  2. Currently I am stoned off my ass and I thoroughly enjoyed learning this amount of history about cannabis in the Americas. Had no clue that Pancho Villa was so integral to making cannabis a common part of many of our lives. What makes this special is that I learned a little bit more about my culture today. Arriba!

So this was supposed to be about the people riding horses in the western territories… Not Pancho Villa and a rehashing of early pharmaceutical 19th century uses and the Reefer Madness era after 1937.
