    I know most people that post here do not need to be convinced that marijuana should be legal. I am watching one of the greatest shows I have seen explaining everything there is to know (almost) about marijuana and why it is illegal and the ramifications of the war on pot.

    I suggest pro and anti marijuana supporters to watch the video. (Even tho it is long) This is a great watch. There is a lot of information that the pro pot supporters have heard many times but the guys who made this movie put everything together perfectly.

    Ha Ha! Yeah I saw hour and a half and thought it was way too long. But when I started it to just check it out it grabbed my interest right from the start and I watched it the whole way through. It is pretty interesting even for people that are aware of a lot of it.

    A lot of people fail to realize that the fact that pot is illegal and the government spends so much money fighting it is the main reason there are so many great strains out there.

    This book discusses it. Great read btw.

    I DLed a bunch of MJ docus awhile back, like CNBCs Marijuana Inc, The Union, etc. Havent watched but one or two. But the other day when I was waiting on the Hatfields/McCoy to finish DLing, I started watched this Union doc. Exact same thing happened. It grabbed me and I watched it all. Pretty great treatment of the whole issue.

    I thought that might be the case. I was surprised I had never seen it before.

    at the end of the day marijuana is still an illegal drug and it should remain that way.

    marijuana is a gateway drug, and leads to harder things (ask me how i know)

    If it became regulated by the government, what is next? government coke? Hair-onnn?

    Yeah lets keep funding the Mexican Cartel with 80-90% of their profits, have very few Americans make any money on it (except of course illegal drug dealers), and not collect any taxes off the revenue. Just like when alcohol was illegal, people will only smoke it if its legal! AND alcohol is number 1 gateway DRUG not marijuana. GTFO (sorry if you were leveling).

    shouldn't human beings be able to choose whichever drug they please to put in their bodies? i say inform people of the facts about all drugs and let them choose.

    If you watched the doco, you would realise how retarded that statement sounds but I wouldnt expect anything less from you.

    Great doco, can't believe its like 5 years old and havent seen it before.
