i swore on my life from the time i turned 10 i would never smoke weed, a couple yeas later and i smoke weed daily

weed is (more or less) completely harmless, to all the retards out there who think its bad, dont listen to this bull shit, you cant believe everything you hear or see, until you experience it yourself

@PDavidProductions I know, just I needed to spam above for lieing.

Needed to reply to your comment so that I could do more than one

@Bassethound12343, And it's funny, because you were actually more intelligent when you were little, now you are being affected by weed yet have the ignorance to think it is actually good for you.

I'll be laughing when the US Department of Health and Human Services finds lots of Side Effects from Weed.

This is exactly how it played out before when people were smoking Cigarettes just around the time Apollo Launched, later smoking was found the Side effects as of today.

Gee, ATI, a lot of your videos have ratings and comments disabled. Did you get tired of us marijuana advocates making you look like utter morons and liars?

i used to respect above the influence's message and how they went about promoting a life without drugs, but then today i went to there website and read their article about marijuana and was apalled. half the "facts" they state are simply not true and have even been disproved by scientific studies. They clearly overdramatize the effects of drugs so PLEASE IF YOU WANT TO LEARN ABOUT ILLEGAL DRUGS PLEASE DO NOT GO TO ABOVE THE INFLUENCE'S WEBSITE VISIT ONE OF THE MANY OTHER SITES ON THE WEB

I read all the sources for their facts on the website and most of them are extremely outdated from the late 90's and early 2000's so it's pretty hard to believe any of this if they haven't conducted proper studies on the effects of weed since then. and for anyone who thinks it kills brain cells...IT DOES NOT. That study they did the outcomes were from human error.
