bob marley has influenced a lot more things than just "the pot industry" he has influenced the beliefs of people as far as equality goes. his only belief wasnt that we should all smoke pot. he also believed in equality for all people. you should look up rastafarianism.

The only reason marley smoked canabis and sang songs defending canabis, is because he as long as the rastafarians beleived that it connected him closer to the rastafarian god.

WELL BOB MARLEY'S MUSIC CAME FROM THE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE BIBLE.NOW THAT IS A GOOD THING AND YES HE SMOKED CANABIS...BUT THAT WOULD BE UP TO THAT YOUTH IF HE WANTED TO FOLLOW THAT PART OF BOB MARLEY'S LIFE. THE YOUTH'S IF TODAY HAVE TO LEARN TO TAKE THE GOOD PARTS OF A PERSON'S LIFE AND LEAVE THE BAD. LIKE MY JAMAICAN CHARM BRACELET. IT HAS MEANING TO IT.(ISLAND)-ONE LOVE AND OUT OF MANY PEOPLE.(EMBLEM)- OUR BRITISH HERITAGE.(LION OF JUDAH)- FROM OUR RASTAFARIAN CULTURE AND MUSIC. see site. www.rljones2000.com

For people saying that Bob Marley only smoked pot and stuff, that is true, but it was in the 70s and everyone was smoking up anyways! it was just as normal as listening to music off an iPod or other form of mp3 in this day and age.

Marley has influenced the whole world. He was a freedom fighter and all some of you can say is he made pot industry go up. It is his religion. Do you think the pope made bread and wine industries what they are today.

Bob Marley has acheived a lot. He overcame racism as a child and went on to denounce it to others all over the world, thru his music and thru his actions. He was a pacifist, and spread the message of making love, not war. He also brought Jamaican culture and reggae music to the rest of the world. He changed a lot of peoples thoughts about war and how people should be treated, and those new beliefs live on and grow stronger in the youth today.

To those who think Marley is only about smoking pot: the reason he pushed smoking weed was because heroin and crack was very bad in Kingston and he wanted people to kick the hard shit and chill with something lighter.

bob marley smoked bud for 3 reasons..

for rastafarianism.. it's their worship to Jah..

and because it's one god given object..
because it ain't do much harm..
cigarettes are worse than joints
