marijuana is an obsolete slang term popularized by fear mongering racists to push a certain economic agenda.
the scientific term is cannabis; colloquially hemp. And we're asking for re-legalization, thanks.

- bhdz 16y agoYou're probably downvoted because of "fear mongering racists" & "economic agenda." Now you're left with the "scientific term" for marijuana which is fine but off-topic (which is Prop 19, Reddit & CN). Ytiquette is not written anywhere here, but I suppose it follows Reddiquette guidelines to some extend. PS: your link (http://www.jackherer.com/chapter04.html http://www.jackherer.com/chapter04.html) looks like it comes from dubious, tinfoilhat-like source.
