“Tatort” star Wotan Wilke Möhring: My children can smoke weed | Entertainment

Red carpets, evening wear and countless cameras are routine for him. But that was new territory even for “Tatort” star Wotan Wilke Möhring: at a cannabis gala on Thursday he promoted smoking weed. I’m sorry, what?

A sweet scent wafted into Cologne’s flora, guests and celebrities strolled across – of course – a green carpet. But those who smoked weed here were no ordinary consumers: at the “Golden Leaf Gala” patients, doctors and pharmacists shared their experiences with cannabis for the sick.

Cannabis helps against pain

In a trusting environment, prejudices against medical treatment (including… Krebschronic pain, epilepsy). And the expert group got prominent support for this.

More than 200 invited guests from medicine, politics, associations and health insurance companies came to the cannabis gala. Around 50 affected patients were also there

Wotan Wilke Möhring has smoked weed himself

Actor Wotan Wilke Möhring came to clarify: “Medical cannabis is not the stuff that is sold behind the train station.” He has friends who have suffered for years from not having access to the medication.

Möhring to BILD: “We know the side effects of many medications that we always take, but only the side effects of cannabis. The positive effects have not reached people. This is unfair.”

Has he ever smoked pot in private? “Of course.” Wotan Wilke Möhring made punk music in the early 1990s. It happened there too, but: “Smoking weed was more like reggae because it was slow and punk was fast.”

The actor advocates for more calm: “It’s not the beginning of the end. Smoking weed once and then heroin – that’s nonsense.”

The ARD star thought the partial legalization was great: “It takes the burden off the courts and the police,” he says. But it is also a fact: The German Police Union (DPoIG) criticized the new laws (including distance rules in schools) because there were too few officers there to control them.

The ARD star is so relaxed as a dad

The actor remains relaxed when it comes to smoking weed with his three children Mia Josefine (15), Karl Michel (13) and Henriette Marie (11). As soon as they are old enough, they can share their experiences: “If my children smoke weed, I would like to know about it. And then you can call me to pick it up. Done. That’s the advantage of knowing a little about everything yourself. And you can see that too.”

However, the “Golden Leaf Gala” itself was only about the medical necessity of administering cannabis. “With cannabis I can live my everyday life normally. “I got a much better quality of life,” said one affected person.

The specialist lectures were about “modern, enlightened healthcare”
