    Marijuana isn’t this dangerous as people think it is there’s a lot of things that are way more dangerous like cigarettes they don’t only use nicotine they use tobacco as well as a few other addictive chemicals Beer & Liquor as well as wine is one more harmful as well as over the counter medications prescription medications caffeine gasoline carbon monoxide sugar hey almost everything is harmful not only to humans but animals as well as for the environment why don’t you just go ahead and band everything see what happens just go ahead and legalized marijuana there are more things you should do be worrying about like I’m saving the environment saving children and animals that are being abused prostitution helping people who are disabled get jobs racism and a whole lot of other things

    Marijuana will have an effect on a young persons brain but all of the antidepressants and other psychotic drugs fed to our kids are good? Half our kids brains are messed up long before they have their first toke….



  4. codeDart on November 5, 2021 at 12:10 pm

  5. Humancigarette on November 5, 2021 at 12:11 pm

  6. Sakuwa on November 5, 2021 at 12:11 pm

  7. Mike Hagarty on November 5, 2021 at 12:13 pm

    It’s the commercialization of cannabis, by big business!
    We should be able to buy organic pot, at our local farmers market!



  8. Kooka Munga on November 5, 2021 at 12:15 pm

    It is sad but those are the final gasps of the dying reef Madness prohibitionists . We potheads won you lost,now suck it up ! I expected those representatives of the ignorant masses to make there one last " Waterloo stand ." The prohibitionists are out of style .



  9. Joshua on November 5, 2021 at 12:15 pm

    Anti pot people are worse than climate deniers.

  12. Clone Ranger on November 5, 2021 at 12:22 pm

    Ignorance should be recognized as a disease condition.



  13. Ray Malhotra on November 5, 2021 at 12:22 pm

    and yet tobacco and big chemical drug companies seems to get a free pass. That’s far worse



  14. I Cant Say It on November 5, 2021 at 12:24 pm

    "How do you look at yourself in the mirror!?"
    "I smoke a joint." 😁



  15. Chris 011 Fresno on November 5, 2021 at 12:25 pm

    Legalize all drugs!!!



  16. R C on November 5, 2021 at 12:26 pm

    LOL I love how all of the cannabis users just completely ignored this small group of people whining and complaining about cannabis being legal, these are the types of people who love to hear themselves complain about anything and everything, but as you can clearly see no one cares what that small group of simpletons think.



  17. Indie Rivers on November 5, 2021 at 12:29 pm

    They want more Opioids…



  18. Tin Na on November 5, 2021 at 12:30 pm

    Lol. That American must really be scared of marijuana, he even goes to other countries to prevent people he has nothing to do with from legally buying it.



  19. a person on the internet on November 5, 2021 at 12:32 pm

    I AGREE WITH THE ANTI WEED PEOPLE



  20. Firstname Lastname on November 5, 2021 at 12:32 pm

    “The rally was les by former U.S drug policy advisor”
    *Chuckles*



  21. Seven on November 5, 2021 at 12:35 pm

    People are so active to prevent legalization, because it’s “ bad for the mind “, meanwhile kids are throwing themselves off buildings, and bridges, but stopping people from smoking some plants to feel good is more important apparently.



  22. Chris 011 Fresno on November 5, 2021 at 12:37 pm

    I lobe drugs



  23. c g on November 5, 2021 at 12:40 pm

  26. jkmarble jk on November 5, 2021 at 12:41 pm

    Yes but drinking is fine apparently:) and people can get like 5 DUIs and not see jail time. One lady got like 15 year for killing a man while driving drunk for the 3rd time. 🙂 15 years only our system is messed up.



  27. Patrick Ruch on November 5, 2021 at 12:42 pm

    So can they export to other countries that have marijuana legal ? Or would that be against international law? Asking for friend.

  35. uindy4 on November 5, 2021 at 12:47 pm

    Anti marijuana supporters should be found out and have the USA punish them.

  41. Doug Allen on November 5, 2021 at 12:53 pm

    Keep fighting the good fight, we will make marijuana illegal in Canada again.



  42. Anonymous User on November 5, 2021 at 12:55 pm

    I will NOT back the blue until cannabis prohibition gets completely lifted on both state AND federal levels!! It’s time to give cannabis users back their rights!! It’s time to give medical marijuana patients back their gun rights!!



  43. WildandLiving on November 5, 2021 at 12:56 pm

    Henry ford said electric cars made out of hemp is the future. It was lighter and stronger then steel. A farmer could grow hemp then create bio desiel to run the tractor



  44. Jordan Baldi on November 5, 2021 at 12:58 pm

    At the end of the day, both groups sat down and lit up and got high together.



  45. Husk on November 5, 2021 at 12:58 pm

    Ignorance and close mindedness.



  46. Michael Angellotti on November 5, 2021 at 1:00 pm

  48. miapdx on November 5, 2021 at 1:01 pm

    Please people. We’re legal here, and don’t have problems. But my, the income it’s generated! The taxes alone are a windfall. It’s now an industry. Grow up.



  49. Leonardo Araujo on November 5, 2021 at 1:04 pm

    it must be a difficult task to be a anti-pot activist in Vancouver



  50. FunnyComputerGenius on November 5, 2021 at 1:07 pm

    Someone needs to add CBD oil to all their waters.
