bjornpdx Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Reefer Fiction I haven't been around here much lately because I just can't seem to complete anything musical. This song wasn't going anywhere either so I put it in the 1938 public domain movie Reefer Madness. So this is my short take on Reefer Madness. Hard to believe how wrong they were about the effects of marijuana but perhaps they were being deliberately wrong. We now have legal marijuana shops, but for most of the 20th century marijuana possession could send you to jail for a long time. Hard to believe how things have changed. Thanks for watching/commenting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark skinner Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 God , I hope our Alabama governor doesn't see this. She'll never sign the new medical marijuana bill. Great one .. mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornpdx Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 Makke - thanks for watching and commenting Nigel - I remember seeing "educational" movies like this where they'd warn you that smoking that stuff could kill you. David - I think the movie is still playing at theaters that specialize in cult favorites Mark - good luck with your governor. Seems odd that some states like mine (Oregon) has recreational cannabis shops everywhere but it's illegal in adjacent states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Kirby Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I've never watched this before - that was interesting. I always wondered why Marijuana was vilified back then - I don't know the history. But then again, there was Prohibition as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
