  1. How do you tell if Hamilton is stoned?

  2. The tinkling bells background music was unnecessary.  They do that in movies to convey the feeling of innocence when children are on screen, and it's stupid.

  3. WhyNot? Jesus was a Jew, a Palestinian.

  4. I was actually kind of liking the guy until he started saying McVey and Nichols weren't responsible for the OKC bombing. It's the same sleaziness you get from the Islamic world about 911.  It was either a set up to tar Muslims or it was a gloriously successful act of jihad.

  5. Mormons aren't allowed to own guns? Most of them in the US probably own guns.

  6. This looks about as glamorous and fun as hoboes huffing paint.

  7. That pot is the same kind of schwag that comes from Mexico. It has loose buds that are full of seeds.

  8. It sounds like that Ayuasca sucked. All he did was get tired and decrepit.

  9. Don toth Looks like Bruce Jenner.

  10. Felix Koschar They laugh at you.  Because why would someone pay more just because it was harvested by naked women?

  11. +mightyqqq   That would turn out well.   Ever read "the Lord of the Flies"?

  12. That's what makes drug dealing stupid. If he were in real estate he would make more money without the prison risk.

  13. It's just like when I was a teen, everybody would say their city had the best pot in the world. It's pretty silly, because it doesn't matter where it's grown, it's still the same.

  14. That's the deal with drug addiction. There are people fighting serious diseases, through no fault of their own. While drug addicts initially cause their own problem.

  15. In June 2020 a group of leftwing rioters set the White House security shed on fire and then set St John's church on fire across the street. These people, Democrats and Vice, defended those rioters.

  16. "I just want to find 11,780 votes." When you have mail in balloting, elections are decided many times by finding uncounted votes. That happened in Minnesota giving a senate race to Al Franken. Trump was thinking quite correctly that there could be votes that were uncounted, especially given the shadiness of some of the vote counting. The leftwing propagandists, establishment neoliberal cultists, always repeat the same fake talking points, over and over. Like "Russia, if you're listening, could you please find Hillary's missing 30,000 emails." They would repeat that, when it was an obvious joke, that Hillary Clinton destroyed 30k subpoenaed emails, that were on an unsecured server.

  17. ***** Pigs are just as smart as dogs.  The difference is that dogs are popular as pets while pigs, goats, sheep and cows are farm animals.   But it's a personal choice what someone wants as a pet.

  18. ***** You can make laws.  But they're not going to in places where there is a tradition.

  19. It's not quite as simple as this guy is making it out to be.  Some of the prisoners haven't been released because they would get executed in their home countries.

  20. You can't take Vice seriously. They gave a sympathetic interview of Micheal Reinoehl, who had just murdered someone in Portland. He stalked and murdered a guy for wearing a hat "Patriot Prayer", conservative Christian club. At the time, he was already wanted for murder. And he died a few days later when he pulled a gun on the feds arresting him.

  21. @Cal No they didn't. Most Southerners are conservatives. National socialism is a socialist and statist political ideology closer to progressivism.

  22. Kyle Winter Other countries have their hate groups. It's worse in Europe, with immigrant hating skinheads with swastika tattoos.

  23. +Michelson Morely (nicholas)   It's illegal isn't it?   What did they expect?

  24. You really notice the horseshoe effect.  These Oath Keepers and Tea partiers say the same things as the Anti-war left, just have a difference in taste and style.   Both are diametrically opposed to the Bush and Obama administrations.

  25. Ed Gloss I don't think so.  I've heard bears will start eating their mauling victim before they're dead.

  26. I doubt hipsters make up a very large portion of the cocaine market.

  27. RussianNoob That's impossible given that using and getting addicted to a drug is due to behavior, rather than a disease cause like cancer or ebola.

  28. The US spends more on healthcare than any other country in the world.  I don't know what that quote is supposed to mean.  Because healthcare and medicine are expensive.  That why any Arab prince or European royalty goes to the US for health care.

  29. A pig is actually equally intelligent as a dog. But some of those dogs look sick and mangy.  In many countries the health department wouldn't allow this.

  30. If we still had the "Fairness Doctrine", Vice would have to do a video on cat meat markets.

  31. Like the coca growing it's bad for the environment--chopping down the jungle to grow plants on a hillside.

  32. I didn't think there was much of a market for magic mushrooms. I did see them in the smart shops, but I didn't think many people sent to smart shops.

  33. I think in parts of China people will eat anything.  Donkey is popular in Beijing.

  34. And you know that seedy hippy 3:18 is bald under the bandana, but he still grows his hair out because he has no fashion sense.

  35. I've heard that heroin withdrawal is basically like having a bad case of the flue for 3 days.   I've never known anyone who couldn't handle that.

  36. The black robes are cool.  But there's nothing about covering the face that is appealing.  In the rest of the world it either means you have a deformity or are about to commit a holdup.

  37. He says legalizing pot would stick it to big business. (although, tobacco and pot are not interchangeable.)  But then he boasts that he's going to get rich from his pot business.

  38. Heges: When you're in combat you suffer trauma and an existential crisis. (Cut to guys playing paintball with plastic airsoft guns)

  39. What kind of a scum bag would slip a brick of hashish in someone's bag just so they would get busted?

  40. Why would anyone want to grow sativa.  Indica is much more potent with much larger buds.

  41. Can't we just call the book what it is--idiot manual.

  42. Marijuana doesn't cure or even treat cancer.  It's given as an analgesic for the nausea and pain that comes with the disease and the treatment. A healthy life-style doesn't cure cancer either.   You're less likely to get it.  But it doesn't prevent it.

  43. It's funny all the foreigners leaving comments that think this actually represents American politics.  One could go to Berkeley and interview some seedy communist group, or some weirdo cult in the desert and portray it as some "revolution", but it's not. Neither the Alex Jones and tea party people on the far right nor Chris Hedges on the far left represent mainstream politics in the US.   Except Ron Paul was a US Representative while socialists like Hedges never go anywhere in US politics, except some city council, where they can sometimes pass job killing minimum wage hikes.

  44. Most societies provide help.  But it's entirely the fault of the addict.  In that respect it's not like someone fighting cancer.

  45. Indoor gardening is so absurd.   Outside you get sunlight, air and water for free.

  46. So basically these guys are like the A-team, only they defend some farmer with junk on his property in violation of building codes.  Do they also shot at the ground a lot.

  47. "Eating dog is abusive." Eating any animal is equally harmful to the animal--it's killed. In all these Vice videos the reporter observes some not unusual subculture somewhere, dog market in China, biker club in Germany, arms market in the UAE, or junkies, while  acting like some hipster doofus thinking "this is so outrageous" the whole time.

  48. During the whole video this guy is like "Isn't it insane that weapons manufacturers, um, sell weapons."

  49. koga924 This is about domestic politics not foreign policy.

  50. That's pretty stupid.  Just about every woman, whose not Asian, gets a fat ass when she's over 30.

  51. It's funny that the basis of Canadian politics has been smugness toward the U.S., that they're pc and care about "social justice".   And now pot is legal in Oregon and Washington.

  52. 73,000 dollars a month?!? Anyone addicted might as well go to a hospital to get detoxed, where the bed will cost about 500 per day.

  53. I don't think there was much point to that.  I suppose facing his anxiety. But it would have been smarter to not use a drug and give a longer better act.

  54. No.  If you take two vicodin you get for spraining your ankle you will not die. Drugs that are as dangerous as you say are administered in a hospital with medical supervision.  There are also black box warnings, where the patient has to sign that they know and accept the risks. Needless to say, if you buy something that's illegal it's at your own risk.

  55. It's kind of ridiculous with the laboratory and clean room.  But they're just growing mushrooms.

  56. @Hung Dang Whoop-dee-do. It takes about a 60 point IQ to grow pot. The chemical content of the buds depends only on the genetics of the plant. Whether it's grown healthy just determines the yield.
    1
  57. @Hung Dang No. My point is that the potentcy just depends on the genetics. When someone tells you (as I've heard a thousand times) "Tennessee (or substitute some other place) has the best pot, you wouldn't believe it." It's adolescent bragging, because you could take the same seeds and grow them anywhere and get the same buds.
    1
  58.  @ramonw9430  You can get the seeds many places where it's tolerated. It doesn't matter where you grow it. It's not a difficult plant to grow.
    1
  59.  @ramonw9430  Using the right techniques just effects the yield. The potency is just the genetics of the strain. It's not hard to grow because the hemp plant is just a weed. It's hard to germinate a sequoia seed or an orchid. But I found hemp growing in a vacant lot in Beijing. I saw the leaves poking through a fence. I thought: that looks like marijuana. I went through a hole in the fence. I found, that it was.

  60. Most of these people are probably just larpers, desperate for attention. Wearing communist iconography wont get you any attention.

  61.  @johnstevenson1709  There have been anti-semitic attacks in Europe, particularly in France. But they're not from these kind of people. It's from another ethnic minority, with a serious problem with Jews. Similarly, in NYC orthodox Jews get attacked, but it's from people like Farrakhan acolytes, not skinheads.

  62. LOL Biden doesn't even know where he is most of the time. He's sail his son died in Iraq two times recently. He died in a Maryland hospital.

  63. You can't mandate "unbiased truthful reporting." from the government. The government is run by liars. And the DHS did contact twitter and facebook to request that they suppress stories such as Hunter Biden's laptop, to influence that last election. If you had government regulated news, it would be less truthful, not more.
    1
  64.  Robert C. Christian  That's not true. The corporate media has even admitted that the laptop being "Russian disinformation" was a lie. The social media companies, on request from the US government, repeated the lie that the laptop was Russian disinformation. The FBI isn't the arbiter on what is political relevant. The FBI is full of political activists. It's such a joke that you guys are disingenuously expressing concern for "muh democracy is at risk", while defending federal government agencies meddling in election.
    1
  65.  Robert C. Christian  "There's nothing incriminating on the laptop." LOL A video of Hunter Biden weighing out 30 grams of crack. Emails of Hunter calling Joe Biden "Pedo Pete". Statements that Hunter transferred portions of payments he received from Ukraine and China to Joe Biden, while he was VP. Hunter with likely underage prostitutes. It's creepy that Vice thinks it's edgy, but then carries water for the FBI. Get a grip. The FBI shouldn't be involved in influencing elections.
    1
  66.  Robert C. Christian  It's not true that Hunter's laptop is "Russian disinformation". The NY Times, Washington Post, etc. even admitted that. That was a lie, by the FBI which coerced social media to censor reports of it.

  67.  @26michaeluk  They could have chosen hot to use Heroin. It's not the same thing. A person who dies of cancer has no personal agency involved. There is nothing Steven Hawking could have done to avoid ALS. A Heroin addict could have avoided narcotics.

  68. Do they even realize the irony of repeating FBI and corporate media propaganda. They're like "We're edgy. Muh insurrection, and Hunter laptop is Russian propaganda."

  69. It's not happening in America. There were 1000 far left riots in America last year. There was 1 (arguable) rightwing riot.

  70. That wasn't liquid lsd. You could see him taking two tablets. This is pretty silly. It's like doing a video about going to a movie on drugs. So what?

  71. They would have Uday Hussein and more wars. There was an ongoing war between the Kurds and Sadam's regime.
