Growing Cannabis
Someone who did all the real research this guy did bias research. This is a tragic human situation to be teaching your lies to the 2.5k people who saw the video and the few who believe this nonsense. Clean your third eye and see your ability to quit being so submissive to authority. #
I've never hated someone I've never met so passionately in my entire life.
Alex Berenson: Reefer Madness 2.0
This is anecdotal evidence but, I have noticed on facebook that the guys that are always talking about how "badass" they are, and are always talking about how much they like to fight, those are the same guys who are always talking about how much they enjoy marijuana
Cannabis is a very SUBTLE drug. Hard drugs may be dangerous but they are not sneaky and subtle. For example, heroin, after using it for a few months a person knows all about it, from withdrawal symptoms to tolerance, heroin does not hide anything, it's up front and let's you know all about what it does. But cannabis, people can use it for years and still not understand what it is doing. If we was talking about a person, which would you like better, a person that puts the cards on the table right away and let's you know what they are about, or a person that is always hiding stuff and never let you know the real person?
Came here to read negative comments about Alex.
Wasn't disappointed.
Where was the blunt you found? Under your wife's car seat? After she cheated on you with Jamal?
This guy’s a total hack.
psychosis ? define this ..because if it is true that most people dont use. then why is the same sober world so wicked tan by psychopaths and pedophiles and mass murders in power… yet he makes these claims . most those people have layers of drug use and underlining issues .and mix drugs and alcohol..
In what part of history does it show people killing other people for weed what a fuck stick
This douchbag Got a degree in economics trying to tell people weeds bad for you what a piece of s*** I wonder who's paying his salary
They lost , it is very real mon ⌚
Alex Berenson is a paid shill of the alcohol industry. Change the title and Alcohol….is the evil he speaks of. Mothers Against Drunk Drivers asswipes.
I came here because the one from hills dale college had comments disabled. Snuffing out counter argument. What a place!
Another silly shill for the overmedication of America. All the reefer madness loons are dying off, (fortunately), so they've gotta indoctrinate newer generations to follow suit…
Crazy how he was Blowing big pharma almost from the start.
Only ppl that have smoked will know this dude is a piece of sht and should be arrested for spreading bs and mass fear tactics. Btw i haven't smoked in a few yrs so thats called normal anger fyi lol
The Hudson institute is a Conservative group that's supposed to be for small government
1. All the statistics used against marijuana in states where it's illegal that he connects to crime hes neglecting to mention those people are displaying traits that could also potentially indicate and be associated with people suffering from psychopathy or the other dark trio/ cluster c disorders etc. A willingness to break the law prior to the use of the marijuana in the state where it's illegal…
2. The cure to the opioid epidemic is Kratom. Plain and simple Kratom.
3. Crime related to Marijuana directly and factually correlated has significantly dropped in all legalized states. If we're gonna start correlating things without any real substantial evidence conclusively showing a correlation I guess we may as well throw all facts out the window.
4. It is not 1% as a addictive as alcohol. I constantly start and quit purely off of forgetting it exist. I'll go for a few months then one day when I'm doing something I'll just forget it exist and not smoke for a few more months? Quitting alcohol or the pain management regime my dr prescribed was hell, quitting marijuana I didn't even realize anyone believed was a real issue. If anyone is saying their addicted it's more than likely a kid lashing out against their parents wanting to rebel anyways or someone who just doesnt wanna stop like someone who wants to eat sushi every day.
5. Why haven't cases of schizophrenia increased with a significant increase of the population using marijuana.
6. What's this guys agenda? Is he getting money from alcohol companies jealous they dont have their own cooking shows centered around their own intoxicating substance lol.
This guy obviously knows that this is the exact narrative an older naive generation wants to hear so he knows the book will sell to those people and hes exploiting that generation and naive religious people by profiting off of it and at the same time more than likely causing or instigating problems amongst families that have family pro and against marijuana legalization. Most of the problems this man is bringing up like 99% can be attributed to the fact it was recently legalized and most the users come from a generation of it being illegal and people still thinking what they we're taught "reefer madness" when it was illegal. This man is doing tremendously more harm than good…
Alex IS A PHONEY PUSHING FAKE NEWS WITH AN AGENDA…,,!!! DON'T believe his crap,,,,!!!!
This guy is a quack
He puts the "fuck this motherfucker and shoot him right now" in shoot him right now..
Funded by pharmaceutical company…who has already proven to be unethical and harmful to public🤔 …
This guy is a hero. I have lived my life completely destroyed by extreme anxiety caused by a couple experiences with this (literally 5 inhales). Fucking legend. About time fucking time. Everyone, everyone, everyone in mental health knows!!!!
Great video. I am buying your book and planning to start an adolescent marijuana recovery group program. Been a substance abuse counselor for over 35 years, and seen how this drug has been looked at as not a problem. I am sober and clean over 40 years and beginning to watch many people in AA relapse on marijuana.

Alright, everyone pack up your bongs. Party is over. Back to bible study,
Tragic in the sense of education. Consider Portugal with no illegal drugs for 15 years!!! I tell my kid that his musician friends are using THC, his banker friends snorting in the bathroom and his police friends banging down the beers at the BarBQue. You have to have your own code of conduct and strive to advance the human cause. WATCH Portugal,, Amsterdam, Morocco.
I don't disagree with the marijuana facts, however I think it's important to point out there's a differens between Marijuana induced Schizofrenia and regular Schizofrenia. Also 90% of patients with regular Schizofrenia are not violent!
Video doesn't start until 1:28! Good video though!
Hardly anyone has watched this, the local hysteria loving news channel seems to have picked this story up somehow, more pseudo- science in the name of self promotion, sorry we don't buy it, nor buying the book. If anyone looks mentally ill, I think it seems to be our good buddy Barrensen, sitting there throwing the media under the bus. Your no Ralph Nader, your more like Ralph Cramden.
Just listened to this guy on Book TV. He didn't seem to want to believe it when people who were having to take chemotherapy said that THC made them feel better. He said it would be just as effective for them to take a placebo or have a shot of booze. I have to admit, I've never had chemo let alone try THC for nausea but I would tend to believe those chemo patients over this bag of wind. I've known women who indicated that pot would ease their pain from cramps. I suppose this dipsh*t would doubt that too. I used to hear about tests the military did with pot. Apparently they would administer doses to an individual to be the equivalent of several ounces of pot with enough THC to cause the patient to have tremors. I'm not going to tell you pot is totally safe. Inhaling anything but fresh air might be a bad idea. You should be the judge of your own experience. When the thrill is gone, don't be afraid of change. Sometimes, the change will do you good.
This dudes wife is a dumb bitch lol.
starts off by saying how great RX medications are
This guy is a coke head 😂😂😂😂 the irony.
John Boehner is a heavy smoker…of cigarettes…but honestly, he always looked stoned to me.
Thank you, Alex Berenson !
Vaccines cause autism.
This slimeball is a liar. He is just repeating all the myths about hemp.
Only the positive aspects of marijuana have been ignored. These individuals are trying to keep the prison industrial complex going.
Terrific discussion thank you.
Cannabis was made illegal for 2 reasons, political and financial reasons for individual gain. How many people have died from marijuana? Zero,ever. This video is propaganda. There is no violence associated with marijuana.
What folks do not realize that schizophrenia is such a huge burden to a society, millions of mostly young men that have this can't hold a job, usually families give up on the radical behaviors they can no longer Control in these young people..no one knows really how schizophrenia is caused , much less how to cure it, dumbed down with medications make them unable to do much of anything that's usually why they do suicide.. paranoia is extremely hard to live with 247 day in day out..I know of very few cases where murder is done by schizophrenia, it's usually suicide. Along with marijuana usually crack is used and this does induce many violent behaviors against others and themselves.. I think it's part of the government plan and making today's marijuana available so young men can use this and do develop many psychological behaviors that could put them at risk and influence society in a negative way.
Canabis is so heavily regulated that you are not allowed to RESEARCH its property. This is retarded and the legislation should change
The negative effects of Marijuana have been ignored? Lol it’s been all reefer madness up until about 10 years ago… and before the studies can be done – this guy is writing a book on it and being promoted by you.
This guy, “we don’t have enough data .”
Also this guy, “Cannabis is causing psychosis.”
🙄
