I work 45/75 hours a week ….everyweek and I smoke at least a quarter of top quality weed everyday if I didn’t have weed I wouldn’t be able to work period
2:03 typical 2 digit IQ blondes that should be removed from this country let alone a news channel, probably drugged up by all the chemicals on face, hair and body, all the sugar and coffee she is addicted to, probably couldn't get by without if her life depended on it, all the junk foods and the alcohol she consumes nightly or weekly, no wonder she is brain dead. I wonder how much they pay these uneducated/unintelligent goons to talk nonsense about a plant that can replace almost all pharmaceutical drugs, cause its those drug lords who fund and twist the news/laws cause they are afraid this one plant will send them out of business. Money controls and bends the laws, if you make 100s of billions, you basically run the government. We all know that its never been a war on drugs but a war on consciousness, same reason why psychedelics are illegal yet continue to prove cures for many illnesses.
Cannabis can do many amazing things, and it helps people live a quality life. I know some people have negative thoughts about cannabis, and we cannot force them to believe in it in an instant. But I hope they can have a more open mind about it.
The old guy needs to study the endocannainoid system and ask why its there for seniors like me its a God send, ignorance at your age is inexcusable yo the greens
Please allowing old men who know very little about cannabis to speak openly on public issues is not helping the hemp industry in general , you should have enlightened him in front of your viewers instead of looking like amateurs
Who let this old foggy on with his predictable reefer madness bill! Move into the here and now, many of the old lines we are hearing are led by special interest groups with no current factual views on regulated weed.
Hydroponically grown marijuana contains 14-18% THC. Mum and dads in the 80’s puffed on 4% THC. Marijuana is NOT a soft drug, it is potent, toxic and a major cause of psychosis in young users. Amsterdam legally sells up to 25% THC.
Its been legal in ACT for 3 YEARS! Hurry up and stop being so rude, this stuff is costing me a fortune just to stay level headed and off pharmaceutical products
If people could grow 6 plants and you have gov run dispensaries Why not make it that people who are gifted with a green thumb or similar quality be able to sell there harvested product to said gov dispensaries and have a taxed payment made to the grower. Regulate gov run dispensaries with work for the dole activities and alternative career pathways/learning
I have a very painful condition that the doctors can’t solve. They will give me opioids for it but instead i choose to have a smoke at the end of the day to help me sleep and not go insane from pain. Leave us mature adults who have chosen cannabis to help us try to survive a world that just doesn’t understand how hard it is to just get out of bed each day. I’ve had enough of other humans who don’t suffer this deciding what i’m allowed to do to feel some relief and not try to exit the world prematurely.
Yes think the green s are right that it will get Australian in a better place with the taxes helping the economy and plus it’s better then the rich investors raking in all the profits on the so call medical marijuana
There is so much stigma and misinformation 'baked' into people's minds about cannabis. Look at the facts…It's not deadly, it has legitimate medicinal and therapeutic benefits (for many, not all as is the case with all medicinal drugs), many high functioning and productive members of society use it without negative affect, we could generate billions in tax revenue from legalization…the list goes on and on. Keeping it illegal does far more harm than good. People should not be considered criminals because they like to smoke a joint to relax or lift their mood or ease their pain in the privacy of their own homes. Its 'high time' people put their judgements and hypocrisy aside and looked to the countries where it has been legalized to see that the pro's clearly outweigh the con's. But that's just me…
I use it now and then had no issues, i even taught myself to write code with c#, quite proficiently, man old fashioned ideas irk me, we are living in a new paradigm for god sakes
People over 50 need to not be allowed in politics; clearly they can't shake their own deeply engrained, false biases even when presented with facts to the contrary
There really is no sensible reason not to legalise cannabis. The benefits from sales and the plant itself far outweigh the disadvantages.
It's not a gateway drug to harder stuff, that dubious honour goes to alcohol, tobacco and pharmaceuticals. I had all three before I even knew what cannabis was and have been addicted to all 3. I've smoked cannabis for most of my life and have stopped, without a problem, for different reasons…work, family ect. Addiction to the former 3 was, and still is a constant issue.
People drink alcohol which is a killer and with pot you might stop at a green light But the guy who drinks And drives won’t stop at that green lights don’t listen to that guy on the right it was okay for all those old Aussie guys who were friends of police and grew tones of it and made buckets loads of cash and never were touched but now these old guy’s are trying to dictate how we live it’s no your place to say no mr nobody
Why not legalize all drugs then? Yes, why not do that. Also love the standard talking points about how strong it is and how everyone will just stop working and be on the dole. Just no facts at all to back those up. Normal anti drug talking points. The future is now old man. get with it or get off the train.
I threatened this country for a job and I still don't have a job. Jobs are scarce especially since covid and I don't think it should be a shameful thing cause, if I had it my way, I'd work and buy marijuana, alcohol and have money to save for other hobbies that I want to do but you're all uneducated and Australia is slow in the head compared to other countries.
Smoking tobacco is harmful and addictive but legal, alcohol the same, at least Maijuana has some health benefits.
Amen we need legal weed and im a medical cannabis user
It's is a gateway drug, gateway to your mind! 😅
if they make atleast 1 state or known city legal. the tax dollars will explode!
lol I wouldn't want the government to be in control of the dispensary look at the department of transport imagine waiting 2 hours to get a gram
Time to legalise could help a lot of people
I work 45/75 hours a week ….everyweek and I smoke at least a quarter of top quality weed everyday if I didn’t have weed I wouldn’t be able to work period
Gateway drugs first one tobacco second alcohol most addictive tobacco biggest killer alcohol get real all you bankers
Just get it done, bring the country out of det,

3:26 Well yes! Portugal has done it and the results are amazing. Old fart.

OMFG I have had two Strokes, this is the best thing ever if we Legalise Canabis recreationally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Breastfeeding is also a gateway drug. It's a well-known fact that many heroin addicts were also breastfed.

Good, about time. Collect the tax and make the supply safe and legal, common sense

I use it now and then had no issues, i even taught myself to write code with c#, quite proficiently, man old fashioned ideas irk me, we are living in a new paradigm for god sakes
Ha Ha it makes total sense
Yahooooo
Long overdue alcohol is way worse than weed!
This bloke really compare a plant to cocaine? Get him off the air
I'm 63 , it is safe , started at 12
How about we criminalise alcohol? How many deaths each year from that drug?
About time.

I don't want to drink alcohol anymore, it's not good for me. Let me consume cannabis instead so I can give up alcohol.
