This video is worth watching. In one minute, it explains the rise of ER visits for tainted and unregulated cannabis products sold by bad actors taking advantage of openings in prohibition.
This is why the government must comprehensively regulate cannabis. Half ass federal gray areas leave too many consumers victims of profit seeking drug pushers who never respected the cannabis plant or its value in regulating it safely.
The hemp scam is over.
About time. It’s one plant. Splitting markets to skirt paying fees to be legitimate medical products and force feed fake weed to people while discrediting the morality behind regulating marijuana? Scum. Worse than cartels. At least cartels tell you they’re gang members. These Karen frat boys pushing hemp products were on deep, intentional sabotage. Anyone naive enough to argue “good intentions are an excuse for hurting kids” has no opinion worth crediting. These substances need all hands on deck to be used respectfully and safely. This really isn’t a game, playing with people’s brains and lives. And it’s bigger than some commie hippie culture war, as well.
I’m amazed daily the Feds are doing such a good job at the DEA hearings. If that hurts my street cred you can keep it with the other teenage fantasies best left in the 90s where they belong.
We need these federal expert people free to pursue good policy. They were trapped by Schedule One. Schedule One ties everyone’s hands in fed agencies. By law, they couldn’t do anything but fight cannabis regulations. Now they can regulate. And once they do, having worked as an IT tech in dozens of federal agency buildings and courthouses around the country, I can tell you, most of these people, especially with law enforcement background, are like, legitimate Christians risking their lives to help their fellow citizens.
Once their skill sets are freed to pursue a real solution to the drug addiction crisis the amount of fucking lives that are going to be saved is innumerable, so, let’s get our part of this done and move the unserious actors out of the discussion and get to the real meat of the matter, which is procedural litigation on one hand and also spiritual, and about human connection in a modern age of too much material and not enough prayer.
Back to work. I don’t know nearly enough about procedure yet, even if my research skills are pretty decent.
