to "high jack" the neurotransmitters in your brain intended for short term memory. Also THC (the main ingridient in marijuana) effects certain parts of the brain, especially those accociated with time comprehension. Side effects also inclue uncontrolable laughter, hunger, etc. So put that in your pipe and smoke it

[Dirondack]

@ilyakharitonov1987

Weed makes you high. Vicadin and prozac dont.

They might, but you wont feel it because you fall the fuck asleep.

[theIneluctable1]

@Dirondack Prozac makes you fall asleep? It's an anti-depressant my friend, it does no such thing. Vicodin is an opiod analgesic and does not make you "fall the fuck asleep" either. You WILL experience a euphoric feeling or "high" from vicodin. Vicodin would help you fall asleep for sure because it will make you feel totally relaxed, but that is not its purpose. Neither of the drugs would force you to fall asleep.

[theIneluctable1]

@ilyakharitonov1987 Research has shown? Give me the name of the researchers and the name of their published work. Also, name this neurotransmitter that controls short term memory. Short-term memory holds information for an average of 20-30 seconds. Anything beyond that is considered long term memory and it happens in the hippocampus via long term potentiation and is not subject to the influence of THC. I hold a BA in Psychology from University of Colorado and everything you said sounds suspect.

[theIneluctable1]

@ilyakharitonov1987 @ilyakharitonov1987 Also, it does not cause uncontrollable laughter. It does stimulate the appetite. But you also said etcetera, and what would that etcetera be? That it causes you to rape and masturbate, grow hair on your hands? make your eyes bleed? Where did you learn about marijuana? From that propaganda film Reefer Madness? You sound like you're stuck in the stone age. It's uneducated people like you that repeat nonsense without comprehension of the subject matter.

[crappyblabla]

300 will last him 25 days so thats 12 a day. wow it must not be very good cannabis. or he is in alot of pain. i am sure he is in alot of pain but still 12 a day wow :)

[dragoon84]

Call it cannabis, people. Cannabis.

[MrLunk2]

From wich documentary is this piece ?

[Sinsemilla4u]

This is from the episode of Penn and Tellers Bullshit : War on drugs (just without the commentary).

[MrLunk2]

Thank you :)

[x00m99]

Yes it does - because it's organic

[inflamesftw]

does actually putting weed in your freezer helps it keep fresher?

[Foodieholic]

think of it like lettuce: freeze lettuce and it useless to you. all of the tiny crystals that you see in your buds will be destrayed if frozen adn thawed. the fridge is fine, but a nice mason jar is best.

if you want to keep it fresh for a really long time and don't intent to open the jar for months or longer, put a mason jar in the oven at about 150 degrees for 10 minutes. the air inside will become hot. put buds in and seal with lid. as it cools, the seal will become really strong. :-D

[MrLunk2]

If you DRY your weed upto 10% humidity !

Then vacuumseal it in plastic..

It will stay GREAT for years !

Trust me I know ;)

[res813]

thc degrades slower when in is chilled

[Spiskummin]

8:11-8:52, so true...
