They burnt 2.5 mill of weed? What a waste!
the policeman burning all that weed must be high as a kite
Legalize
"Is it dangerous robbing people that are growing weed?" I guess Vice will just hire anyone nowadays. What a sh!t reporter.
this is episode 4 not 2 lol
Weed Psychosis???? WTF is that now again… Christ, if you go psycho from a lil bit of strong spiff it's more likely that you already have psychotic tendencies as apposed to the weed having created it out of the blue. Human kind is – for the most part – fucked in the head anyway, don't come here and want to blame crap like that on ganja, stupid fucking indoctrinated idiots. Can people really not rationalize their own sensible conclusions anymore?
that is some shitty ass weed
stupid bitch running 6 rooms she said but all her plants are underfed and eating themselves off before even week 5. rookie ass bitch, shouldnt even be in this biz
How do they not smell her next door growing that trees???
lol the fuckin guy presenting this needs to smoke a damn joint
granny: want a cookie?
me: an hour later -_- you smell that burning noise?
How come only Brits get "cannabis psychosis", are you all predisposed to be schizo in your DNA or something? It's a tiny island, that wouldn't surprise me if it were the case. That's my hypothesis.
In America, and likely the rest of the world, the only way you get "cannabis psychosis" is if your schizophrenic. Which means you were born fucked. Sorry.
Iv got schizophrenia and weed is the only thing that stops me hearing voices.
That rapper dude couldn't be anything better than a rapper, freak can't even answer simple questions: whay is the dank of england? Oh well its like the bank of england but its dank innit? Wtf
Even if it’s still illegal I will never give up on it
best moment: 4:20
coz we all crackheads
She's a goat
I want to hang out with that old guy
it was like this in the US 10+ years ago. now its 60-80$ an ounce for premo in oregon, but alot of people switched to Dabs
If youre going to rob someones grow up it better be at the perfect time, otherwise it worthless.
such crap. Cannabis is just like cigarettes, it damages lungs, whatever it does for a few disease sufferers, we can do better by fixing diets, promoting exercice, and developing real drugs that solve issues without side effects like smoke, tar, and the like.
If I didn't smoke weed – I wouldn't have aspired to have a van like this
Best argument for legalisation right there.
Rob the wrong one and get dropped
13:45 the director was puffin
5:27 that gropper is packing heat, leaving her gun just sitting on the couch
this is the dumbest dude ever "throw a net to arrest them" they want to arrest everyone they just cant theres too many people
When i was 8 people started smoking weed it got worst in secondary i dont mind weed being legalised but the other drugs killed kids
My cousin grew weed in his back yard he got caught by his dad and got a really good belt session
I love this vid. With your permission I would like to attach your link to my vid regarding Uk laws and it’s effects on us. Thanks in advance
Let's get one thing straight. You don't get 'high' from smoking weed you get 'stoned'
The governments years behind. You cna pick up weed more easy than you can your shopping. I smoke it like its legal. Walk around my town like its legal too.
Hello friends. Got my first weed online from Bellamy. He’s liable and discreet. You could get to him through +1 (408) 692-4819
Cant they clean up after themselves? Not very responsible.
Tim Farren is an absolute g, people may shit down his neck for a slip of the tongue racism, but he came into my house for a cup of tea and a chat when walking past, I bet if we were smoking a joint hed be like I'm in
We all know the police were only there to get in on that free second hand weed smoke
Does anyone know the Track ID for 1;04 – 2;10 ?? Drum and bass/jazz (kamaal Williams** kinda sound)
What makes me laugh is believe it or not the UK is the biggest producer and exporter off medical cannabis , even British sugar are involved , sounds like there's reasons bud is not getting legalized in the UK , to many fat cats earning money if u ask me
