John Bonghner.
All these old people dont know the weed today is alot stronger lmao but about time Republicans arent being pussies and finally for the full legalization of marijuana. Just federally decriminalize it
He’ll Fox News is probably got stock in the marijuana industry since they don’t like letting nobody tell the truth so they get high and start firing people for telling the truth
Great video!
Legalize weed iowa!!!!!!!!!!!!
John, regarding of my feelings towards Pelosi, at least she has bigger sets of steel than you ever will. Go back to your sewerhole you loser crybaby!!!
Hmmmm…. a reversal in attitude like this usually means someone is applying for permits and a licence to distribute and/or operate grow outlets.
Looks like Boehner is getting to play a lot of golf..
Marijuana legalization was popular with Americans when he was speaker of the house. Legislatures want to make sure the infrastructure, production, and sales are given to who they want.
Big drug companies want to legalize weed because they have gmoed it into poison. They will take it all over .
33 states have realized that marijuana does not … I repeat… Does not … make Mexicans crazy. While the other 17 States still perpetuate William Randolph Hearst most discriminatory War ever.
Keep it illegal please, prices will go down. And i got mouths to feed.
Jesus. Ever hear of sunblock John?
yeah! legalize WEED!
I believe sugar is a lot more worst than pot..how many monster drinkers died over the years…millions of diabetics a year..have you seen the kids at the bus stop…porkers..I don’t smoke it..but the medical value is worthy.
Time for the second failed prohibition to end.
I think it should be. It’s no different than alcohol. I work hard and am productive, I should be allowed.
In America, this may be the one thing citizens are untied in spite of your “beliefs”: legalize weed. Stop throwing harmless people in jail, taking their money and ripping them away from their families.
Time to legalize weed, stop dragging your feet.
Legalize it, solves more problems than it creates
Imagine how much manpower would be freed up if law enforcement no longer had to deal with arresting someone because they had a little marijuana for their personal use. Suddenly arrests would drop drastically. Far few people in jail.
Big Pharma is the problem , and has been for the last forty years ….. Big Pharma kills thousands of people a year …. more than terrorism …… It’s just that they are rich , powerful , and they bought these guys off a long time ago , they bought em all off ….. maybe people’s integrity will prevail , and the world will be better off
As usual, until Big Business has an opportunity to make bank on the deal it’s a no-deal with Republicans. At this point, I don’t care who grows weed. I just want to be able to have the same access to meds as other people. Time for a change.
How does Pot go with bourbon John?
"When the American people are for something, their members of Congress listen"….
then explain the voting records of the 12 Senate republicans that voted to ATTEMPT to block funding to the border wall. Particularly Lisa Murkowski.
Cannabis is the ONLY thing that help on sclerosis, as an example of many unique uses. It can even cure a special type of cancer !
Imagine how many have suffered for so many years, due to government lies about cannabis, worldwide.
Cannabis plants tend to put out more oxygen than most plants. They are good for the environment if we can get more solar energy programs to these growers. It is better than AOC’s plan.
LEGALIZE CANNABIS!
in this time, I m still wondering who kills people? marijuana or pollution.
I’m buying stock in snack cake companies the second it’s legalized. Lololol for real though…legalize it.
I don’t get what’s wrong with you people…. this is still first class slavery…. states and federal government have control of the citizens…. legal citizens that pay your paychecks….. and you have the rights to take away rights just cause live in your country???? We work in your system and pay to live in your system and we have no individual legal citizen rights???? Is that or is that not slavery?????? Make us work!!!! Makes us pay to learn and live and get a god job and do whatever say and pay you for us working???? So many pay for rights to do things like drug companies… but screw the people they don’t own anything stolen by your ancestors????????????????????????
What?! Archaic laws which are "out-of-step" with current times? Unheard of!
Marijuana is not a million dollar or billion dollar industry, its a TRILLION dollar industry that would create hundreds of thousands of jobs across all sectors and industries. So how is this not the #1 topic among politicians when its exactly what this country needs right now, Jobs and Tax revenue to get us out of this soaring debt thanks to trumps "Tax Cuts".
The state cannabis laws are corrupt and make it very hard for people to operate businesses. A separate federal bill should written, not a bill that federally recognizes the corrupt control of the states, which forced anticompetitive practices into the laws and told us voters that it was all or nothing. We need a federal legalization act separate from the states if we want to build a truly competitive market.
It is so bad in Canada that those so called health care workers that use this “medicine” are working together with street pushers to help them go after ther “target”.
The munchie industry would make $$$
They will continue ruining lives of those who seek alternative medicines. Too much money to be made in penal systems for the state governments to legalize. You also have too many politicians in the pockets of big pharmaceutical companies.
The dark age is slowly ending. Glorious.
I’m from Canada. There is a reason why we’re better at getting along with one another. Actually, there’s lots of reasons. But cannabis is one of them.
Mr Boehner may not realize that being for marijuana is being for slave making. And if he does what does that say??
How’s Obama John? You two were quite close.
Marijuana and opioid it is so illegal that it is messed up for youngest children ever is cooling for adults that anyone smoking right near Ovid now let me explain if you see something someone is smoking outside something weird it is not the same way so that means they are smoking illegal and the rest of the people well if they don’t care their own life the life is messed up already because marijuana and opioid had to be so illegal right there because how much damage does so far in the past to the present and to the Future Vine now that I need to stop this right now because I don’t know what the heck is going on I mean everything that whoever smokes or break the law illegally in need to be illegal because they need to stop smoking you know you don’t know that you might well be that the next person I don’t like it really I don’t like it at all this is not the future why look like messed up their life and everyone else they need to fix this you know they need to really really fix this
2Pac said it best: "They got a war on drugs so the police can bother me"
I will never believe that weed is harmless. I saw my tenant going from smart guy with job who started smoking weed turning into the dumbest guy without job. I had to terminate the rent agreement for non-payment
I have wondered for the past 3 years if obliviousness of peril to one’s personal safety has any provable relationship to the immediate and/or lingering effects of smoking dope. Anecdotally, the connection is easy to observe.
You must dumb down the brain somehow, pot is good, Canada has legalized it, and Vehicle accidents are up, Pot related, surprise , surprise, as if the present brain isn’t dumb enough. The good news, at least Americans can get stoned out of their minds to forget the trouble America is in and all the Fake News, you need something to numb the brain. And proof, you can buy your Degree in Universities, now they are churning out Dumb Zombies by the hundreds, your parents can bribe your education, even if you are total Moron.
MWGA Make Weed Great Again !!!!
Doesn’t this all violate the 14th amendment???? When do equal rights come in to play??????
The Pope visited Congress and Boehner had an awakening. He could not be a republican and a good person
