President Obama, stop the drug wars

This is a public service announcement for marijuana law reform. The jingle is reminiscent of the free credit report commercials. This video was produced to be entered into Norml's 2009 video contest. Produced by Robert Kam, Dan Bennett and Peter Gudmunson featuring Bob Giles.

This video reinforces general public perception...what a bunch of morons smoke pot and can't do anything excellent afterwards. And the "Go fuck yourself" postings confirm it. Duh

@wyo550 alright I suppose you are a "sophisticated" pot smoker. You know, all we did was make a video and that's a hell of a lot more than you've ever done for "the cause". You think blogging and sending rude comments to people on you tube is gonna do anything? You are just pissing off the people who are trying to do something for Marijuana law reform.

I'm sorry but lose the video for the good of the cause. For the few that don't fully understand this issue yet this can send a really wrong message. If I knew nothing of cannabis sativa, saw this on TV ...I'd want it kept illegal. It's harmful to the progress that has been significantly made in recent times.

@24filmcritic everyone is a critique but no one actually does anything. Go fuck yourself. You gonna do something for "the cause" jackass. What are YOU gonna do? Write some fabulous comment on a blog that everyone is gonna read and turn the tables on Cannabis Law?

[Acollinf6]

Hell no I won't take the video down. If your video was linked to the New York Times would you. Hahaha. You're all so damn jealous of us right now. Fuck off and quit being so gods damn rude.

This was my least favorite. It didn't even make it to the contest finals. The first one, "20 Millionth Marijuana arrest" is by far the best and would have won if NORML hadn't extended the deadline and changed the contest theme from "What if you were the 20 millionth marijuana arrest" to "What would you say to Obama about Marijuana Laws". We threw this one together at the last minute to try and fit the "New" contest theme.

although i am for the legalization and agree with NORML's cause, i strongly urge you to take this video down...

i am sorry to say this, and i realize you must have worked very hard on this, but it is very unprofessional and cannot be taken seriously by a large group of people.

for the cause, take it down! please!

[HilbertSpace]

I couldn't agree more. If anything, this sets the cause back 25 years, which is fitting, since it looks as though it was recorded in 1985.

STOP THE DRUG WAR

@Acollinf6 oh wow man. ursoright

[Institutionalied]

Holland,California, portugal and Christiania Denmark have legalized marijuana, under the regulations of age limit so on so forth. Marijuana is the most commonly used illegal narcotic drug, and does have the ability to cause mental disorders such as schizophrenia to minors. this though, should not be the marijuana itself manifesting in minors mind causing mental disorders, but rather marijuana has the ability to trigger schizophrenia to minors who have an inactive schizophrenic characteristics.
