  1. This is great but I would also love to see some more historical information too, specifically how it was originally made illegal by deceiving congress so that Dupont and Hearst could make money on a new monopoly patent (making paper from wood pulp instead of hemp which was the standard). Also, I would love to see more information previous to the 60's that show reasons why it remained illegal (because it was a huge tool to suppress minorities and alternative types by putting them in jail and confiscating their homes, or because after the prohibition of alcohol ended a huge body of narc types needed something to focus to keep their jobs, etc). It started WAY BEFORE the 60's and there would even be some validity to asserting that the act of making cannabis illegal was itself illegally pushed through a deceived congress without allowing debate after a strong propaganda push.

  2. Marijuana is not a drug, is not addictive, from the plant to the costumer it is not prossesd, is safe. unlike any other drug or alcohol is laboratory born, is a drug and also kills…what's so hard to understand. Skeptics try it and liked it.

  3. The boy got real stale in his old age. Like a pack of cigarettes left on the bench for 25 years. I'm a little sad, but I still love Tommy Chong. The Weed God Forever! I love you Tom

  4. I have smoked for over 50 years with only positive effects… I have fibromyalgia and it's the only thing that helps ! Taking care of all the side effects of fibromyalgia… Appetite poor sleeping depression and a list of other things !

  5. but is it healthy? I smoke like a damn chimney and I think it’s gonna catch up to me in a sort of way that hasn’t been discovered cause of its recent inception into the flow of everyday life

  6. When I lived in Colorado near Pueblo, I went to his dispensary all of the time. His famous "Chong Star" strain is by far one of the best I've ever had.. It is beyond AMAZING! He knows what he is talking about. The dispensary you see in the video isn't the only one he owns now. A large one is also in Pueblo.

  7. I live in Canada and weed is legal now. I had a prescription for it, it really is medicine when used properly (right strain and dose) the only pain relief cream that has ever worked for me is one my neighbor makes out of Marijuana.

    As for equity, give the growers in prison farms and the dealers license to sell it. Stores take a lot of money to start and run but give the delivery service license to those previously arrested for selling weed. That would bring income to those affected by the war on drugs.

    I say legalize and quality control all drugs. Take the money that was previously spent on the war on drugs and build up mental health and addiction support systems.

  9. Didn't hear anyone mention Nixon's "study" on weed. The Dr that did the study found nothing wrong with it. That wasn't what Nixon wanted to hear.

  10. The true reason for the war in Vietnam was technology. The globalists were perfecting climate/weather control technologies. The drug conspiracy was interesting but not the reason for the war. That was just a result.
