"I have a different outlook on marijuana than America does. I've never been a major smoker, but I think America's view on weed is ridiculous. I mean, are you kidding me? If everyone smoked weed, the world would be a better place."

who cares what she has to say?
Amen!
I think she has a point.
Pot is not for everyone. I know people who get bitchy and downright abusive when they are stoned, or coming down from being stoned.
FIRST!
preach on sista! well, white girl!!!!
5th- Pot is the best and only dipshits are against it. 420
GO KIRSTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HAPPY 420 TO YOU TOO!!!!
God she's an idiot.
You can get cancer and Alzheimer's from marijuana.
Not like she is supporting heroin use or anything, perez. It's just a weed.
Not fair! You used used someone people don't like, probably because of you. Weed rules, be-atch!
my sister met her and she's a total biotch
Hi katie.
oh yeah right…
what a fuckin idiot
first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!kthxbye
OMGGGG!!! :O
rofl
everyone should just leave her alone!
she is cool and i like her!
it's true. if Walgreens gets to push, so then shall my weed dealer.
She's probably look better if everyone was high.
IDIOT!
LOOOK SHE IS IN HIGHGATE! WHERE JONNY LIVES! 4TH?
TRUE IT!
haha
agree
that's for damn sure
OOh, big deal. I agree with her quote — it isn't like she's saying that Heroin or Coke make the world a better place.
And by the way, you MUST have read Adrienne Curry's blog… you're such a fuck, Perez.
This is Super Jesus, I gave you all weed to chill the fuck out. Maybe, you should smoke it, then you wouldn't be in violent wars with each other.
1st
Yeah, like we'd all be, uh, like, uh, okay, uh, what was I uh, thinking? Uh, sure man. Weed rules! Like, um, okay, uh, um, huh?
What an idiot! Shows how years of smoking dope increased her brain activity!
Second ! She's totally crazy
first????????
Does she not have any idea of the disastrous pyschological effects it has on people???!! Some people right now will be looking up to her and copy her. NOT GOOD!
she's right.
i mean, look at all of the "gatherings" held on 4/20. in some places there were upwards of 10,000 PEOPLE there and not ONE report of violence or injury or arrest.
the world WOULD be a better place if marijuana were legal.
prescription drug use would decrease as well as violence.
what's wrong w/that???
Like your ass is hosting Tea Parties.
I FULLY SUPPORT HER VIEWS AND COMPLETELY AGREE. People just need to chill out. I mean, seriously, who goes to rehab for pot? No one, unless it's court-ordered. I mean, we drive to the parking lot of the bar, get hammered, then drive home and later complain about drunk-driving… what a completely fucked society we live in!
duh !
She's right. We Coloradoans are in the know, too. Don't believe the propoganda out there. Weed can be a great, safe alternative to alchohol, which I think is much more poisonous to our bodies and society!
Agree, she is totally right, Americans are fucked when it comes to their drug stance…
she's a moron that's why she'll be in rehab 3 more times or more by the years end
hmmm
I'd rather be in a room full of stoners than a room full of drunks! But watch out, you might get into a pillow fight with the stoners!
perhaps it was this view that landed her in rehab!
Of course it would be different, it would stop working! Thanks again Perez for showing ow dumb these people are!
First!
You've gotta be kidding me?! If everyone smoked an illegal substance the world would be a better place?? In a lot of countries she would be put to death for making that comment. lol
You go girl! Make it legal…tax it and the gov't should be happy. Personally I would much rather be around someone stoned than a drunk anyday!
Amen…..!
DAMN STRAIGHT!!!!!! go kiki!
LOL … I knOW THAT'S right Kristen….. She is right think about weed is the only drug that is not man made. It was put on this earth for a reason and it should be legal cuz god created it… I think there is a purpose for all living things on this EARTH. We just got to the plant before the Government can tax it, NOW it's illegal PLZ. Weed makes u calm, and it makes u think about things befor u react TRUST me I know. So i agree with Kristen. Do you here anything in the news about someone overdosing on weed, or crashing there car beacuse there high. Or dying in the hospital from posionin like ALCOHOL does not weed. So my question is whatttttttttttttttttttt the BIG F'ing DEAL!
Re: Hollie – just because it is illegal doesn't make it bad.. oh… wait… everyone should listen to our government cuz it's the best!!!!
not
Whats wrong with her saying this? If you drink alcohol then you are doing worse to your body than smoking weed.
Maybe you should take a toke before you judge anyone.
And if you're attempting to make her look like a "Drug Addict", it's a failed attempt. Pot really isn't that hardcore of a drug… if she would have said something about coke or another hardcore drug, that may have been a little more newsworthy.
Re: Nik – Exactly right.
The number 10 poster Laura is an idiot. Alzheimers? From pot? Where did you find this wonderful tidbit?
pot is medicine. when I have a stomach ache
a couple puffs..it's all better. God gave it to
uzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Dunst proves you can't judge a book by it's cover. Moron. If everyone smoked weed a lot of shit wouldn't get done, all the time.
I agree w/the pot comment. People said the same thing about alcohol before it was legalized… its all in moderation… you can too drunk and you can get too stoned… give me weed or vodka anytime… at least I won't wake up puking with a hang over…
this comming from someone who just got out of rehab. STFU!!!!!!!!! Kirsten is F U G L Y !
I must agree on her statement. I think that marijuana should be legal. The statistics show that alcohol has killed more people than marijuana. I just don't understand it….
I don't like her at all. But I COMPLETELY AGREE with her.
LEGALIZE MARIJUANA!
Disgusting
I couldnt have said it better my self!!! Speak on it!!! AMEN!!
I guess the jacket on inside out says it all really…..
LOL clearly the drugs have depleted her brain cells. weed isn't that big of a deal but the world would DEFINITELY NOT be a better place it everyone was high. give me a break.
One of my uncles smoked pot, didn't drink, he's now 48..he looks younger than his brother that drank beer everday of his 49 years.
Pot keeps you young, beer makes you old and
unhealthy.
wow! i totally agree! people just need to chill out and go smoke a j
AGREED!
Would we all smell as much as she does? And would we all forget to brush our hair for days on end and wear wrinkled, dirty, ill-fitting clothes? I dunno, I prefer pot-free hygiene.
Re: Laura – You are retaded!! I completely agree with Kirsten.
i totally agree..althou i dont smoke weed (that much) anymore…its very true..it would be a better place
AMEN! what a loser
Wow this girl is an idiot. No, pot isn't a huge deal, but saying that the world would be a better place if everyone smoked it? IDIOT. SHe probably just said that cuz she just wants attention since no one cares about her and her career anymore! Well too bad, I'm still not going to see your movies, that is, if you make anymore!
Come on Perez, quit trying to be so morally partial.
You're an overweight fag, let her be a pothead.
Couldn't agree more! I am a TOTAL stoner, but I also choose to be a productive member of society. Couldn't agree more….marijuana should be legalized, but never will be b/c it will put the pharmacuetical companies in jeopardy. Our government would rather have us be a pill-popping, drunk naiton! Ever heard of anyone ODing on pot? NEVER! Cracks me up to watch all the f'ing commercial for RX's that our gov. "approves"!! Side affects alone are reason enough NOT to manufacture half the drugs the FDA approves! HELLLLOOOOO…these are synthetic drugs with SEVERAL chemicals manufactured in a warehouse. Weed grows from seeds….just like tomatoes, corn and peas. Get a grip people! All you anti-potheads have absolutely NO idea what you are talking about! Too funny that our gov approves of other drugs –alcohol…..reason being–population control. Our gov approves of cigarettes…reason being–population control. The former causes liver/kidney disease (among MANY others) if you are lucky enough not to kill yourself (or others) behind the wheel. Cigs–lung cancer, emphysema, stroke, etc….which keeps the pharamaceutical companies thriving! This country is just pathetic and assbackwards! Get a grip people! WEED RULES!!!!
YRe: MissMichelle –
Yeah, OK #4, alcohol doesn't summon up any of these things?
ridiculous. you're looking up to a celebrity who spends most of her time in rehab. marijuana has SOO many negative affects. just because the losers who choose to smoke weed rather than get their life together think its right, doesn't mean it is. seriously, what kind of person sits around preaching about how smoking weed would make the world a better place? what a joke. get a life.
Perez, get real and stop hating on pot and potsmokers.. marihuana should not be considerd a drug.. if alcohol who damages so many people can be bought almost anywhere why cant weed be legal?.. i agree with kristen dunst.. there is so many people that could use a joint or two to be a little more aprochable or humane.. i dont even know why this is even a discussion anymore.. stop hating perez and roll yourself a fatty!.. enjoy!
I agree with her. It does no harm.
And she is right!
Here in Montreal, anybody can smoke pot where they want
And people wont call you a druggie because you do…
Neither police will bother, they'll just ask you to throw it away
WELL, i THINK THIS SUMS IT UP QUITE NICELY…………………………………..
Like the Indians Hemp Drug Commission three quarters of a century earlier, the Canadian Le Dain Commission conducted an inquiry into the use of marijuana. On page 156 of the report is the following:
"In the case of cannabis, the positive points which are claimed for it include the following: It is a relaxant; it is disinhibiting; it increases self-confidence and the feeling of creativity (whether justified by creative results or not); it increases sensual awareness and appreciation; it facilitates self acceptance and in this way makes it easier to accept others; it serves a sacramental function in promoting a sense of spiritual community among users; it is a shared pleasure; because it is illicit and the object of strong disapproval from those who are, by and large, opposed to social change, it is a symbol of protest and a means of strengthening the sense of identity among those who are strongly critical of certain aspects of our society and value structure today."
And I SECOND THAT!

"If everyone smoked weed, the world would be a better place." SHE TOTALLY TOOK THAT LINE FROM BONE THUGS AND HARMONYS' "WEED SONG" lol
***DOUBLE DENIM ALERT***
NOT true…I have friends who are stoned 24/7…no motivation, no intelligence, no consideration for others. Maybe she means in moderation? Somehow I doubt it, though.
Ooops!!! Didn't mean to post that twice. Sorry!!
Hey perez,
Get off your
Fucking high horse and
Stop trying to make
The pot smokers look
Bad! Weed or hemp
has an imporant role
And is used for many things
And I've never heard of anybody
Hurting anyone on pot
Like those to stupid pot commericals say,
Which I'm sure is run by republicans
And southern christains but
We just people who like to relax and spark
One up now and then, jeez why don't
You just ease the fuck up! This is what
Happens when I don't smoke pot! I GET
ANGRY!
I totally agree, the US has the most fucked up view on weed, for one thing it is not a narcotic, and in no way should be classed as one, because unlike morphine and heroin and other narcotics it is not addictive, you cannot overdose on it, there have been absolutley no studies that have found it to be detrimental to your health. It helps people eat, it calms people down, it gives people the munchies, I mean when was the last time you heard of a couple people going on crime spree when high on weed, if anything it would make you so paranoid that you would never leave the house!
ummm…why are some people on here getting on Perez?? Jesus, all he did was QUOTE her! You guys act like he put HIS two cents in. Sheesh! I'll never understand some people….
Anyway…YaY WeEd!! LMAO
You can get aids and stds
From sucking dick are u
Gonna stop people from doing
It. BITCH!
It'd certainly be a lazier place. God this is the kind of thing you think when you're sixteen and first light up.
SHE'S RIGHT
COME ON PEREZ YOU SMOKE WEEDU DO DRUGS PEREZZZZZ
agreed!
Hey its true! Right on Kristen!
she's right.
oh my gosh i so agree…as an avid weed smoker she has a point. weed is from the earth to help in stressful situations (i find). and if everyone just chilled and smoked a blunt we would have no wars
I completely agree. It has stopped me and many people I know from bein angry. I think everyone should do it for a week and lets see how the crime rate drops.
You dumbass you arent the only one that thinks that way. my grandparents even think that way and they dont smoke pot either.
I AGREE. i like kristin she seems like one of the few normal celebs left
That is the smartest thing she has ever said. Period.
What a tool. My problem with pot is that it is a gateway drug for a lot of people, especially teenagers. Look at Drunkst, she has really kept it together and has only done marijuana. Not.
She does have a very good point… We should all just have a smoke and a nice cup of tea. The world will be a much nicer place.
