  • Legalize it NOW!

  • YES! YES! YES!

    I work in medicine and have stopped drinking altogether, because I've seen what alcohol does to human body both short & long term vs. marijuana. Alcohol is actually WAY worse.

    You can die from drinking too much on one night. You can't OD on marijuana alone. There are long term negative effects with abuse, but so is with alcohol!

    More than that, I am SICK of government telling me what I can and cannot put into my body. WHY IS IT THEIR BUSINESS??? LETS TAKE OUR FREEDOM BACK!!!

  • Wow!!! the president just contradicted himself. In another vide he says he thinks are are greater things to use time and money on over the drug war (on pot).

  • These guys don't know what they are talking about!!! then again they are only news reporters and burocrats It is FALSE that Marijuana is stronger, they are only repeating what someone else has said before them so they don't look STUPID...

  • Now, I've changed my mind. I don't want the Gov. stickn' their snobby noses all up in my personal smokin' habits & routines. And there gonna tax it as well? You might think, "Ahh, it's not that bad". Well, it is!!!! To regain a "solid state of an economy", they're gonna tax the shit outta weed!!! If you wanna dBag of weed, it will cost you $17.25!!! $7 dollars over the price!!! I'd rather sneak 2 a alley and get it 4 $10 bucks!!!

  • I agree whole-heartedly. 40bil' is a lot of money, but I think it's all a big prank. There is no deficit, no debt, no economy issues. Just a lot of bald old congressman trying to spice up their lives, with playing pranks on it's own country. The evidence is there.....G-Bush was not a good pres., so why did he stay in office 4 4years? 2 build up a debt 4 the nxt pres. 2 play with. After him though, change should come. Legal canny' will change the world, but the Gov. planned 4 this a while back...

  • Did he just say SchwarzeNIGGER? Wow... Ass

  • Is everyone forgetting about the forty billion we spend every year fighting marijuana? That alone with all the other reasons should be enough to end the ridiculous laws against it.

  • In "The Science of Marijuana" written by Leslie Iversen it is proven that the higher the THC content of marijuana, the less one needs to inhale to gain the desired high. Therefore, cannabis with higher THC content leads to smokers inhaling less tar into their lungs.

    Smoking higher potency marijuana is measurably less harmful than smoking 'regular' potency marijuana. The highs are not drastically different, as the media seems to think.

  • What a horse shit argument...

    Forget the fact that NO amount of marijuana can cause a fatal overdose.

    The tired old "This isn't the same pot your daddy smoked" argument, really has no logical or scientific merit. It's still THC, which has been proved over and over again to be remarkably benign

    75% of the overall revenue that violent Mexican drug cartels rake in comes from their biggest cash crop: marijuana.

    Legalization will IMMEDIATELY reap positive benefits across the board.

  • Yes it's rediculas the lies they get away with telling, the word "skunk" has been around for decades, and good hash will always be stronger then bud. In the past they talked about racism and religion to put people off, (check out the whole refer madness, madness) In 20 years time we will probably look back to now and think how stupid we were to believe in such things, but we will probably be convinced that the new strain or research is different.

  • I agree and already tried to state that.

    What I'm trying to say is that the government of California is having a bad accounting foresight
