[thrashmetalteen]

What's with the fucking laughter?

[leerid]

Great upload, thanks!

[BoogieKnight1976]

Non dope smoking alcohol drinkers look down on me and imagine I'm a junky and a waster yet I work hard and pay my way. I dont puke on the carpet or piss myself ,act like a cocky fool or beat on my family. Im a guy who enjoys his weed as much as any man likes his beer but I choose to get high rather then get drunk.

[homusalonus]

@BoogieKnight1976 Well said my brother, I've smoked dope 4 fifteen years, I get up every day @ 6oclock and work my bollocks off! I my reefer smoke drift pass a non smoker and I'm instantly demonised. I have witnessed people go completely mental after only 2-3 years of cannabis usage but the numbers pale in comparison to mental illness from alchohol. That shit needs regulating more than cannabis and anyone with a half a brain knows this! Ban beer legalise cannabis!! Peace

[BoogieKnight1976]

@homusalonus Ive smoked herb longer than you and around other seasoned vets and never ever in my life knew of ANYBODY that has gone whacko from toking on the sacred herb that we have the right to smoke as God gave us all seed bearing herbs.

[Stillwater900]

@BoogieKnight1976 True, but I know dozens of my fathers hippie friends who are complete losers with no career, no money, no standing in society, no nothing.

[thrashmetalteen]

@BoogieKnight1976 Yeah I agree. Fuck the people who belittle you, and yet every weekend they poison themselves retarded and smoke cancer sticks every day. Fuck society!

This guy is the furthest thing from being stupid, his ties included Saudi royals, Afghani royals, rock-stars, actors/actresses, politicians, the Intelligence services in at least 3 countries, not to mention the IRA, Mafia, Yakuza, Triads, Thai army officials, Pakistani army officials and many many more that my 144 remaining characters could EASILY fill. These types just "do not" deal with stupid people.

[TheFreeman35]

the whole point of the canned laughter is to discredit howard and make him look stupid,which he clearly is not. he is spot on about the shite lager tho.alcohol kills more people than marijuanna EVER has.IF they legalised cannabis the world would wake up that the "authoritys" slavery of us is wrong,unjust and would lead to people not being kept as pets.

[pommyrooter]

@TheFreeman35, Marijuana has NEVER killed anyone directly, unlike Alcohol. I totally agree with you.

[hybridpyrotech]

@pommyrooter i strongly agree , there's no risk of mental conditions when it treats all this stuff including cancer.

its all a question of money, they do so much research yet those facists who call themselves governments don't bother re-legalising it as its tradition. cannabis really isn't a bad thing compared to alcohol which is a hard drug

[thedriftmc]

@hybridpyrotech Dude. Allow me to say this, as someone who knows. I had a friend who suffered from cannabis psychosis. It's very serious. BUT please be aware those people already have existing mental conditions, probably dormant, that are activated because they consume large quantities of high grade marijuana. He was a skunk dealer in south london, and a muay thai expert. There were a few nasty episodes, which I had to resolve. He went missing a few years ago. We were at college together.

[ty3165]

pity howard uses such bad language,really didnt have to use it he is a very clever man indeed

[lionhart3001]

i cant be assed to watch all of this, why was it made illegal?

[lifeinsepia]

@lionhart3001 Some eqyptian guy went off on one about how it was a deadly poison that threatened all of europe.

[onlywhenprovoked]

@lionhart3001 yeah thats the problem with wanting to learn... you have to be assed to watch and read stuff.

sorry., i know life is tough for someone with ADD

[hybridpyrotech]

@onlywhenprovoked i have adhd, it helps me relax in class sometimes, plus that also depends on the dosage for a purpose.. cannabis really isn't a bad thing compared to alcohol which is a hard drug

[sail1948]

Cliche Cliche Cliche !! Blah Blah Blah.

[NoPrEJudice201]

Yes Howard you know its true.

[MannGegenMann666]

Talk about the film, any news on the release date?

[tomhyde402]

@MannGegenMann666. The Uk premiere was last night at the Edinburgh Film Festival. It's an amazing film and well worth watching. II guess general release will be soon.

[bockydo]

i advocate it being legal but lets not be high while you are making this vid u cant pull off a normal face lol

[AvantTrash]

Sounds like a crap laugh track. It's not that funny! It's good and valid and I like what he's saying but that laugh track is so annoying.

[waterhouse24]

nice.. Check out the video called: Your Children will smoke Cannabis in the UK 2010

[wtfisgoinon527]

Number one is the laughter is dubbed by his company who produced his dvd. Number 2 he is doing a stand-up show

[cashfan123]

agreed man FTW

[richthorn07]

understand that Howard Marks now is somewhat of a stand up comic. He performs locally in the UK, does Book Reads and tells dope stories.

Hence the reason why people are laughing.

[hminbam]

if only the goverment would work for us, as their supposed to. and not us work for them :(

[Martial024]

Nobody should have the right to ban a plant or a animal.

Nature should be left alone, if not preserved.

[bearshavebigballs100]

welsh legend !cant wait for he film next year

[ollycu36000]

this guy is vey clever and funny

[frenchielcfc]

cleverest man ever. why are people laughing?

[lovespoiled]

that fecking canned laughter is so annoyingly insulting to howards words of reality over illegality of weed...this man is trying to get his point across n some dicks dubbed in laughter at stupid moments during his lecture

dreamin da dreams of da dream onwards n upwards holding it high n proud,faithful to dee end for the cause

[muttilo]

@lovespoiled You Know I watched this a year ago and didn't EVEN Notice because I was so Focused on the Man ! He is not Appreciated here in the US >He was sent to Miami for Trial , I Live here and he is underexposed ..Shame ,maybye the new film will pick up a cult following or something ! Bless you Mr. Howard M !

[sam508805]

@lovespoiled yeah that laughter and editing is bloody annoying. They released another version of this DVD called "Howards Cut" which is just one full live show with no editing. Much better!

[Dollozze]

@lovespoiled I disagree... it's a joke with a serious overtone. this whole stand up show comments on very serious issues, and isn't meant to just entertain.

[Alzdr]

@lovespoiled Yeah, it would be good to upload the original, know where to get it ?

[Mantajourneys]

I have this video, and the laughter on this version sounds different. I think it's been added.

[sdhjtge]

the reason marijuana was made illegal was because they thought it was a wild growing mexican tobacco plant and they said that blacks and mexicans smoked it and raped white women,they dident even know it was the hemp plant,hemp was used alot to make stuff ,clothes ,etc etc im not joking look it up if u dont believe me.

[Eldritchard]

'i can come quicker than that' some of his one liners are hilarious.

the luaghter is kinda funny i think some of its dubbed in and some real.

[heavenpepperz]

does the audience's laugh really dubbed in? you sure? i was laughig!!!!!!!!!!

[tonkotsuday]

strange audience.

[Nelladagar]

ye that laughters gotta be dubbed

[DisgustipatedUlaji]

you know its funny, he started to get into the chemical industry, I had a theory that the meds. & alchohol industry were the ones who agreed with the gov. "if you want people to stop smoking weed, make the brew widely available and a pill for everything you can think of. people who ingest the two will feel fine until they try to smoke, smoke one joint and theyve got the spins and gurggles all night." If I smoke, I'm fine until I add those other chems. thin margin of error between it all.

[lovespoiled]

known as blockers used on recovering detoxing withdrawing addicts it blocks certain drugs effecting the brain in the usual way it makes u sick n feel like shite for a good 24 hours after you've consumed the drug.putting you off using the drug again...n believe me it frigging works alright..neva again will i touch skag(heroin)

dreamin the dreams of the dream,forever and a day faithful to da cause.

[DisgustipatedUlaji]

and here I thought I was just being paranoid. makes a lot of sense.

"god made weed. man made beer. you tell ME who got it right."

I saw that on a shirt some douchebag was wearing... I had to agree... *shrug*

In that moment, me and that douche were One. Its all about the little things , heh.

[indie990]

it's very good, but is that laughing dubbed in?

[Pipethekind]
