Got to see the 420 Documentary the other night and was thoroughly impressed. This documentary is both educational and entertaining and I must say, I learned a lot about a topic that I thought I was fairly well informed on. I would urge anyone who hasn't made up their mind about whether pot should be legalized to see this film. It is truly frightening to see what has occurred over the years in the name of marijuana prohibition. Talk about stuck on stupid! It is horribly disturbing to see the history of a plant that we NOW know is quite possibly, a life saver for any number of illnesses.
I was struck by the many victims who have fallen prey to our marijuana drug laws. We can no longer justify the incarceration, harassment and/or vilification of citizens who want to use a substance that is less harmful than tobacco and alcohol. Indeed, it is the only substance that has a myriad of medicinal properties that have been suppressed by the federal government for far too long. Unfortunately, I still know people who are not very well informed about the myths and truths of marijuana and to date, I believe this documentary does the best job of making the case that it's time for REAL CHANGE.
Go see 420 - The Documentary. You'll enjoy it.
