It’s wild you can drink yourself sick and end up hurting others but if you smoke alittle weed you are a sinner. Strange world
Not everyone drinks themselves sick or hurts others, in the same light that cannabis isn't or everyone for a multitude of reasons.
I'm not pro or against alcohol or cannabis

8 years later we still haven’t legalised it fully.
There have been massive steps though.. it is not the same as what it was
lol smh 😳
And?
There's people in Texas right now in jail for simple possession. Vape cartridges are a felony. Wax and shatter is a felony. That's messed up. Thomas Crooks should have did someone in Texas.
If you are really sick you can get a medical cannabis card online and order from many shops...he's definitely 100% legal right now! What should I say about my country (or an European region now that it is clear that without a national currency you cannot be a country anymore!)France where they stopped the test program months ago after 3+ years and since not a word about medical cannabis here...and it's not a surprise since mainstream medias did everything to put in people's heads that hemp or CBD is the same thing then medical cannabis...who lead to confusion and lots of people who believe that medical is allowed since a long time to be precise since they talked about SATIVEX who never made his way to France...and our politics still have the same point of view on medical cannabis it is a myth a scam and just a trick to legalize recreational cannabis...

I’m a medical cannabis patient it’s legal on private prescription but costs a lot. I can’t afford the amount and the strains I need. It’s legal if you’re rich. Illegal if you’re poor. Growers get arrested if they are poor and get lots of profits if they are rich and well connected. Yet I’m prescribed opiates regularly and have been for over ten years! I was offered fentanyl on a recent hospital visit yet cannabis would have helped me enough. How many people die from fentanyl a year? No one ever died from cannabis
The medical cost is around £50 per 3 months. Very old and out of date video - law changed in 2018
Edit: to clarify, the medical costs to obtain a legal prescription, that is, the piece of paper that allows you to possess cannabis, will cost medical fees from £15 a month (Alternaleaf) or £50 for 3 months (Curaleaf) - other clinics have different fee structures.
The cost of the cannabis from the pharmacy starts at around £5 a gram for basic flowers.
Hope this makes it clear as only a year or two ago the biggest expense WAS the medical fees, not the weed itself.
@@zebj16😂
@@Starryeyes65 I don't think the current situation is great but £15 a month is not extortionate - and the flos is much safer than BM stuff. There are more important issues to deal with, like treating the mental health crisis.
@@zebj16 yeah but I think it was meant the price of flowers
@@dribbledbyronaldinho1539 Don't know BM price but £5.50/gram for 20% THC flowers also seems reasonable - obviously not as cheap as grow-your-own, but I am looking for reliable medication so I can function, not trying to get stoned.

PROHIBITION DOES NOTHING BUT MAKE MORE JOBS FOR THE POLICE STATE
It doesn't result in more jobs in the police force. It only creates easy targets to get yourself a promotion, all the while causing a completely unnecessary workload that prevents the police from dealing with more complicated (and often times more important) things.
@@Nitidus The jobs are in the prisons, not the police force, also its a free source of labor. The US has this strategy nailed.
prohibition is only when government cant put taxes on something
One thing you actually need to realise it’s making it legal doesn’t always work because people are going to want to go to criminals who have done it illegally and don’t pay tax because the price will be lower
@@UKsystems weed can be grown very cheaply in legal conditions and there is no cost for the illegal side of smuggling. legal weed will always be cheaper than black market only reason it is not in newly legalized US states is bc of corporate monopoly and crazy cost of obtaining permit
14 years in prison? and I just got weed delivered to my door. smfh. and there’s a dispensary on literally every corner in my city. and there’s STILL people in prison for years on bullshit charges for a plant that greatly improves so many lives.
You mean escape their life's, moste daily smokers are just addicted and shouldn't be using at all
@@pascalramael5678 You could say the same with alcohol.. and that's legal. Prohibition does nothing.
@@pascalramael5678weed is the only thing that slows my brain down besides adderal.

@@pascalramael5678
A lot of daily smokers do it for a relief, like how some smoke cigs, vape, drink alcohol.
I have experienced addiction to weed, though it's still super helpful.
I smoked during a long boring depressing part of my life, and without it... I'd probably be dead.
Sure, could have gone to a therapist for it but I wouldn't have anyways... Similar to many others.
Weed can be extremely great for a weekend calm down, or out relaxing with friends.
A lot of my IRL addicted friend's are smoking spice, one of my old friend's HAS DIED FROM SPICE.
They thought it was real weed, but it's a market that only exists because of it NOT BEING LEGAL.
Alcohol is super comparable to weed, and the massive difference is that *WEED'S A LOT SAFER*.

Let's recap what causes cancer.
@@AndreeaCebeing born is enough
U can only drink water and eat bread and u still have a chance for cancer
Factual..
These are older documentaries from the Weediquette series Krishna did. Medical cannabis became a thing in 2019. All you need is a medical (mental or physical) condition and have tried 2 therapies and/or medications that have been unsuccessful. The initial set up costs are pretty steep, but it's not too bad once you're with a clinic. You've got a choice of flower, oils and tinctures, and get a free vape kit with your first consultation. It's not heading anywhere recreationally speaking, but the UK sorted its medical cannabis stuff out which I'd say definitely takes priority. Hopefully they'll add home growing to the list of medical cannabis benefits.
For anyone wanting to do Hidrows extraction method its really easy:
1. Place both your trimmings/bud (whatever material you are using) and your Extraction medium (I use food grade Ethanol)into the freezer to get as cold as possible.
2. Once both sufficiently cold (look for 4-8 hours minimum cooling time) place both in a container.
3. Shake/Mix the mixture for 10 seconds (You can do multiple runs so dont worry about not shaking enough, being too rough will cause more chlorophyll to be extracted).
4. Using a filtering method, I use cotton placed between two coffee filter sheets inside a metal Sive. Pour your mixture through, do not press down on the material to force more liquid out on first or second run to minimise chrlorophyll extraction.
5. Pour you filtered liquid into a water Distiller. (These are very cheap nowa days)
6. Ensure you know how much liquid is placed into the distiller so you can stop the distillation at 85% distilled.
7. Once 85% of alcohol is extracted, turn off the distiller and leave to cool.
8. Setup a double boiler on stove if you have an indoor extractor fan above your cooker, or alternatively use a hotplate outside. Remember that alcohol vapour is flammable so try to ensure you dont set yourself or others on fire.
9. If you can use a heat source to extract then place your mixture near an open window for a day or two.
10. After heat/time evaporation of remaining alcohol, use the end of a spoon or other metallic object to scoop a little and then away from the mixture bowl apply a heat source such as a lighter. If the material sparks or set alight then it needs more evaporation time. If not then Well done you now have a pure oil.
Extra Tips:
If you extract before placing in your distiller is very green or even just a hint of green you cna use a strong light to break down the chlorophyll easily. Just leave under a light untill all the green has been removed, please place a lid on your container so not alcohol evaporates.
This oil itself is best used for edibles and such, I personally create my own vape juice using terps for custom flavours. My most recent one is a Trpoical Lemon CHerry flavour :D
What kind of terps are you using? Ive wanted to make my own juice but when it comes to terps it gets confusing for me
Do you evaporate all the alcohol off and then add terms? Also do you need to declare for vapes?
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, alcoholism, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Congrats on your recovery. Most people don't realize that psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Belarus. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
Shrooms saved me from meth addiction too. Psychedelics could really help addicts a lot!

it's not even legal in all of the states in the u.s.a
UK cannabis laws are quirky, to say the least. It is perfectly legal to buy cannabis seeds from a weed paraphernalia shop on any UK high street, yet those seeds can only be sold as "souvenirs", about which buyers must NOT discuss growing with the seed sellers. IT is time for the UK to follow the lead of Holland, Germany, and other EU countries that have legalized cannabis and thereby opened up a multi-million-pound industry.
here here im in the uk
I'm surprised we still don't have this legalised, it would've been great for the economy after covid. But at least people can get it medicinally I suppose
multi-billion*
Canada is the model to follow.
Holland is going backwards… I would bet money they fully re criminalize within a few years.
Those multi billions are being made by the licensed companies that sell there product all around the world lol but not in the uk
In my opinion, cannibis doesnt dull pain. It takes your consciousness away from the immediate, visceral, inescapable nature of pain.
I used to smoke A LOT. In college i would lift weights on a sativa, it really felt great. It really helped me meditate during the process. Focus on my form and breathing, the pain of being near muscle failure was a dull noise in the background.
That being said I havent smoked in 10 years. But I recognize both sides.
Some people are always baked, 12 hours a day. I cant see that as a good thing. Peoples memory is gone, motivation sucked out of them.
Others cant wait to smoke a joint after work, kick off their boots and watch the next episode of that one show.
Still others get a medicinal value from it.
All i know, is that its a crime to lock someone in a cage for years of their life, all for cultivating plants.
It should be up to the people to decide for themselves. Government prohibition simply keeps the prisons full, and the markets black.
Decriminalize everywhere.
The couch lock issue you adressed is alot to do with the street canna. Albanian gangs and triads dont want to grow nice uplifting plants, they want heavy hitting, practically siezure iducing in new smokers...
Even the idea that smoking is the main way to consume. Big problem, big big issue. Especially given people smoke a large amount, and with tobacco
I use Cannabis daily since getting diagnosed with ALS.
The icebucket challenge didn't work???
Typical, government can grow it and sell it for ‘pharmaceutical use’ but we can’t even have a joint. lol 😂

Psychedelic mushrooms and cannabis should just be legalized in the entire world. Way better option than alcohol and there are actual medical benefits instead of just being a party drug like alcohol.
I lost a friend to heavy alcoholism last year and still know those who struggle with the negative impact of drinking regularly. After 35 years of involvement with cannabis, I've never witnessed such ill effects, despite the UK government's obsession, at one stage, with cannabis use apparently being linked to schizophrenia. Mental health issues can arise from heavy use, but with harm reduction/ education we can further reduce the minimal chance of this potential outcome. Better to educate than cause harm? Obviously, but, again, the UK's policy makers would sooner ensure otherwise.
@@ironmongol75 The alcohol and tobacco industries have absolutely cutthroat lobbyists. Cannabis is a HUGE threat to the alcohol industry. And also the pharmaceutical industry. It's basically old people in expensive suits gatekeeping a plant from us, and would rather ruin lives and throw young people in *prison* rather than give up the tiniest slice from their billion dollar industries. It's kept from us out of selfishness, politics, and special interest groups.
It's so wrong, but I'm doing my part in normalizing it. I used to grow a long time ago (can admit now that the crime has expired, I don't even smoke anymore) and I gave it out for practically free. And by showing I'm just a normal dude, not some shady criminal. I do use a lot of CBD though.
and see this just legal ,what would happen when kids and people with mental illnesses ect got hold of this unregulated drug .
The syringe with black stuff is called RSO. It's extremely safe to make. Don't listen to this show. Just heat flower to 240F for 30 minutes. Then soak in Everclear for 1-2 days. Then sit in a shallow dish over night and it'll all evaporate. Use a germination pad under it with a fan blowing over the top. No hot plate needed. 1 ounce of premium flower will produce 5-7 mL of RSO. ❤
this is a re upload from almost a decade ago. We've come a long way since then in everything from growing, manufacturing, pricing, and legality
They said they’re making 20k lbs per week. I don’t think they had the time to let it evaporate on its own. This was also from 8+ yrs ago. But yes your point is a good one that it doesn’t need to be such a dangerous process. I wish Vice would have explained the process for everyone to know. Knowledge is power. They didn’t even mention it was Rick Simpson oil.
@@jdmarjay Even a decade ago there were way safer methods that were well known lmao
@@bnewman21 yeah for sure. I thought I heard a huge number but then I saw how he was making it. I used to use an induction stove top outside to make exactly like he is doing, but the quality is so poor compared to air dried. I cured a beautiful purple pink leaning strain and the RSO was a burgundy color. Such a beautiful extract.
@@5threel seriously Rick was doing this safely in the 70s. Been around a long time.
the UK's illicit cannabis market is worth approximately £2.5 billion annually. If cannabis were legalized, tax revenues alone could exceed £1 billion per year, with additional savings to public services amounting to at least £300 million annually
We'd also avoid the black market/ criminality aspect and those genuinely involved in growing could make a livelihood from their knowledge.
Surely it's better to have something taxed and stop the unnecessary aspects of the illicit cannabis trade, such as human trafficking? Well, you'd think so, but, as always, the UK drug laws would still rather make people's lives difficult and encourage organised crime's involvement rather than deal with the situation in a mature and understanding nature. It's absurd.
I would support its legalisation. Taxes could go to the NHS. That would help everyone.

idk if this video is outdated but you have been able to get a medical cannabis prescription in the UK for over a year now. Its also a far cheaper option too as you can get 1gram for as low as £4.
Personally all I've got is anxiety but I've been prescribed 20 grams a month at £6 a gram. Legally i can take it anywhere I want, even on airplanes.
in-fact we actually are a big supplier of medical cannabis for Europe... 9/10 of my prescription tubs comes with a "grown in the UK" label on the side with the 1/9 being from Argentina.
oooold, oooold ass reupload

Gotcha @@JackReacheround
ofc your weed comes from UK... remember Brexit? You got cutoff the european markets!
Your medical prescription includes how much you are allowed to smoke per month and how much it' costs? So the sicker you are the cheaper or the more expensive
one of the few things I like about the US is the big push to legalize weed. I think that's something we are getting right
It's only because of $$$s that it has happened, nothing more, nothing less
You say that, but we are about to loose all of the progress we made.
Depending on how things go in November I might start buying my max allotments every two weeks, even though I barely smoke a gram of oil every week.

Cannabis makes people life's better, medicinal cannabis is a reality.
One gas mask has two cartridges the other has none...
The dude wearing the two filter mask definitely did not have a good face seal, turned his skimask into a filter
Cannabis should never have been prohibited.
It's *not* a simple and cure-all for cancer, though.
A differentiated view would surely help with this topic.🤔
I don't think anyone in the video presented it as a simple cure all for cancer, they presented it as a very good tool with relative safety that can help people with cancer
So I just only in December got my medical card in GA and it’s been a literal miracle. I’ve been on heavy opioids since I was 8 and in a pain clinic since I was 10. My disability causes a lot of chronic pain since I’ve broken a bone over 300 times and had 19 surgeries. So opioids were sadly my only option. But GA just legalized it for medical use. I’m proud to say I’m finally able to eat, sleep, participate in life, work, AND in 6 months I’ll finally be worked down to be off my opioids completely which has always been a goal for me but I honestly thought I wouldn’t be able to for years. I’m 24 been on pain meds since 8 and it’s taken this long for me to get any kind of relief.
Woman across the road from me Had throat cancer in the last stage she was told To go home to die Her daught gave her thc liquid when she want back to hospital they told her it they almost no trace of cancer 4 years later shes still alive
Yeah that's a lie. Weed is great for pain instead of opioid, anxiety and couple other things. It doesn't cure cancer. There's zero peer reviewed studies showing weed curing cancer. Sure there are miracles examples of cancer disappearing for no reason with or without weed but spreading urban myths only damages chances of full legalisation
I like the mask the interviewer puts on having no filter, and bro is using something flamable in a confied space lol 9:26

There is no question of the medicinal benefits. Governments must recognize that fact and de-criminalize it.
actually there is .still there is no medical or scientific concensus on this subject. what there is is agreement on the money that can be made
@@andrewmcewan8081 Maybe not all of medicine agrees, however, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that a citizen with a specific medical condition has the right to use cannabis. My understanding is that case led to cannabis being taken off the "no medical use" list and decriminalized it; it would be unjust to throw a legitimate user of cannabis in jail just because they possess it.
@@k.c.sunshine1934 nonsense if it's illegal in a country then it's just to punish someone for it's use .what you mean is it would be immoral to punish someone who is using it to effectively treat a medical condition. Unless you want to define justice both morally and legally.
@@andrewmcewan8081 laws apply to everyone equally so that unthinking policemen do not get confused.
The old generalization that cannabis has "no medical use" was sufficiently proven to a Supreme court to be false.
End of story. If you have complaint, I suggest that you come to Canada and argue with the court; that is above my pay grade.

You don't need alcohol to de-carb cannabis . Grind it up and put it in centre oven at 225F - no higher , for 25 minutes . Then I put in olive oil heated in a water bath on stove in a measuring cup for 90 minutes . You want the temperature of the water bath to be hot but not boiling . Strain through a coffee filter and voila cannabis infused olive oil . Essentially an edible . 1ml lasts for 4+ hours of medication . I've been treating 3 auto immune diseases and depression with that oil for years . Proportion I use is 7.5 gms bud to 3/4 cup of oil . I get about 40 days of medicine from that 7.5 gm of ganja .

8:37 I’m surprised ppl still doing this the old way and not removing the heat source all together and just using boiling water instead as the heat source it will save lives
Ventilation/fume extraction is important, too.

If they want to make it illegal that’s cool but that “it’s a threat to health” was comical to me I don’t even use it but I’m somewhat educated on the benefits affects etc, yet you can go buy any alcohol and drink as much as you want
it's proven to be damaging to the development of the brain if used at an age before the brain is fully developed ,so around 23-25 . so she wasn't lying
@@andrewmcewan8081 if thats the logic we’re going to run with so many things out there that are just as bad or worse that are bad for physical and mental health
@@spoolyboi9434 I don't disagree , I was just pointing out she wasn't lying
@@andrewmcewan8081 kids shouldn’t be smoking anyway but as long as it’s used for medicinal purposes I don’t see the issue, so many other harmful things in food etc that are a bigger issue that isn’t really addressed the way this is
Smoking Cannabis is of course really unhealthy but Cannabis itself is an AMAZING healing plant! Very healthy if used right! 🤗🌱♥️
Who said it was real unhealthy. No worse then breathing in a burnout or a smoking fire
@@alexnico3028it has more tar than a cigarette
@@alexnico3028 breathing in any smoke is unhealthy.
Why would you not censor the dad or the children to protect them though?
good question. but in 2024 no government or police cares about 2016
3:21 Dude got so serious when he brought up the cops 😆
Love this series
9:30
Why dont he recover his solvent and reuse it?
Simple distillation
Not everyone has specialized glassware laying around to use in their hobby/volunteer projects.
@@a2pabmb2 don't really need glassware.
Only if you do vacuum stuff.
Good old potstill will do you
Air distillery 100 bucks. Reclaim solvent easy as it gets
Weed, Saves Lives.
why'd you put a comma?
@@oJSimpsonReal because, weed saves lives. 😎
@@Chasewimerxoxo "weed saves lives" not "weed, saves lives"
@@oJSimpsonReal no, it’s weed!!!! ,,,, saves lives!!!
@@oJSimpsonReal comma makes it sound dramatic 💪
how many people in the UK use wheelchairs like this?.. This guy has balls of steel to give interviews so openly.
Thanks VICE! My respect to the whole team and those who help move cannaculture to the top.
Good man
Medical Cannabis has been legal in the UK since 2018.
ok but still i cant make it on my own
Only if you’re private and willing to pay for appointments
@@an6el407 so its still illegal to make cannabis oil in home. Those oils from corporations are much weaker and with lower amount of ingriedents
@@boxicoolNOT legally, no.
It's a little uncomfortable how much information their giving on the people in these interviews
There's no real risk of the police coming down on individual clients.
52 Yr old UK man here, almost crying
lol I'm watching this in my cannabis processing lab while my equipment runs in the background.
Ничего себе какая смелость и самоотверженность истории этих людей просто потрясают вы действительно находитесь на переднем крае борьбы за справедливость и здравоохранение спасибо за то что делаете это мир нуждается в таких людях как вы
Its nice to see inteligent conversation from all of the people in this !!
Amazing episode. Please allow this world to heal. This was beyond touching, this is needed EVERYWHERE. Human love. Simply amazing. 😢😮😊
please use less harsher bleeps if you need to. it ruins the watching experience
I love how this guy puts so much passion that u cab hear it every time he curses i feel his pain
the UK has a severe issue with alcoholism with domestic abuse and murder being a result, but weed is for some reason the boogyman
Old but gold. So much love goes out to those beautiful people. Possibly why we have flower as medical now 2024. Wishing them all a healing process ❤
I visited London about a year ago.
After 20-21:00 you can't walk 10 meters without passing someone smoking.
The cannabis and substance content is the only thing I keep watching Vice since there are no more real stories.
10:00 the reporter is using an old fire brigade mask, those have no filters in that mask. Its design to hooked up to a oxygentank :P LOL
Bless that dude on the boat. Clearly has a heart of gold - I take my hat off to your sir and I am sorry for your loss xXx
people like John give me hope for humanity
I wonder how Paul & his children are doing now- hopefully well & thriving
Two years after this, 2018, medical cannabis became available in the UK. It's expensive, but a total lifesaver.
To the chap with the chronic headache. I saw a case where the patient suffered from SEVERE MIGRAINE HEADACHE. He found a cure in self administering psilocybin therapy once a month. Cured himself.
That story sounds like bullshit.
The mushrooms are capable of many things but eliminating a migraine. Phibs
@@alexnico3028psylocibin has been linked with helping with depression due to its stimulating effects on neurogenisis (creating new brain cells and pathways). As a neurobiologist, I do think there could be more benefits, maybe even alleviating certain headache types. Of course with due caution towards anecdotes.
Dudes a little goofball with that boat, I love it, it's too funny.🚢😂
I thank you hidrow for your life service honestly it takes a lot to give to others these days it seems no one cares unless they get something out of it and its sad
Risking your life, freedom, and then to give away the medicine for free. These men truly understand how precious life is. I wish them all the best and freedom!!!
It is legal in the UK for medical use, you just can't get it off the NHS, go private and you'll get it legally providing your condition is approved for it, you just need to have had 2 other medications for your condition prior.
Always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾
yo vice been on point lately. i really hope the UK turns things around for the greater good of all illnesses it can help heal.
