Although this was originally created in an old version of Flash and the .mov files it created were problematic, I managed to import the .swf animation and the sound files into After Effects to produce this file.
Sadly, the lips do not sync in this method of construction. (I have the original .swf file which looks awesome, and if you can use it, let me know!)
Also, I had no sound editing software available, so the audio is raw and hissy. I apologize for that.
Be that as it may, the information presented is crucial in developing insight about why we treat our citizens the way we do.
Enjoy!

This video makes a great point. Legalize it today, get high tonight!

Great video, It works!
However, smoking has been linked unequivocal with lung cancer, and therfore a significant risk exists to any user of a smokable substance.-

not to mention that hemp seeds is the only plant known to contain all essential omega amino acids, has the longest fibers of any plant on the planet and does not deplete the soil of nutrients the way corn does making it a prime candidate for ethanol. Hemp can make anything from burlap to silk and can be eaten as a primary staple food. the possibility of a new trillion dollar industry swept under the rug by pointless demonizing and political biggotry.

it should be legalized. imagine if the government didn't spend all that money to punish users but insteade made off the taxes it produced. the natural way is the best way to go. I have had stomach issues and colon cancer.

You are wrong. In fact, many studies show that marijuana does NOT cause cancer of any kind - and in fact, it DOES help protect from cancer. It may even CURE cancer.
Please do not spread disinformation in this fashion. Thank you. -
Nice job, very informative. I think it's too long and boring for TV. Hearing the microphone hiss, or whatever it was the whole time was a bit painful. Have you thought about compiling any video footage for this?
I don't think the yellow writing at the end adds much other than time to an already long pod.
There are going to be a lot of people that won't like this because....it's true. I gave you the greenlight because I think Current can edit this into something TV worthy, or at least point you in the right direction.
Popular Mechanics, February, 1938 issue calls hemp the Billion dollar crop:

P.S. Smoking Marijuana is so 20th Century. Vaporising and eating it is the way to go.
Oh, and can you submit a better thumbnail picture for your pod?-

Covelogibbs,
There was a lot of info I left out. Yes, it is long, and the pace may be a bit slow, but I am aiming at the Baby Boomers. They are a large part of society and the ones I think need to grasp what's going on. I think the pace is about right.
I would have loved to have had a current version of Flash, and any sound editing software to speak of. I used the Windows Sound Recorder and what I got was what I got. I tried to back off the hiss, but to no avail.
Really, I was quite limited in my production "facilities." [grin]
As for the smoking thing - I agree that there are better methods, but I want people to know that studies show EVEN smoking it is not a major issue.
I'll see what I can do about the thumbnail....
Thanks for your response.
lfm,
Yes, we may hope it is soon, but with the misleading, BS adverts - the Public "Service" Announcements - that saturate our media, it will be difficult to sway those who believe all they encounter in the Media.
Please pass the link to others. Maybe we can give a boost to the movement... -
copy and copy
of course
happy new year! -
Sources? You say that you've found a lot of studies... Do you have a bibliograpy?

The sooner we legalize this medicine, the better. Imagine the horror to the big cigarette and liquor industries. We could use all that money spent jailing people for smoking of selling pot, into our schools and hospitals, One more comment: eating it, drinking teas and using a vaporizer helps protect our lungs. Good work, good job. I love current t.v. thank you all. one love, Hoy
