Great Lakes Medicinal Herb Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Remember, over 50% of Natgeo is owned by Fox.... So, with that knowledge, I understand why there is so much misinformation and bias there is so far in this show. I am disappointed in NatGeo for this show. As a channel which many people look to for accurate information, it is a shame that this is what they are showing. IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knottwhole Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 What a piece of drug warrior propaganda. They just said addiction. For every good point in the show, there has been at least one made up reefer madness quote. Pure junk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knottwhole Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) Now they just said that up to 9% who try it once may form a dependency. :growl: :growl: :growl: :growl: Edited January 17, 2011 by knottwhole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thequietone Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I just tried to watch it and made it as far as the reefer madness part. And the propaganda machine rolls on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solabeirtan Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) This show Only served to Destroy NatGeos' Credability . Shame on them . I guess it also serves to show , That there just arent any unbiased opinions to be had in Unfortunatley Scommercial Amercia. Just another [bAD] Cartoon Show .

Dan1984 Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I thought this show was gonna depict marijuana in a positive light, or at least not so biased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imiubu Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I watched the 'Cocaine' part of this and by the sounds of it would have only been angered if I'd seen the Marijuana portion. The only thing in the Cocaine portion that I know to be true is the 'instant addiction' to the rock. I've seen that w/ my own eyes and witnessed helplessly as my good friends lost all to this drug. Luckily to come out on the other side to rebuild their lives. Cocaine is the SOUL ROBBER. CANNABIS CURES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1TokeOverLine Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 That's a stretch too, our college poker parties had coke flowing, I did a few lines occasionally and just didn't like it. That was in the 70's and addiction was never considered after a few crazy nights of lost in the woods. 1T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried both and didn't like either of them thank what powers that be. Although, I did personally witness those who were 'hooked' after their 1st. try smoking crack.

impatient Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I found clips of this show on YouTube. The individual clips are listed on a "channel page" at: http://www.youtube.com/user/DrBigBudz Overall, I give this NatGeo presentation a big "thumbs down". There are also clips on that channel for "Marijuana USA" which IMHO is much better. Good or bad, it's important to watch and be aware of what mainstream media is presenting to the public.
