00:02:45 #1 Those are things for you to decide.
00:02:49 #2 Many people have already decided for themselves and you, whether grass is good or bad.
00:02:55 #3 What's most important is what you think.
00:03:01 #4 So without any preaching from this film, let's examine the facts and only the facts.
00:03:08 #5 There are too many false impressions and prejudices to do it any other way.
00:03:14 #6 Okay then why is an alcohol made illegal? It's a lot worse than grass.
00:03:18 #7 I take juice freaks, man. They get hangover and cirrhosis to the liver.
00:03:21 #8 Besides, breast is inhabited for like alcohol.
00:03:24 #9 Right. The facts are, if you drink enough, alcohol will give you hangovers, cirrhosis of the liver,
00:03:35 #10 and what's more, it can even kill you.
00:03:39 #11 If you are a certain emotional and psychological type, you may become dependent both physically and emotionally
00:03:48 #12 and will join the five to six million known alcoholics in the United States.
00:03:53 #13 Now, what are the facts about marijuana?
00:03:58 #14 What do doctors and psychiatrists have to say about which is worse for you physically and emotionally?
00:04:03 #15 Alcohol or marijuana? The facts are,
00:04:06 #16 at this time there are no known damaging physical effects from the use of marijuana.
00:04:12 #17 But, unlike alcohol,
00:04:16 #18 When you take too much at one time, you don't pass out.
00:04:22 #19 You more than likely run the risk of an unpredictable and unpleasant bummer.
00:04:27 #20 The occasional drink before dinner by adults like the occasional use of marijuana
00:04:57 #21 does not necessarily lead to an emotional dependency in the stable, mature personality.
00:05:04 #22 Go ahead.
00:05:05 #23 Great all of you.
00:05:07 #24 You like that.
00:05:08 #25 I like it.
00:05:09 #26 Good all of you.
00:05:10 #27 Well, that's smart.
00:05:11 #28 However, teenage is not a time of great maturity and stability for most teenagers.
00:05:22 #29 The pressures of school, parents, finding your own identity and self-confidence, sets you
00:05:34 #30 You operate drug dependency that could just as well be alcohol if you prefer that to grass.
00:05:50 #31 Some adults are not mature or strong enough to stand the pressures of their daily lives.
00:06:03 #32 These adults can become just as emotionally dependent on marijuana as on alcohol, whichever
00:06:10 #33 is more socially acceptable and easier to get.
00:06:17 #34 when the alcoholic is physically withdrawn from his body's need for alcohol.
00:06:23 #35 He always goes back to it until he learns how to handle his problems.
00:06:29 #36 Just as the alcohol drinker who finds himself needing a drink more and more frequently
00:06:42 #37 is the warning sign of his dependency, so it is with the pothead.
00:06:47 #38 The more he needs the escape from reality or the pleasure of marijuana,
00:06:53 #39 The more he is becoming emotionally dependent exactly as the square and unhipped alcoholic
00:07:00 #40 adult does.
00:07:04 #41 Do two wrongs ever make one right?
00:07:07 #42 I think we're so much worse than pot.
00:07:11 #43 Don't worry, I got a cat bite man.
00:07:14 #44 That's right.
00:07:15 #45 It's a fact.
00:07:16 #46 No one ever got cancer from pot.
00:07:19 #47 But it's also a fact that no one ever dropped out of school because they were hung up
00:07:23 #48 on tobacco.
00:07:27 #49 No one who just finished smoking a cigarette ever forgot she was driving a car as she tripped
00:07:33 #50 out on the beauty of a back road nature trip.
00:07:55 #51 And no cigarette pusher ever tried to turn you on to hard drugs or the needle.
00:08:05 #52 Another basic difference is that you can smoke cigarettes and do other things.
00:08:12 #53 You wouldn't dare to do this, unpot, or this, or this.
00:08:25 #54 And would you rather your pilot had just finished a joint, not a cigarette, or your surgeon
00:08:35 #55 operating on your heart, your attorney, pleading your case, your sergeant, your dentist, your
00:08:48 #56 flight leader, your team center, your LSO, your school bus driver, your country's
00:09:05 #57 astronauts, or even the guy who is just changing your front tire. Would you rather
00:09:15 #58 he was smoking a cigarette or a joint? However, neither your government nor any
00:09:22 #59 Any responsible person recommends smoking.
00:09:26 #60 So, two or three wrongs don't make one right either.
00:09:32 #61 If you can blow as much as you want.
00:09:42 #62 Blow as much grass as you like and your body won't need it.
00:09:46 #63 Right.
00:09:47 #64 You can quit anytime you like.
00:09:49 #65 Not true for everybody.
00:09:52 #66 And that's the problem.
00:09:56 #67 The World Health Organization of the United Nations with its leading medical and psychiatric
00:10:01 #68 experts from over 100 member nations has this to say about marijuana being habit forming
00:10:08 #69 without one descending vote.
00:10:29 #70 That may be true for the great majority of smoke pot, but it's not true for the many
00:10:34 #71 thousands who have gone on to acid and vitamins, barbiturates and end up on heroin.
00:10:46 #72 However, it is not a fact that practically everyone on grass turns into a
00:10:53 #73 flaky drug addict. That's just not true. Every informed person knows this. What is
00:11:00 #74 true may be discovered in this narcotics rehabilitation center in some of the
00:11:05 #75 group therapy sessions where we will learn what former drug addicts have to say
00:11:09 #76 about marijuana turning them onto hard drugs.
00:11:12 #77 How many of you started on pop before you started heroin?
00:11:16 #78 I did. I did too. I did.
00:11:19 #79 I did. So did I. I did. I did.
00:11:23 #80 I did. I did. I did.
00:11:26 #81 That means all of you used marijuana then?
00:11:29 #82 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:11:31 #83 I was 11 when I first started.
00:11:33 #84 I think it's kind of hard to deal marijuana because it's so bulky, you know, and you have
00:11:41 #85 to go through the trouble of chopping it up and cleaning it. I think it's much easier to deal heroin, you know, in marijuana.
00:11:49 #86 Really? Because, you know, all that bulk and everything, it's much easier just to have a small bag of balloon that you can carry
00:11:57 #87 and you can cut that up and get a lot more money for it.
00:11:59 #88 money for it. You know, in all the trouble you have to go through with it, you know, like
00:12:03 #89 cutting it up, especially if you get a chemo, you know, you have to cut it up, then you have
00:12:07 #90 to clean it, you know, and then you have to roll it and box it, you know, can it, you
00:12:13 #91 know, it's just a big, really big hassle behind it, you know. That's why I think the dealers
00:12:17 #92 go on to dealing heroin and then get us to buying heroin. I think if you smoke
00:12:22 #93 marijuana or take pills or get loaded in any way at all that you will be accepted
00:12:27 #94 of the dope oil and eventually you will have contact with this environment.
00:12:30 #95 I definitely think that if you get loyal to marijuana you are subjected to the environment
00:12:36 #96 and it does become readily available to you.
00:12:39 #97 That's the way it is man, you know when you're around a crowd and you're all smoking weed
00:12:43 #98 and then they start using some other drug and you go right ahead along with them and
00:12:49 #99 you end up using it and get higher and then the weed isn't good enough anymore and
00:12:54 #100 then you turn on the heroin too.
00:12:56 #101 Most of you started smoking marijuana when you were introduced to narcotics?
00:13:01 #102 I did. I started smoking really good.
00:13:03 #103 I did, uh, I'll be careful.
00:13:05 #104 For me it was, but, uh, I wanted a different high, you know, and weed wasn't, uh, it wasn't good enough
00:13:11 #105 and I heard that heroin and stimulant crystals were a better high, and that's why I went to them, you know.
00:13:19 #106 Yeah, I'm gonna say more. I guess, uh, a lot of people started that way.
00:13:24 #107 Speaking to myself, I did it.
00:13:26 #108 I started on weed and I got burned out.
00:13:30 #109 And I needed something stronger, so I went to heroin.
00:13:34 #110 Well, I started smoking weed, you know,
00:13:36 #111 because I was running away from something,
00:13:38 #112 you know, something which was myself.
00:13:40 #113 And out of all that, I've run through a lot of highs
00:13:42 #114 trying to run away from myself.
00:13:44 #115 Heroin and LSD and have the dream.
00:13:46 #116 I like marijuana. I just couldn't handle it myself.
00:13:49 #117 I was looking for something else.
00:13:51 #118 I myself think really the real reason I started smoking marijuana man because
00:13:59 #119 Usually I was one of the younger dudes from the neighborhood. I wanted to be accepted. I was weak scared
00:14:07 #120 and
00:14:08 #121 From this it led to heroin and it just been an endless
00:14:13 #122 Time going to jail back and forth man. I don't like it and I hope nobody else would use this
00:14:20 #123 not because of the fact that it's bad itself, but what it needs to man,
00:14:25 #124 is the way I feel. Well I can only speak for myself, but I imagine some of the other
00:14:31 #125 dudes in here feel the same way I do about it. That some people are addicted
00:14:36 #126 prone to it. I mean like myself, I can't handle it because I mean this is just
00:14:42 #127 the way I am. I use it for an escape. I did it before I came in here. I hope
00:14:48 #128 when I go out that I've changed and which I feel that I have, but I'm a small minority
00:14:54 #129 of people that we can't handle anything.
00:14:58 #130 Like my alcohol, I can't handle that.
00:15:00 #131 I couldn't handle heroin.
00:15:01 #132 I mean weed because I needed something stronger to escape or anything else like that.
00:15:07 #133 And there's more people like me that I feel, you know.
00:15:11 #134 And I'm adding some of the other dudes in here could go along with me.
00:15:16 #135 You couldn't have liquor either. No.
00:15:17 #136 Yeah, it's a personality thing where
00:15:20 #137 they're sure there's a lot of people that can go out there.
00:15:23 #138 These are the files of the Research and Statistics Office
00:15:26 #139 of this Narcotics Rehabilitation Center.
00:15:30 #140 It's like out of 100 drawers, 95 of them
00:15:34 #141 are filled with file folders of people
00:15:36 #142 who have started on marijuana.
00:15:39 #143 The rest started on glue, pills, alcohol,
00:15:43 #144 and a few on heroin itself.
00:15:49 #145 A more accurate percentage is 78% of the inmates started on marijuana.
00:15:55 #146 However, what the computer doesn't say is...
00:15:59 #147 There's certain kind of people that'll avoid taking care of business
00:16:02 #148 and will turn to grass when they get hung up
00:16:04 #149 and forget about everything else they're supposed to do when they're behind grass.
00:16:09 #150 Marijuana doesn't...
00:16:12 #151 not addictive, but by using it, you don't do the things
00:16:21 #152 that you should do, for instance, like in school.
00:16:24 #153 You try to do the things that you have to do in school,
00:16:29 #154 but your mind is not all there, you understand?
00:16:35 #155 Nobody can tell me what to do with my own body,
00:16:37 #156 what I can eat, drink or smoke.
00:16:39 #157 This is a free country and nobody has the right
00:16:41 #158 to take away my constitutional rights.
00:16:43 #159 That could be a fact if you were the only one affected
00:16:47 #160 by what you do.
00:16:48 #161 But the Constitution and the laws that came out of it were designed to protect the individual
00:16:55 #162 and the group from irresponsible individuals, which is why there are speeding laws,
00:17:02 #163 building safety laws, pure food laws, pure drug laws, laws to protect your money,
00:17:15 #164 Laws to protect children, laws to protect the agent, and even a law to protect you from taking your own life.
00:17:28 #165 After law, all of them hopefully designed by a democratic government to protect both the individual and the group.
00:18:22 #166 From aspirin to the latest vaccines, the manufacture and control of all drugs is government supervising.
00:18:33 #167 Would you really want it any other way, like without government supervision?
00:18:44 #168 As a drug, marijuana comes under the supervision of the federal and state governments.
00:18:56 #169 It is the assigned work of the police to enforce the law.
00:19:01 #170 It is not something they dreamed up on their own.
00:19:04 #171 From the Ten Commandments to the Constitution,
00:19:09 #172 man has made laws to protect him from hurting himself
00:19:13 #173 in the common interest of the group called society.
00:19:18 #174 Doctors, psychiatrists, social scientists, chemists, biochemists.
00:19:33 #175 Basically people who are not primarily concerned with the ethics or morality of
00:19:38 #176 the use of marijuana have provided their expert knowledge to our legislators.
00:19:43 #177 Which in turn has caused them to pass laws to make marijuana illegal. Not as a
00:19:50 #178 matter of morality but as a matter of health, mental health, period.
00:19:56 #179 There's no question about it. Many young people agree with that.
00:20:18 #180 Let's examine the facts. First, marijuana is not legal all over the world.
00:20:25 #181 It isn't legal in Mexico, Egypt, India, Great Britain, China, Japan, or any of the major nations in the civilized world.
00:20:39 #182 Nigeria is one of the latest countries to make marijuana illegal. Here, the pusher is given the death penalty.
00:20:47 #183 Though each year more and more teenagers commit crimes while up on grass, this is not the major problem.
00:21:01 #184 However,
00:21:02 #185 grass as a factor in crime must not be overlooked,
00:21:06 #186 especially in that percentage of unstable and aggressive types, and those who wind up in trouble with the law
00:21:13 #187 because of something done while they are high on pot.
00:21:17 #188 Too many average and decent teenagers smoke pot without committing crimes,
00:22:10 #189 except for the illegality of the sale, possession, or the use of it.
00:22:15 #190 So, why not make it legal?
00:22:18 #191 Why not bring it out in the open and make it legal in America?
00:22:22 #192 It's just that there are too many unstable people in America
00:22:27 #193 who would become emotionally dependent on marijuana
00:22:31 #194 and end up as non-functioning weedheads.
00:22:34 #195 Easy availability and the implied approval of society
00:22:45 #196 Will, in the opinion of many medical authorities,
00:22:48 #197 created drug dependency problem far more serious
00:22:53 #198 than that of the five to six million alcoholics today.
00:22:57 #199 If the acknowledged effect of marijuana
00:23:00 #200 is much greater than alcohol, it becomes easy to see
00:23:04 #201 why the emotionally unstable and immature may turn to marijuana
00:23:08 #202 in even greater numbers than to alcohol
00:23:12 #203 eventually go to more dangerous drugs in the form of LSD, pills, and heroin.
00:23:19 #204 Who, me? Who me? Who me? It's possible. And that's the problem. You can never tell
00:23:28 #205 who is so stable and so emotionally secure that they will not become dependent
00:23:34 #206 on marijuana or other drugs, for pleasure and full-time escape. Nothing, baby. Nothing.
00:23:48 #207 Years ago, only the criminal and socially deprived bluegrass are used heroin.
00:24:20 #208 Today, the nicest people may be on grass. Why is that a fact?
00:24:28 #209 I took it on a dare.
00:24:30 #210 But only kids take dares.
00:24:32 #211 And everybody blows pot.
00:24:49 #212 But everybody does.
00:24:51 #213 I don't want it, man. I don't want it.
00:24:53 #214 Take it, take it. No, I don't want it. I don't want it.
00:25:01 #215 No. Take it. Drag it.
00:25:04 #216 Take a drag. One hurt you. Come on.
00:25:06 #217 The first sign of character and emotional weakness is when you do things just because others are doing them.
00:25:14 #218 I'm high and it enhances my creativity.
00:25:18 #219 This is the same subject matter and painter for both paintings.
00:25:23 #220 One was painted before going up on weed and the other while high on weed.
00:25:29 #221 Can you see any significant creative difference?
00:25:32 #222 I'm high and it enhances my creativity.
00:25:35 #223 The artist thinks he's being more creative, but do you see it in his work?
00:25:40 #224 To some extent, the very inhibited person may feel a greater freedom to be creative,
00:25:47 #225 but this doesn't mean he will have the necessary talent to be so.
00:25:51 #226 It really makes me understand myself.
00:25:54 #227 If you don't understand yourself when you're down,
00:25:57 #228 then there's no logical or scientifically accepted reason that you will when you're high.
00:26:03 #229 Besides, while you're up on grass, you may tell yourself only what you want to know.
00:26:08 #230 If you are lucky enough not to be on a bad trip and discover a frightening thing about yourself at that time.
00:26:15 #231 Let's face it.
00:26:16 #232 Let's face it, the reasons we've heard for blowing grass up to now are like an iceberg.
00:26:41 #233 What about the underlying reasons that are like the 90% of the iceberg you never see?
00:26:47 #234 The reasons below the surface that makes teenagers get so hung up on marijuana
00:26:53 #235 in spite of what their parents say and in spite of the big risk of being busted.
00:26:58 #236 World thinks adults keep making wars.
00:27:03 #237 Next world will probably kill everybody on earth, including me.
00:27:06 #238 Parents are hypocrites. They tell us one thing, but then they do another.
00:27:10 #239 Why don't they practice what they preach?
00:27:12 #240 Why are adults so hung up with making money? That's all they think about.
00:27:17 #241 Schools are real bummer.
00:27:18 #242 Adult teachers, adult subjects, I just can't wait to get out.
00:27:22 #243 Why can't we dress the way we want in school?
00:27:25 #244 Sure, you're old enough to be drafted, but we're not old enough to vote.
00:27:29 #245 Why are they always treating us like children?
00:27:32 #246 Adults never have time to listen to us.
00:27:35 #247 And when they do, they just don't see what we're saying.
00:27:37 #248 If adults like to make worth the much,
00:27:39 #249 why don't they go and fight in them?
00:27:41 #250 I'm better educated than either of my parents.
00:27:44 #251 But they don't listen to me.
00:27:45 #252 How can I plan for the future with the draft waiting for me?
00:27:48 #253 Why don't you come back some other time?
00:27:51 #254 Everything is all right with us.
00:27:53 #255 And in the meantime, I'll do what I want to do here,
00:27:56 #256 and you do what you want to do where you live, do you?
00:27:59 #257 Why shouldn't I smoke grass?
00:28:02 #258 Why shouldn't I live now and have all the fun I can?
00:28:05 #259 If I don't get killed in the war or by the big bomb,
00:28:08 #260 all I can look forward to is making money like my father.
00:28:11 #261 And I know he isn't happy.
00:28:13 #262 You know, sometimes I think it's like a war. Everyone over 30 is panning.
00:28:17 #263 Over 30? Over 25?
00:28:21 #264 Obviously, these are things that bug a lot of the young people.
00:28:27 #265 But this time rather than hear from the establishment who run newspapers, radio, television, book and magazine publishing companies, political parties and schools, let's hear from those other teenagers.
00:28:42 #266 Or aren't smoking pot.
00:28:44 #267 Not all teenagers are on drugs. I'm not and my close friends aren't.
00:28:49 #268 Every time someone wants to turn me on to pot they tell me I'll discover myself. Well I don't need that kind of crutch.
00:28:55 #269 Besides, I've never seen any potheads come up with any kinds of answers that help them
00:28:59 #270 cope with the kind of problems they have, or I have.
00:29:03 #271 I think the teenagers of today are very idealistic, but we don't have definite ways of showing
00:29:09 #272 it.
00:29:10 #273 We're not old enough to vote, and older people are always telling us what to do.
00:29:14 #274 We can't blame us too much for fighting back.
00:29:17 #275 But I don't think taking drugs is fighting back.
00:29:21 #276 The most you can say for it is that this is a sign of rebellion.
00:29:25 #277 But what we rebel about isn't changed one bit by getting high on marijuana.
00:29:30 #278 Because when you come back down nothing's changed.
00:29:33 #279 I think that parents have done the best they can.
00:29:36 #280 You can't expect them to know all the answers.
00:29:38 #281 Lots of us have had a better education than they have,
00:29:41 #282 but that doesn't prevent us from profiting from their experience.
00:29:45 #283 I think you've got to be real immature to get hung up on pot.
00:29:48 #284 Mature people try to find solutions for their problems instead of trying to find new experiences.
00:29:53 #285 I say that teenagers are time to put up or shut up. Not to gripe and go on a trip inside yourself,
00:29:58 #286 but to have guts like our parents have to have, to go out every day and deal with the things in the outside world that bug them too.
00:30:06 #287 E-mike. E-mike.
00:30:09 #288 I know my parents are too hung up on making money and putting on a show for the neighbors,
00:30:13 #289 But that doesn't mean I have to put down money completely.
00:30:16 #290 Because maybe now I don't need much.
00:30:18 #291 But when I get married, I'm going to have to have money for my family too.
00:30:21 #292 I just don't have to be as materialistic about it. That's all.
00:30:24 #293 The world is changing, and some things are still too hard for our parents to understand.
00:30:29 #294 But blowing grass, and that's really a cop out.
00:30:32 #295 And it won't help our parents understand the darn thing.
00:30:35 #296 School is like everything else. You only get out of it what you put into it.
00:30:39 #297 It's not a party.
00:30:40 #298 The way I look at it, I'm here to learn.
00:30:43 #299 Even if some of the subjects or the teachers aren't the greatest,
00:30:46 #300 I've got to make the best of it.
00:30:48 #301 I'm here for an education, and everything extra is just gravy.
00:30:51 #302 There really is a communication gap, but I think that if I have a better education
00:30:55 #303 and a better life than my parents, I should make the first move
00:30:58 #304 to make that gap to come smaller and smaller.
00:31:00 #305 From what I breath and from what I've heard, there are millions of adults,
00:31:05 #306 over 30, who don't like the establishment
00:31:08 #307 like the establishment are going to war any more than we do.
00:31:12 #308 I honestly believe that adults are disappointed in us,
00:31:15 #309 because it's always been expected of young people
00:31:19 #310 to try to change things, to make things better,
00:31:22 #311 or at least prepare to change things if we don't like them.
00:31:26 #312 Not to cop out on life to grass or other drugs.
00:31:29 #313 No, not for me.
00:31:30 #314 I'm more interested in dropping into the world
00:31:32 #315 I live in than turning on, tuning in and dropping out.
00:31:36 #316 I don't like to criticize anybody,
00:31:39 #317 but I think that too many teenagers
00:31:41 #318 don't have too much purpose.
00:31:43 #319 It's like they don't have any goals.
00:31:45 #320 I don't mean that they should just be planning
00:31:47 #321 to make money and all that,
00:31:48 #322 but I think that trying to find something
00:31:51 #323 you'll enjoy doing for the rest of your life
00:31:54 #324 is the least you can do now,
00:31:56 #325 because everybody has to work,
00:31:58 #326 even grow before they get married,
00:32:00 #327 and even after they do.
00:32:02 #328 I think too many teenagers
00:32:03 #329 traded in their idealism for a stick of weed.
00:32:06 #330 When I see some teenagers acting superior to those of us who don't need drugs to feel good or understand ourselves, I get real bugged.
00:32:13 #331 Well now, you've heard from both sides of the question.
00:32:20 #332 But what you do with your life is up to you.
00:32:25 #333 If you become a pothead, you risk blowing the most important time of your life, your teenage.
00:32:32 #334 that unrepeatable time for you to grow up and to prepare for being an adult that can handle problems
00:32:39 #335 and make something meaningful out of life. Or you have the choice to have the courage to see and
00:32:46 #336 deal with the world for what it really is, far, far from perfect, but for you and for me, the only
00:32:55 #337 one there is. While it's true that some of you will actually go to the moon and perhaps other
00:33:01 #338 planets. It's also true that in a few short years this world will be your
00:33:07 #339 establishment and you will be the establishment and what you do or don't do
00:33:13 #340 about it will be your scene. You're the generation with the brain power and the
00:33:18 #341 opportunity to do more for the human needs of this world than any other
00:33:23 #342 generation in history. Let's hope that your teenage children don't have too
00:33:29 #343 much criticism about what you did or didn't do because you were on pot.
