What is really heartbreaking is alcohol has caused more problems than anything more than fentanyl more than crack more than heroin you just don’t see it.. because it kills you really really slow
Can you grow tomatoes illegal 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ha ha this nation fighting “war on drugs” been a huge failure. MJ is not a drug to me, 😅. If this govt can find supposedly find threat against this country and send SOF after those humans. You don’t think this govt can do the same to drug cartel members, hell this govt could treat them like terrorists but they will not 😅😅
Very sad ! Maybe we should close the boarder and secure the safety of this country ? Let’s ask Kamil a
Marijuana is a racist term to begin with 🤷♂️
If they legalized everything (no Oregon decriminalization it without regulations) and uses agencies like the FDA/DEA to regulate purity, creation method, who makes it, testing etc. Just like they do with pharmaceuticals and food (if not more) I am certian these issues would not exist. If they did it would be easier to stop if regulations were properly in place.
Says the same people letting people who cant legally work in the USA through our southern border. As well as the cartel. Dont act like the government didnt cause this
I can’t believe they work for free. Actually, you should punish anyone on this property. How do you know this person is not the owner of this operation?
It’d not fully legal
if you guys have a grow near you, grow your own, don’t kill the male plants, let the pollen fill the air and make the weed go to seed
Theres still cunts in the goverment thats why its not legal everywhere by now.
According to your video , one guy had health problems in 8 years since 2015 when it was Legal to grow !
What other Factory or job can say that ?
The Government is just Angry because these grow places are making MONEY and the greedy government isn’t getting any of their CUT !
Not all are forced
Seems like an immigration problem 🤦🏻♂️
They wouldnt be using these people etc if there wasnt profit coming from the remaining states where its illegal. Thats where they profit. Duh.
…… give me a break….. dying lol….. you know people CAN and ARE scraping by and "being over worked" …..cuz thats what ya do while you work your way up! Are you guys that upper class and privileged to be so stupid it comes across as forced? Lol……..personally if i over worked someone…..i would drop them off in a limo….into their GRAVE! what illegal slave labor bosses drop over worked people off? You guys are targeting people specificly and using it as an excuse!
Illegal activity, is not the fault of legal weed- number one, catch the law breakers- fully prosecute them. Doesnt matter if its weed or tomatoes.
Ann Maria and her boyfriend Scott flat 4/40 leopold rd Felixstowe ip11 7 np every time they open there mouth there grassing somebody up for weed there classed as weed haters and always grass up big farmers or this evil isn’t happy ones to watch / it’s all they do
Stop ruining OREGON AND THE STATES! And 2nd get those cry baby latins outta there….. plenty of white people that wouldnt complain for air time!
Weed isnt free till the people can grow it themselves and not be taxed
