The union of marihuana and man
The Union is a fine documentary about cannabis, marihuana (or marijuana) hump. How the prohibition of this plant came into effect and more important why. The documentary is centered around British Columbia long tradition of marijuana growing, producing, distributing and selling. Interested factors are showed about the all positive factors of this plant as fiber, medicine, combustible and others. How tobacco industry kills approx. 400.000 in the US alone, more than all hard drugs as cocaine, heroine and other + all traffic accidents + alcohol casualties combined. How secondary effects of the pharmaceutical industries medicines kill every year thousands of individual, aspirin for instance kills,how this industry only cares about medicines secondary effects as far as it can be proved that they were responsible, else, they wont care putting you down while consuming their “legal” poisons that by the way, most of them create dependencies. This war on marijuana will feed one of the growing and more profitable industries in America: private jails; special forces will feed also from this illegal drug, by the way also by confiscating whatever they get into their hands. But also regimens of advocates and above all of them again the pharma companies, as far as you buy from them, their stuff is legal. On the other hand a striking factor says it all, the number of deads caused by marijuana…oh…let me see…zero, yes you read it right, “0″, nada, rien, niente. That is right. So why is it illegal? because politicians don’t want to acknowledge that either they were wrong or that they were stupid to go with this stream of nonsenses, either reason wont make them reelect. Score: 7.5
