I have also noticed that on MuchMusic they have changed the video for Afroman and have taken out all references to marijuana except for the "popcicles" that he has in the truck. You can't tell me that this is going to affect everyone seeing pot in a video or even in a movie. How can it be justified to blow up the "bad guy" saying that violence is the answer then turning around and taking a plant reference out. It's funny how these people making the decisions grew up to Easy Rider and Clockwork Orange and all of these movies. Don't get me wrong as I love a good action packed movie or video but if you are going to start picking and choosing for your audience instead of letting them pick and choose whose going to want to watch anything else that may be put out by that company or source. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE IT...DON'T WATCH IT!!! I'm just glad that I taped the video by fluke for my friend before the format was changed. Just had to give my 2 cents worth.
