Morgan Freeman doesn’t understand why cannabis isn’t legal. If you want to know why it is, check this article.
During an interview with the Daily Beast, the actor detailed his support for the movement to legalize weed, reasoning that pot has “many useful uses,” unlike alcohol.
“They used to say, ‘You smoke that stuff, boy, you get hooked!’ ” Freeman said with a laugh. “My first wife got me into it many years ago. How do I take it? However, it comes! I’ll eat it, drink it, smoke it, snort it!”
“I have fibromyalgia pain in this arm, and the only thing that offers any relief is marijuana,” he continued. “They’re talking about kids who have grand mal seizures, and they’ve discovered that marijuana eases that down to where these children can have a life. That right there, to me, says, ‘Legalize it across the board!’ ”
Freeman used the example of the music festival at Woodstock to show that life is easier if marijuana use is acceptable. “Look at Woodstock 1969. They said, ‘We’re not going to bother them or say anything about smoking marijuana,’ and not one problem or fight. Then look at what happened in ’99,” he said, referring to the arrests and unrest at the anniversary concert.

One nation?? I lived in Colorado now I have to move back to Indianapolis. My medical card is useless in anyother state. I think it’s so unfair. Alcohol is still killing people . No deaths from Marijuana. Cigarettes are killing people daily.
“Legalize it across the board!” The words of a wise and honest man.
As the author of the first REAL legalization initiative, I know how to make Cannabis truly legal. I have been working towards that goal for 15 years.
I have witnessed the benefits of Cannabis therapy first hand. I have seen seizure stop and tumors shrink.
Cannabis MUST be as legal as any other food.
Cannabis is nontoxic. Cannabis is food. Cannabis is the single most important medicine of the 21st century.
