MrFisksays...*promote
siftbotsays...Self promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Friday, February 28th, 2014 12:35pm PST - promote requested by original submitter MrFisk.
articiansays...I always thought the biggest mistake for the path of legalization was declaring it a medicine. Imagine if you could only buy alcohol via a prescription from your doctor? Ridiculous.
I hope we shake the BS-infection from our society someday...
eric3579says...lol, really? Ive never met or known any dealers of pot, or any other drug for that matter, that resembled anything close to what they are portraying here(others may know different). Looks like a bs fear based ad, to get people who dont know any better, to use their service. I just cant stand ads that use fear, real or fake, to manipulate people into using a service or purchasing a product. No different then the kind of bs they used in the "don't do drugs" lying fear based scare ads from back in the day. The weird thing is how does buying drugs from a dealer equate in some fashion to getting an appointment to see a dr for a prescription. Just a bizarre commercial for what they are selling. I guess i have some fantasy that the marijuana industry would take the higher road when it comes to their business practices. Someone check my head if im seeing this all wrong.
-edit-
I do however think it will be good fun when we start seeing weed related commercials popping up on TV if that is going to be allowed to happen.
newtboysays...That's actually how alcohol was sold during prohibition sometimes, as medicine. I don't think there were prescription requirements though.

newtboysays...I hate to say it, but I have seen guys like this and worse when I was buying pot in EPA back in the day, and even had a friend that was like that to strangers. It was weird.
I also wondered what a Dr appointment has to do with actually BUYING the weed, unless they also promote dispensaries and just forgot to mention it (...because they got high!). What they seem to want to be saying (but can't because no one would believe it) is that 'pot doctors' are like this guy...and I sure hope that's wrong!
And yeah, I'm waiting to see some comercials for the weed based sodas and other products that I hear are popping up in Colorado.

Trancecoachsays...And yet, wouldn't ya know it, that is precisely how people got alcohol during the U.S.' aimless Prohibtion.. from their doctors (as medicine) or from the pastors (as sacrament), or as homebrews.

Trancecoachsays...Yes, of course prescriptions were required. How else were the physicians gonna get in on the crony racket, diagnosing "debility" from everything from a hang-nail to gout?
It's a "good" thing the good ole American government had other ways of managing those who didn't abide with their prohibtions.

Reminds me of paraquat on marajuana.
