tobacco and alcohol are legal and they are way more addictive and it is nearlly imposible to overdose on pot also if they make it legal they could use the money for government programs

so honestly what is the real reason they dont make it legal

I loved this story, especially the emphasis on the ONDCPs continued assertions via press releases and new stories that “illegal aliens” are growing our weed for us. Well, when I was in grad school at WVU I participated in an analysis of working conditions of migrant workers in the apple industry in Eastern WV and Western MD. The conditions the workers lived in were appalling and they were ‘kept’ on those compounds by agreements White House and Musselman’s made with the local sherrif’s offices. It was a modern form of slavery where the workers lived in the compounds, had to buy food and sundries from a ‘company store’ and went where they were told following the harvest. When they were finished, they were shipped home uncerimoniously with their meager paychecks in hand…How is this any better? Remember that when you are spooning applesauce into your kid next time they want a snack.

Sick, pathetic, hypocritical and disgusting. That’s a small sampling of what we can say about this hateful misinformation campaign.

USA! USA! Whatever…

Legalalization of marijuana should have been done a long time ago and It is a medical herb that has no dangerous side effects. The government just wants the people to think it does so they can be so crooked as to shit on the American people. This country was founded under the right to be free and our freedom is being tok away. We need to get together as a nation and stand up to the government and put and end to thier lies and stop being so chicken shit and take back our freedom that was once given to us.Are we just going to sit on our asses and let the government try to fuck us any way they can by keeping the legalization of marijuana and raing gas prices or are we going to join together and fight for our freedom. Well I choose to fight. I don’t care if any one joins the fight with me but Im gonna stand up for my freedom.

John Titter 2036: I discredited him thinking his timetravle story was bullshit. How do we the people feel about our Government? I feel decieved lied to and slightly like a slave. John Titter claimed a Civil War started up in 2006, but never mentions the cause, maybe he delayed the civil war. We are the people we are the Employers of the Federal Government they work for us the US Citizens, we want to get High off of pot so why are they stopping us? Why is Absinthe now legal, who asked for the Government to legalize that? Yeah give the people Wormwood all we need is some retards cutting the ears off like Van Gogh.

Somebody should throw that tool Walters in prison for life for possession with intent to sell and let him get raped in prison. Let’s see how long this douchebag lasts in prison. Freaking Tyrant! This jerkoff belongs in a Nazi Administration not an American Administration.

this faggot ass drug czar needs to sit down and realize its marijuana not like crystal meth. the government is making millions of dollars by putting marijuana users/distrubutars/ cultivators when its not even that bad of a drug. why cant a hard working american or any american for that matter sit down and just be able to enjoy a toke. the drug czar needs to hit a bong or something and relax himself. if its not physically addicting like herion what is wrong with it. it has never killed anyone just from smoking it. and there is no serious crimes related to marijuana. if im minding my own buisness and not involving other people who disprove with what i do is there seriously a harm with that?

John Walters makes not only a total fool of himself, but also shows how out of touch he is with the youth of the country. If he really does want to succeed in the failed Cannabis prohibition, he ought to try to speak as though he is not your great-great-grandfather. This prohibition started in the 1920′s because of illegal immigrants bringing Cannabis into the U.S. Immigration rates have gone up in baffling numbers since then, marijuana use and distribution has gone up in the very same manner, and the country has gone into a swirling black hole of debt. Let’s think about the result of the decriminalization of Cannabis; The government could tax it- this “$40 million garden after taxes could be worth probably $45- $50 million. The prisons would be less crowded, and less taxpayers’ money would be wasted on a foolish old man frolicking in a garden of Cannabis plants making up probably less than 1% of the plants in the U.S. Also, the criminalization was brought on in the form of a stamp act; anybody with a stamp to distribute marijuana was able to. There was one catch, only a few were made. This was tested out on a ban on machine guns to lower the mob violence in U.S. streets caused by the prohibition of alcohol. Could this be in any way, compared to the gang violence on the very same U.S. streets caused by the prohibition of marijuana? Yet there seems to be a double standard for a substance that could rake in billions of dollars annually for the U.S. government and is less harmful than alcohol.

Legal or not, I’m gonna keep on tokin!
Sad waste of over a TRILLION of our tax dollars now since Nixon waged the all out “war on drugs”…..90% of which has only been a war on pot and a war on our own citizens!
What a waste for sooo frickin long!
My only question is:
IF they were to legalize cannabis completely, regulate it and tax it……would the price of da kind nugz drop, hold steady, or go even higher?
I would HOPE they would drop substancially because NOBODY should pay $400oz or more.
A killer ounce of the very best weed in the world SHOULD never be more than $100 IMO….if it was legal and taxed.
Better yet, allow ANY citizen to grow and display their harvests at Weed Markets and LET true free market Capitalism reign in every town in America!
Also, abolish the Federal Reserve and NEVER pay a Federal Income Tax…..which is unconstitutional anyway since there IS NO LAW requiring us to!
Keep Blazin my fellow stoners ’cause with the impending collapse of our global financial system, something’s gotta give soon ’nuff.
We all cannot afford to let these politicians try and convince us that we NEED MILLIONS of more jail cells!
Rate things are going…..it’ll be Wal-Marts and prisons on EVERY corner!
Legalize…..OR completely decriminalize but either way……REMOVE marijuana from the equation in this long-lost “war” of oppression!
CONTROL FREAKS!

wow, the drug czar is one corrupted uninformed man. he makes rediculous comment after another when talking about the dangers and diseases. WHAT DISEASES? Is he talking about the millions of people each year that are helped by this therapudic plant? Marijuana casuses or contributes to no diseases. The entire video is a perfect example of how corrupt our media has become today. Our country should not be blatently lying to us. This is why it is so hard for a decriminilization bill to be passed because CNN and other mainstream news stations implant these false reasonings into our citizens heads. It is time for a change. End the prohibition
