Thanks for the opportunity to see ignorance in action. Mr. Farley I sure hope your life isn't affected like mine is by Chonic Pain and Muscle stiffness and spazms. I suffer from Fibromyagia and Chronic Pain Syndrome and Medical Cannabis really helps my pain. Without it my life is miserable with pain. I take many pharmaceuticals that only help me by a fraction. Cannabis helps with pain and suffering. May you and your family not have to suffer like I and many others do..

Its so funny to watch him squirm, he sits there rubbing his yees knowing he has to lie again and again to fight this and yet he does it, no spine no compassion at all. No one gets arrested yeh right, come to my state see what they do when you get caught, jail alone sounds good compaired to loosing you home and kids family and all for a plant the mopst medicaly active plant on earth?

Oh and that study showed Pot prevented Neck and head cancer, not caused it! Just more lies!

One other thing that I would like to add. If marijuanna is so bad, why is it that the opposition never has a good argument? Goldstein had the facts and presented an excellent case that prohibition is bogus and Farley could do nothing but call him a liar and present no solid facts or collected evidence for a rebuttle. My conclusion, the stupid Fucker is full of shit! People in college look up SSDP.org

That is students for sensible drug policy act. Please lobby your local congress officials.

Boosting the immune system by allowing the body to better consume and process the food ingested. Also guys and gals. Stress is the number one contributing factor to cardiac complications. Tobacco is number two. Decriminalize pot, and people will live longer, healthier lives.

Ok ladies and gentlemen here is my comment for the entire eight video series. I am a healthcare professional. I work as a cardiac nurse in a moderately busy hospital. During my eight years in the medical profession I have done extensive research on cannibis and the effects of such a substance on the human body. What I have found as well as many other healthcare proffesionals is that marijuanna has emmense analgesic properties (pain relief) and it alleviates stress and increases appetite in turn

@scscraze4u I was in his Drugs & Society class. He insulted ppl like you and would say you just wanna get high it doesn't really help yr pain. He is a despicable bitter man and I feel sorry for him. I know a person who died from cancer and the only thing that helped him not be naseous was marijuana. He never smoked before and was not a drug user but it was the ONLY thing that helped him eat. But according to Farley, my friend was just a pothead and didn't need marijuana. He's a terrible person

[SonicYouth5469]

I had this "man" Farley as a teacher in Drugs & Society. He has absolutely no place teaching this subject. Plus he would curse and insult our class. He made racist, bigoted, and sexist comments all the time. Then he would tell us that weed is more addicting than heroin. He is a despicable bitter old man who instead of being a respectful debator just spews out bs facts and insults.

Don't be fooled by this debate, he is very disrespectful and 100x more ignorant then he comes off here

[SonicYouth5469]

@getcruunkk exactly he's making a false connection here. He actually said that kids with lower grades tend to use pot. So wtf does that mean lol. It has zero purpose to this debate. But ppl like him bring kids into every debate cuz they wanna pull on the heart strings of listeners by exploiting kids

[SonicYouth5469]

@ReformKyCannabis I had him as a teacher. He actually believes the crap he says. It's sad. He would curse and insult our class and compare weed to heroin. He is a despicable bitter man who should NEVER be teaching this subject

farley=owned

Also, he was talking about students GPA going down. What the fuck? We're talking about helping people with diseases to deal with pain and suffering. Apparantly this to Mr. Farley means we force our kids to smoke chronic before school.
