after reading the (did albert einstien smoke weed) thread, i for some reason rememberd the dazed and confuzed thing and it makes sence that george would as hemp was a southern cash crop. whoever agrees post why
i just think he did. plus im bored and about to be stoned so i decided to post somthing
"He grew fields of that shit, man. And behind every great man, there's a woman. Martha Washington, man, every day George would come home and she'd have a big, fat bowl waiting for him man, when he'd come in the door, man. She was a hip, hip, hip lady, man."
Nice slater
hahahha I agree, thomas Jefferson did too
im serious though i really think he did and not just cuz the movie said so
hell bennie frankin was probly toasted too when he flew his kite in a thunderstorm
lol I just fuckin watched dazed and confused man. An dyeah he has a fuckin book on cultivation Im sure ul find it on goole. "he grew like fuckin feilds of it man""And his wife would have a fat bowl waitin for him"
We're gonna need a little more evidence than just the fact that he grew hemp. Tonnes of farmers have grown hemp, and obviously it doesn't get you high. One does not necessitate the other.
Our founding fathers grew fields of hemp for ropes used on big ships. Ben George and Tom used to go over to Ben's house in Philly and they would roll big blunts & get stewie louey and plan how they were gonna take over the world.
Thomas Jefferson's Garden Journal. In it were 3 references to hemp. Two were "plant more" and the third was expressing regret that he wouldn't be home for the hemp harvest. Make of it what you will! - Granny:hippy:
Jefferson would smoke mad bud and then fuck black chicks. Nowadys you would call him a wigger.
Modern industrial hemp doesn't get you high, because it's been specifically bred not to have significant amounts of THC in it. The kind that was grown by Washington and Jefferson back in the 18th century was surely just regular cannabis with regular THC levels in it.Quote:

And of course, farmers didn't just smoke their crops to see what would happen. So chances are they never even knew they were growing a drug.
It wasn't until the early decades of the 20th century that cannabis smoking really became known in the US, being brought here by Mexican immigrant workers.
hey, im pretty sure ben franklin did these are part of the lyrics in aQuote:

well, clinton did...but he didn't inhale.
So did Bush. CNN.com - Author: I should give tapes to Bush - Feb 21, 2005
Quote:
Bush says he "wouldn't answer the marijuana question ... 'cause I don't want some little kid doing what I tried."
"But you gotta understand, I want to be president, I want to lead. I want to set -- Do you want your little kid to say, 'Hey daddy, President Bush tried marijuana, I think I will?' " he said.
Actually in George Washingtons journal, he wrote about how he used to seperate the male hemp plants from the females. George smoked man! Look it up!

I believe he might have if you recall back in school they always told you how he had horrible teeth, but have you everwondered about the pain involved. Plus the first laws ever invoving MJ were it was required to be grown if you were a liciensed farmer.
Yeah, so? Farmers do that with lots of crops, for various reasons. If he was smoking it, wouldn't he have written something about that in his journal somewhere? And wouldn't there be some kind of historical evidence that somebody somewhere in America was smoking cannabis at the time? We have plenty of evidence that people were drinking alcohol and smoking opium and tobacco. They wrote about these drugs, painted pictures about them, and left artifacts for historians to find. But there's just no evidence that colonial Americans had any idea cannabis was a drug.Quote:

Or perhaps he wanted to separate them before the males fertilized the females so he could pick the best males and the best females and breed them together. If he was recording his hemp growing with such detail, don't you think somewhere on one of the pages he would have written something about intending to smoke it? I don't see why he would leave that out. Hemp farmers of the time didn't write anything about growing the best plants to smoke, unlike opium and tobacco farmers who couldn't shut up about it.Quote:

back in the day, they wrote journals instead of going on myspace. they didn't want to let their future employers know they smoked. thats why you don't read about it. duh!
