Cannabis and Cannibalism: The Return Of Reefer Madness In The Media? (w/video)

I’ve heard  smoking pot blamed for some of the most ridiculous things in the world over the last 70 years but I’ve  got to admit this one takes the cake.  Of course I’m not saying that some of the good people who played cannibalistic zombies in the hit TV series “The Living Dead” hadn’t smoked a bowl or two before the shoot. . . but pot causing the recent “cannibal” attacks would be funny as hell if I wasn’t so tired of the misinformation about one of the most useable plants on our green earth.  lets FACE it, That’s carryin “making a munchies run ” just a bit far.

If you’ve never watched ‘Reefer Madness” I’ve included the full movie below.for your amusement. . . EDITOR
