  • Its been my experience that people who are against the legalisation of MJ are too stupid to be able to draw a comparison between alcohol prohibition and the mobsters of old and marijuana prohibition and the drug cartels , Those who dont learn from history etc ...

  • I have been meaning to watch this documentary, but I have not gotten around to it. What is everyone's opinion of it?

    On a side note: Love the song.

  • prohibition creats mafia.

  • Finished this today. So good!

  • Prohibition is a war against the PEOPLE,another form of slavery,does any one have eyes to see that the majority of every one needs to wake up! Vote Ron Paul !

  • misandrist pornography

  • @ElinorFitzgerald Marijuana used to be legal, they used it in a verity of things before the paper tycoons thought it would replace timber, so they made a major slander campaign and won.

  • PBS the only channel left that still kickass.I wish i could say the same thing for history channel but they got way too many dudmb tv shows on there to watch so they lose my respect.

  • BEST VERSION out of all the commercials.

  • @SUPerFreakUsa technically, they were making illegal alcohol which had been legal for decades. Marijuana has never been legal (unless you're living in California) and thus is not an ideal parallel
