Tobacco, (cigarettes) kill thousands of people everyday. Yet it is legal, to purchase and smoke them when your 18. Alcohol which once was illegal, is at age of 21. Gangs eventually made it legal from all of the gangsters and such ruling, which in a way kind of became part of goverment in a sense. However too, you can go to war at age 18 to kill someone, but you cant consume alcohol. weird? so why are these things allowed but when i try to smoke some weed which has never had any cases of someone overdosing, im not allowed too? Dont you think somethings corrupt in that?

yeah, somewhere along the lines someone got there priorities mixed up.

unfortunately its super complicated. i couldn't even begin to think why we are where we are now. I mean, just thinking about all the major players in the game and there every move. perhaps if someone would have turned rockafeller on to pot and earth science instead of guns and money.

i really don't know what i'm talking about, but i think its a legit statement, somehow.

i blame oil, cuz if oil wasnt what all the big dudes where invested in, then they never wouldve seen hemp, the miracle plant that could help us do so many things if industrialized, as there enemy, rockafeller and the dupont company pulled their strings in congress.

also if americans wheren such bigots there never wouldve been the tax stamp in the thirties that resulted in countless mexicans getting arrested for cultivating

plus all the rediculous propaganda in the war against weed that straight out just lies about the affects of marijuana to the public, and all of the people that are too stupid to try anything themselves and just believe everything there told and follow blindly

theres SO many things as to why its wrong that cannabis is illegal its all about making the rich richer while the rest of the country goes down hill. and trust me that top ten percent dosnt give a fuck about the kid who just got fucked out of all of his student grant money for having a dime sack

In the 50's William Randolph Hurst lobbied against weed because the excess hemp would have interfered with his paper industries....... Now the Pharma. Co.'s don't want you to take 1 drug that may help many symptoms, when they can sell you a pill for every pain.... think about how many years...no centuries of testing has been done with weed, with minimal side effects........what was I talking about... JK...

Like Lenin said, look to the person that will benefit.

Also, big tobacco and alcohol companies line the pockets of our government officials to keep weed illegal. If week was legal that would cut into their billions very handsomly. Also what twistyman said. the pharma companies run shit these days. 3 of the top 10 forbes 500 are pharma companies, but they make up over half the prophets of those same top 10 companies. just a fun fact for ya

That was in the 30's!

Yeah, we can thank William Randolph Hearst and Harry (that lieing son-of-a-bitch) Anslinger, plus a few others.

What really pisses me off is that both the Brittish and the U.S. governments have done studies (real, in depth, scientific, studies) that show marijuana to be virtually harmless to people; yet it remains illegal - go and figure! The main reasons marijuana first became illegal were Economic and Social. Economic because of feared competition with "Big Business" and Social because certain ethnic minority groups were "easy prey" in that (hopefully by-gone) prejudiced era. It had abso-fuckin'-lutely nothing to do with legitemate medical or psychological concerns (still doesn't as far as I know!). Why marijuana remains illegal is another story - one that is way beyond my humble ability to understand!

To get the whole story, it is really worth a few hours of research, it will really blow your mind!

And WHY wouldn't these companies start selling weed? profit is profit, and its in their lines.

Thats like saying the oil companies don't like ethanol for a fuel. Who do you think have the distillers big enough for that?

Fat Cats follow the $$$.
