I must say. This is a phenomenon that makes complete sense, but you have to realize the rest of the world is in complete awe of the fact that protestors in Canada have continually occupied, and rolled joints, in the offices of their MPs, with the police present, and receieved virtually no problems. Amazing. Keep up the good work

Montel Williams lights up after the Sheriff advizes him that’s it’s apparently no problem in Maine. He remarks “Montel, Why Don’t you just take your medicine” at which point Montel sits down and lights up.

Let’s face it. African Americans have created the majority of American culture in the 20th century. By that I mean that their contributions to Music, Entertainent, and Culture have spanned the globe and left an everlasting impact upon the American landscape. One need not look further than the influence of Hip Hop and Graffiti to see the lasting impression this minority has made on the planet. Let’s not forget about Jazz, The Blues, and Rock and Roll as well.  And alongside these great cultural strides  we also see how the roots of marijuana prohibition are dangerously intertwined.
