#Cannabis #Marijuana #Legalization
Just make it legal everywhere already.
I stopped listening when they compared Weed and Booze, theres no comparison….
I got fired after having the job for 2 months cause I used delta -8 .003 thc and it came up I did a 12 hour course with allied security and a day shadowing 8 hour shift ! Then fired me cause test results are back thc ! Stupid
Cannabis causes hallucinations and impotency and needs to remain illegal. It is not safe for consumption.👮
First of all, why are local, state, and federal governments telling us how we should treat our bodies in the privacy of our own homes, especially these so called companies who couldn’t care less about our livelihood?
Secondly, cannabis has been wildly growing for thousands of years as a medicinal plant. Hemp alone, is a huge commodity cash crop.
Thirdly, if cannabis was decriminalized, medical research could be utilized to gather more information about cannabinols that provide healthy benefits without side effects. Let alone, prison over population for petty drug offenses would ceased to exist.
Fourthly, why are humans exploiting its benefits for purely profits?
There are so many people who are responsible adults who utilize cannabis and it doesn’t effect their careers nor their personal lives.
This is sooooo Fu%-$+$ked up
The war on drug was all just to target black and brown, and now the whites get to enjoy marijuana with out no fear, now tell me what's does it mean to have white privilege???
Annnddddd productivity reaches an all time low. Researchers are baffled!
NO maybe this is why there is so much digusting Customer Services in these companies, HIGH in LA LA Land!
ðŸÂÂðŸÂÂðŸÂÂðŸÂÂðŸÂÂðŸÂÂ
Please stop covering this until people in prison for nonviolent “crimes†aren’t in prison for literal nonviolent “crimesâ€Â
Weed and alcohol – no difference. Don't believe the hype!
I've smoked some of this new stuff, trust me you do get a hangover. Weed will affect your productivity
What happened to Biden and Harris legalizing? Could help with a lot of national debt!
The World I Always wanted to live InðŸ‘ÂðŸ™Â
You share a Joint,
You dont do "Cheerrrrrsss"
thats just weird!
Hire me please lol 😂
Wait and give it more time.. The truth about the adverse effect shall not come out yet.
Making people Stupid it's not the same as it was when Bob Marley was a live now it's more Like a virus
Celebrating a drug that can be addicting……this is wrong I'm not against legalization but I'm against the glorification of it
Don't take weed. It makes you weee!
When will minorities be able to blaze up at work
It probably makes everyone feel better more relaxed
(Peter tosh)Legalized it and I will advertise it
2:53 the bad side of cannabis. 😂
2:53 By far the the most CRINGE thing I have seen this week.
you are destroying the youth .
Amazon lied they just test me for a job.
There’s people in prison doing life because of this.
Good way to get more ppl into addictive drug and later more harmful ones like heroin. It’s all about money and control, never about your stupid illusion of “freedomâ€Â
the J rolled by the ceo is awful
IN MY DR.DRE VOICE SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY
How do I apply to this company 😅😅
Lmao. I never thought that the time will come, when your boss will make Townhall meetings where people do drugs.
Rolling a joint with your… no thank you.
Let me work for you. Dont even pay me. Just pass me the point. Puff puff pass.
There is no use in having more drugs the amount of drugs people can consume is limited
Companies aren't coming to grips. They are crumbling just like the rest of our society
The feds got to legalize it so my pot stocks explode
