This video doesnt make me mad, just very disappointed. Drugs being the only possible savior for humanity and all... Particularly LSD, Psilocybin, DMT, MDMA etc... Drugs dont kill people, people do. Dont blame the misguided behavior of people on our chemical brothers. They are a force of life and mental freedom.
Fractapult: That is the most brilliant thing anyone has ever stated on this subject and you are correct, I take it further....Guns don't kill people, people do.
Taking 3 Ibuprofen a day for 6 months will damage your liver more than a shot of whiskey every day for the same period. the song was the only funny one in existence, (there are no funny songs about heroin or coke) that had to do with drugs and I needed the irony.
Yes it is true people with no money go to prison, famous people just pay but that,s justice in the U.S.A just ask M.jackson or OJ .that,s one for another day.
marijuana is an addicting drug with physiological withdrawal that's why I have smoked it for 20 years and my lung,s cant look good. but it is just pot and it is not Heroin,or Coke or tobacco. If I was a young kid now I would not start .But I am not.
This was really clever Lewis! 5 stars and had to save it to favs. Many people don't realize that marijuana is an addicting drug with physiological withdrawal. There are people in rehab with pot addiction. I personally never liked pot. I like being awake and coherent.
Tell that to willie nelson who lost his fortune, or woody Harrelson who lost his, or Dan Akroyd, it cost him 20 mil, or mmaybe cheech marin who lost another 300k all because they smoke pot.
you see, we dont have that money so we go to prison, famous people just pay
As someone who actually *WAS* around in the late 60's early 70's (my sister went to Woodstock!), I will hafta eventually do a vid on drugs. I'll also do one on alcohol too.
Putting this song with this video suggests that pot killed these people. I don't see one person pictured that died from marijuana. River Phoenix-Heroin, John Belushi & Chris Farley-Cocaine & heroin. There are much worse drugs than pot...including ALCOHOL! Just putting it out there:)
dont sweat it,I just wanted to explain the pot song. Theres no songs out there that are funny about.."Hey I shot heroine last night and now Im puking a lung into my toilet.
Your just trying to be a good dad. Kuddo's If our kids only knew what half the stuff we got away with. Come on! we were the age of the GTO etc. (wink wink)
Good video Lewis, but a bit misleading. None of those people died from smoking the weed......in fact, no one has ever died from smoking marijuana.....not one person, ever. If you're going to pull the "gateway" card, just remember that kids grind up their Ritalin pills and snort the power. And I just saw Willie Nelson play a great show on his 70th birthday back in April...if that's a "slow death," I'll take it:) (and no, don't let the beard fool you, I don't drink or smoke).
Joe: DUDE! It doesnt matter, lets show our kids drugs are bad, I did this for my kids and their friends more than anything, please. Marajuannaville was the only song I had to support (or close thereof) my point.
I thought the pics would speak more than the song, sorry. ;/
People have died from smoking pot and then driving, house fires... I wouldn't doubt someone suffocated in a burning crop of it in history. Look at how some of the burned out think Chavez is an ok guy. Do you think that a safe move? Minimizing the consequences isn't healthy. Nelson threw away or had swindled a fortune. Then there is Cancer.
A good way to get the word out there to our youth. The video is appropriate for this day and age and the song, though funny, shed light on where we are in this day and time. By the way, who is singing the lyrics? Awesome!
OK, I loved the lyrics, funny as hell and the message is true. But you know I'm honest to a fault, I too smoked weed during college. Then I had my kids and my priorities changed.
I've seen alot of lives on hold even from mild substances like pot, and ended by worse. Ever see the movie Less Than Zero? I've seen it with real people who came from well off families. Most of the people who do well, know when to walk away even if some of them have occassionally indulged. That applies to alomost everything.
That's true and I'll bet anything you never hear about the kids like me that when their lives changed the weed stopped. Children can do that to ya. But my life wasn't put on hold. I just met a guy got married and stoped, not in that order lol
You were right to show then to him. My kids never knew I smoked weed till they were grown. Then when I did tell them they looked at me funny lol. It was a funny moment
Ironic isn't is? Cigarettes are no joy either. I'm fairly certain everyone has a weakness or potential abuse (likely several) that can destroy them. "A man has to know his limitations." - (I forgot who) Alright, I now I sound like a health nut. Marathons kill too.
What can I say, Im amazing.

There are people who have destroyed themselves with alcohol. You have to be able to differentiate between the use and abuse.

I'm not very anti-pot but the risks are always there and even if legalized one day, it should remain controlled/regulated.
