I have to say, as a fairly white bread person who never even considered doing marijuana until a few years ago when I got sick, I was really disappointed by the one episode of this show I watched, the one where they were trying to close Fort Collins. I thought that the dispensary owners that they focused on the most typified everything that makes it impossible for medical marijuana users to be taken seriously, guys getting high and riding dirt bikes, etc.

And while I fully realize that 90 percent of people taking legal prescription drugs are just using them for recreational highs, the fact is, medical marijuana is never going to be taken seriously with documentaries like that.
