Can anyone think of anyone more appropriate to celebrate Denver’s first legal 4/20 celebration than Snoop Lion? Yeah, me either. The ganja master hosted an event at the Fillmore Auditorium on Frida, April 19th, where he screened his documentary “Reincarnated” and had a question and answer session. Afterward, he won the High Times Lifetime Achievement Award, and counted down to 4/20 at midnight. He DJ-ed and blazed with the crowd. Check out pics of this epic night in the gallery.
Guess Which Country Smokes The Most Weed?!?
Naturally as 4/20 approaches, a number of studies have surfaced regarding popularity, medicinal uses and new strains of marijuana. Now UNICEF has released rankings for countries who smoke the most weed. Check who made the top of the list after the jump.
(Video) Survey Says: Majority of Americans Support Legalizing Marijuana
A new survey from the Pew Research Center shows that a majority of Americans would support legalizing marijuana. More than half of Americans have tried marijuana at one point or another, and generally speaking the War on Drugs is considered an expensive failure. In addition to that, Americans spend more per person on incarceration of small-time crimes such as possession than any other developed country. Let’s legalize it and use the funds for something productive. Check out the video after the jump.
More Older Americans Are Using Marijuana?!?
Surprise, surprise; instead of the usual bingo and bridge older people are turning to doobies for their recreational activities. The Baby Boomers that are now retiring have started to use marijuana as they get older and have smoke sessions because why wouldn’t they? The decriminalization in California, Washington and Colorado have changed the way we think about how it’s used. A 65-year old retired teacher said, “It’s nice. “It’s just a social thing. It’s like when people get together, and they crack open their beers.” Now let’s just get Washington to agree and we’ll be spending less money on unnecessarily arresting citizens.

(Video) LOL!! Marijuana Hating Politician Busted With Marijuana!!!
Hypocrisy never fails with these politicians! Steve Katz, an Assemblyman representing Westchester County in New York, was pulled over at a stoplight in Albany and was caught with marijuana in his car. He voted against legalizing weed in New York in 2011 and also put out a statement a few days ago promoting the “struggle against illegal drug culture and the abuse of narcotics” because he’s on the Assembly’s Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Committee! He probably shouldn’t be in charge of making decisions regarding marijuana…He even got burned by Brooklyn State Senator Marty Golden, who said “Be true to yourself. If you like marijuana and smoke marijuana, at least vote for it.” Check out a video of Steve Katz after the jump.
