What is this, the 30's? Reefer madness is over. Marijuana was demonized by the people in power because of racism. In the 1900's many Mexicans were immigrating to the US and bringing what they called marijuana with them. Cannabis was already present in many American medicines and was recognized for it's medical benefits and then the media took the foreign word marijuana and used it to demonize both Mexicans and Cannabis. People need to stop acting like smoking pot is some horrible affliction based on century old racist prohibition propaganda. Live in the now dude!
