He just runs around being stoned as fuck, spouting stupid bullshit and looking like a dumbass. You can watch some of the videos of him "debating" with government officials from both Canada and the states on Youtube, he just yells "BULLSHIT" "LIES" and dumb shit like that over and over again like a fucking 5 year old. No one takes him seriously but stoned teenagers, and that's cause he runs a vapor lounge.

Watch pot tv and tell me he is the prince of pot, this guy is a joke. He should get back to openly breaking the law and calling it a revolution.

BTW he has compared himself to Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. on the "pot scene", Jesus he makes me angry.

You can come down to Vancouver and talk to him in person, he is a bumbling idiot.
OK this post is wrong in so many ways.

He has set the process back years?
WTF???? to what period in time?
Marc Emery has spent over ten years promoting Cannabis politically and spent millions of dollars worldwide supporting marijuana initiaves in from Isreal to Alaska. If it weren't for Marc's loud voice challenging the government and media alot of people would be just sitting quietly in the background. are you saying that we were better off 10 years ago?

He runs around stoned as fuck spouting stupid bullshit?
Have you actually ever listend to him speak?

He runs around yelling BULLSHIT, LIES
Do you disagree? Show me one clip on youtube where he doesn't have an inteligable debate or speach that is not backed by FACT and TRUTH

"No one takes him seriously but stoned teenagers"
how about the medical marijuana community don't think they appreciate what he is doing? How about the DEA you don't think they take him seriously?

He has compared himself to Malcom X and Martin Luther King on the pot scene
Hmmm, lets see... a non-violent individual in the struggle for civil rights and independance willing to sacrifice himself for a just cause during wartime against an oppresive political shitstem. He is what you call a shit disturber, have you ever heard of the term rabble rousing?


The fact is that no one else has the balls to do what Marc Emery is doing for the cannabis culture as a whole. Openly admitting war on US policies and daring the DEA to do something about it. Willing to go to jail for the dying, the sick, and for people who just like to smoke. All the while "stoned as fuck" wouldn't you be?

Dude no offence but you sound like you are very misinformed about this whole subject, totally missing the point of what he has acomplished. Has he made some mistakes along the way? Yes, everyone is human, but it is very easy to take things out of context, and people who oppose and disagree are very quick to jump all over him and divert from the real issues. He has no hidden agendas, and he does a tremendous amount of work for the cannabis community, and I applaud him for that.

....and his wife is hot.
