The History Channel aired a nice documentary worth taking the time to view and in that documentary, the movie you brought up is discussed. The politics and laws are changing on the matter as the realization that bad laws were created and continue to be enforced. Health Sciences Group, with stock symbol, HESG.PK is attempting to be on the forefront of this public policy shift.

I fully expect that there will be those with differing opinions. However the majority of these opinions seem primarily morality charged, without scientific fact or historical understanding of the background of the first laws surrounding marijuana. Perhaps the real motives to prevent legalization in any form, are really just based in economics or worse rascism *(see History Channel Documentary) and the real opposition includes but isn't limited to the following industries: Alcohol, Tobacco, and Big Pharma. Of course there are others that would like to keep it illegal, and that would be the criminal elements that are currently able to command higher prices with the product remaining illegal.

The sad fact is that The United States of America has more people in prison than any other country on the planet, with a vast majority of the individuals incarcerated for marijuana. The drug war is a complete and total failure and the drug laws associated with marijuana are not consistent with a free society.

What is amazing to me is that the southwestern states were the ones that were the first proponents of making marijuana illegal *(History Channel Documentary), and now those same states are proponents of making it legal once again.

Freedom must be earned every day and not taken for granted.
Don't be brainwashed by government propaganda, think independently.
