  1. My worry has always been what their planting and mixing it with. Corporate knows how to take something pure and turn it into poison. End up literally smoking on gas…

  2. For many of us its no different then others tobacco cigs. the 2018 farm bill ruined the black market up here in Tennessee. I spent 4 years driving 5 hours to Illinois once a month bc of this. I am SO thankful that Cherokee, NC legalized it and its amazing; but they always run out fast. Half of the buyers have Georgia tags and are from Atlanta metro. All these placebo fake look a like pot places in non legal states have destroyed the black market by making it to untrustworthy to risk spending over 100. God bless the East Band of Cherokee Nation for making my life so much easier and better. Virginia does NOT take out state ID options are — Great Smokey Cannabis in Cherokee, NC / Thrive in Metropolis, Illinois / RISE in Hagerstown, Maryland. Those 3 are closest REAL medical grade that will sale to out of state IDs like Tennessee or Georgia. (for tourists)

  3. I'm all for legalizing MJ for both medicinal and recreational use…

    But it needs to be regulated like alcohol like no DUI or operating heavy machinery

    I don't smoke it, but I do enjoy an edible. Gives me the munchies haha

  4. Idk cam. A guy selling shares to growhouse's bieng productive membef of society – some yn in a shiesty dropping 16 'kna mean' pushing cut grams behind the kfc… there should be a difference in social treatment.
    Like gettin high is fun at the movies or before a buffet. But when your dumbhigh for 24/7of the day without a clear mind thats wack

  5. opinion on weed legalization: It should be completely legal. Its should be sold anywhere a company decides to market their product, with very strong label regulations as well as product monitoring to assure the labels match the product in terms of strength, sativa/indica percentages, etc. It should also be limited for purchase for 16 year olds and up. I say 16 because looking back at when i was 16, thats the age kids my age were going to house parties and looking to hook up and all that jazz. There was a lot of folks there who were doing hard drugs there. I feel like folks would gravitate towards weed more if it was easier to get and sold correctly (sativa for active moments, indica for sleep).

  6. I think it should be treated similar to alcohol. I’m a medical marijuana patient which I am grateful for as it brings a sense of security that I didn’t have before.

    I appreciate the research you did for this. I was baffled when I took a drugs and narcotics class in college and learned the truth about why its a schedule 1 and the race they tried to use it against first before the war on drugs

  7. I'm honestly very sceptical of legalisation because a lot of the information currently available appears more anecdotal than scientific.

    Furthermore, I am aware that addiction to cannabis is real, despite what some say. As you said, smoking every day shouldn't be normal. If you look at liquor shops, the most profitable customers aren't the responsible people who want to unwind on the weekend, it's addicts who come in every day to buy the cheapest and strongest stuff to cope.

    I think a cautious approach is needed, where legalisation is done in steps to ensure we don't breed complacency with our attitude towards cannabis.
    Let's learn from the mistakes we made with vaping.

  8. You're doing a fantastic job! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

  9. i believe in a legal sense it generally should be treated like alcohol, potentially lighter. the only thing i think is tough is driving impaired.

    from my research marijuana isnt as much of an impairment as compared to drinking. though to maintain road safety we need to discourage driving high.

  10. Unless I can grow my own weed, I will never patronize a weed store, because urban people suffered greatly under their “ legal” system for using a plant that is now a billion dollar industry for whites.

  11. I have been DEEPLY ingrained in the marijuana industry, both legally and illegally. This video is spot on, and it’s a WAY bigger issue than you can even know as someone who’s not in the industry. Please keep talking about this. The industry is so f***ed beyond belief.

  12. I smoke like an industrial factory, but my mom didn't smoke. I'm 2006 she lost her job at a mortgage company ( i think it was bb&t). Her co-workers, including the manager would smoke during break and they basically fired her because she wasn't with all that, not like she cared or snitched though.

  13. I don't see any race baiting here. Cannabis has been tied to the black community in America for a long time. We were the people the white people came to to get their weed. Now that they've figured out how to legally make money off it, they're happy to remove black people from the equation. While conveniently choosing never to acknowledge the DISGUSTING FACT that there are still people of color locked up for this plant that they are making billions off of and marketing to soccer Moms. It's abhorrent behavior when you really think about it.

  14. Thank you for speaking on this my brother. I'm from Colorado and I've used cannabis for a long time. To me it's ultimately medicine, whether used recreationally or otherwise. I ultimately believe it should be completely legal, but also regulated to some degree. I was proud to vote for legalization here years ago. But "legalization" of Cannabis has largely been a scam in my opinion. I now believe that the goal was always to push out smaller producers/growers, shops etc and put everything into corporate, or at the least very wealthy, hands. And it's a shame because it all just leads the a worse product for the end consumer. Not to mention that a lot of what has been promised by various legalization initiatives that have now passed in many states, simply hasn't been fulfilled and continue to be ignored. The "social equity" aspect is one of the biggest for me. For example, Colorado, and I think Denver in particular made a big deal out of that concept which was supposed to allow for licenses to first and foremost go to those who'd been disproportionately affected by the illegality of the plant prior to our amendment. People who were already running medical dispensaries and were subject to raids and unnecessary imprisonment along with others with prior cannabis convictions, people of color, etc were supposed to be given priority so to speak. But instead we've seen a lot of entities with deep pockets essentially skipping the line and paying their way to the "top". I don't like that the concept of legalization that's been sold to us in many states is not actual legalization, it's glorified decriminalization at best. And I know that Colorado is not the only state to experience some of the issues I brought up. When it comes down to it we NEED and DESERVE full federal legalization but that's not going to happen any time soon. Like most things in America these days, legal cannabis is being destroyed by corporate/conservative greed more than anything.

  15. I was in the medical cannabis industry in Michigan 2008 til 2019. I got out because all these big corporations – from Cali mostly – were taking over when the state decided to finally start actually accepting it wasn't going away and started regulating. The cost for a license was astronomical, and if you lived north of Lansing, hang it up, "they" were coming for you. I saw a LOT of people get raided, go to jail, etc especially in Clare county. The people who built the industry from the ground up, so to say, were pushed out thanks to these corporations from out of state lobbying (Green Peak comes to mind🤮) and getting the licenses available in municipalities thanks to $$$ & lobbying. It was disgusting to watch a self regulated industry being taken over by greed. Sure, there were some bad players around, but they were pushed out because again, the people who built the industry self regulated and wouldn't let bad things happen. Everyone wanted top quality meds! We had farmers markets, tons of shops to choose from, and great meds.
    I understand not all markets are like this, however the Michigan medical market was and now it's just fancy shops. Great that you can go purchase if you're 21+, sure, and the price has come down a ton, but we had a good thing going that supported those in need and families that was ruined by corporate greed and the need for gov't to get their piece of the pie.
    There are exactly 2 shop chains I would ever purchase from in Michigan if I still used cannabis, and these are shops that are owned by people who were there from the get-go.

  16. my mom had multiple sclerosis and used weed to help her get motor function back, she was smoking it way before for fun she was diagnosed but afterwards she had a reason to smoke it with the medical benefits of it she could have control of her life again. marijuana had many great benefits when using in moderation and not letting it take over your finances and social life. in my opinion medical should be the way to go since it isn’t too hard to get a card and since the state bitches so much about it they can have the taxes it’s a win win.

  17. I think weed should have the same regulations as alcohol. Although I would love some exceptions to the 1st amendment that make it illegal for head shops employees to try and lecture me on indica/sativa, strains, or terpenes. Idgaf, I just wanna get high.

  18. 90% of the people I know who smoke it have nothing wrong with them…. College students, regular working people… I just think it smells bad. Since there are more people with asthma and copd than all those other illnesses ALMOST combined I am a little bias.

  19. THC Marijuana should be limited to and regulated like alcohol. Age restrictions, no advertising to people under that age restriction, licence to sell etc.

    CBD marijuana is a medicine and should have be treated as such.

  20. Seems like the past decade weed been commodified for all of us. You go anywhere and theres a legal strand of synthetic stuff in a smoke shop. Really the repercussions on the war on drugs is just more infatuation 😂

  21. I grew up in Ann Arbor where it's been effectively legal since before I was born. Home of the Hash Bash, we have been calling for legalization my whole life. I think it should be legal for anyone over 18 with no restrictions, and I think under 18 with a prescription or parent's permission or something. It is really quite harmless other than driving while high, much like anything else. Another great video Cam. You rule.

  22. Honestly the policy I'd write would be on par with existing policies around tobacco and beer, require insurance to cover prescriptions if a doctor deems the devils lettuce as preferable to opioids so we could get people off the heron, and federal grants to people who were previously convicted of drug crimes to open legal dispensaries. To me, devils lettuce is a jobs issue, and moving felons out of jail cells and into legal businesses with which they already proved a knack for by getting locked up for it, that's the way to go. You cut down on prison spending, increase the number of businesses that are hiring in the US, and the people most harmed by previous policies turn around and become the ones who benefit most by it's legalization, instead of the typical suit and tie rich folk getting richer

  23. Radical opinion:
    Weed should be legal, there is no reason why it shouldn't be except for people's preconceived notions for what weed does to you and their own personal biases.

    Consumption should be 21+ however it should be treated like alcohol. In some places at least.

    Honestly weed has done so much for me as far as finding alternatives to Adderall, anxiety meds, and more. Im a full on hippie and proud and am tired of the conversation going back to the 1960s every time we have it.

    Let us smoke in peace.

  24. I would be hesitant to use medical cannibis. But I also don't use alcohol or caffine (mostly). I would only use it or recommend using it for someone when a reputable medical doctor would be recommending it.

    I have heard too many stories from people who are way too pro it who say it cures everything and people who are way too anti it and says it will ruin everything that I don't really know what the actual uses and benefits are. Until I reach those issues in my personal life, I won't go to the effort of picking out the useful info from the sludge.

    But that doesn't mean that I am against legalising it – the justice issues with the war on drugs are pretty well known.

  25. Damn I lost my chance to shoot my shot lol.

    Also the caffeine thing is what I've been saying for years.
    Or the fact that Drunk Driving has killed thousands if not millions and that is still legal.

  26. My post-watch thoughts did not change much from my pre-watch. Don't kniw what that says about me, so here, to judge for yourselves:

    1. Medicinal usage should be legalized everywhere, period. Literally the only argument I can think of limiting it is like, don't allow it to be used on patient demographics that it is proven to harm. If there are none, then allow medical professionals to make determinations for their patients (if under eighteen), and allow any patient of majoral age to pursue it, so long as they receive robust information on what they're taking. Preferably in a way that is suited to how they best intake information (written, verbal, demonstration, etc.).

    2. Recreational use should be limited in minors. I'd say, "Don't let a minor have access to weed at all.", due to their inability to consent and the dependency issues that can arise (versus if taught sober ways to manage emotions, physical pain via sober therapeutic exercises, etc.). That said, I'd be down to discuss recreational use under the guidance of a legal guardian, though personally, I believe too many adults of various occupations don't have their shit together. Basically, I'm wary of neglect, but like…that's a way bigger societal issue that I have to focus on tackling elsewhere, so I'm not gonna fight that battle too hard.

    3. I'm someone with chronic pain that uses opiates and other prescribed drugs to deal with my different physical conditions. I have distrust in many medical professionals, as a woman. As you might have guessed from my second point, I can be quite judgemental towards 'parenting styles' and the way children (including teens) can often be legally neglected and mistreated (as someone who grew up mistreated on account of being disabled, especially). But DUDE, I want people to take lesser drugs for their issues, should they determine that's best for their care. If they're not old enough to understand the consequences of major surgeries and other medical treatments, deny it or proceed with caution via someone who can. Merry Jank is such a non-issue compared to the things that have been dogging our species since the dawn of time.
