During an impassioned argument for the legalization of marijuana, MSNBC anchor Lawrence O'Donnell highlights the relative safety of marijuana compared to alcohol -- calling it a "healthier choice" -- and rips on hypocritical lawmakers who "get high" on booze yet punish people for seeking a "non-liquid high."

  • Best thing I've ever seen. I'm high

  • I fucking love this guy.

  • @KripDrip You're insane. In MOST states they will put you in jail for having a nick. Do you get lucky cops sometimes? Yes. But most cases they are taking you to jail. Unless you're a pretty boy with no record at all, and told the cop "yes i do have marijuana in the vehicle." Even then you're usually screwed.

  • @TheJayEffkay

    Fucked in the head is considered by the majority to be someone who chooses his ego and fantasy over facts and truths. So fuck you fucked in the head fucker.

  • thanks lawrence

  • @KripDrip People do get arrested and/or fined for small amounts, which reduces their ability to find a job, get student aid, and so on, so the impact on society is much worse than some annoying paperwork and a fine for the user. Also, people shouldn't be imprisoned for producing, possessing, or selling larger amounts. Other crimes associated with dealing, yes. If we had rational laws for production and distribution, then people should definitely be required to do business within that framework.
