    That’s fine to have your own opinion but don’t restrict my rights to grow the stickiest of the icky. Sometimes I want to roast a fat joint and be functional. Sometimes I just want to sleep without toking for a half hour. One hit shit absolutely has its place, and with accurate labeling, you can be the judge.

      It’s not opinion, you irresponsible doofus, but verifiable fact at this point - hence the article.

      You can’t prevent people from growing it themselves at home no, but selling high grade over the counter? Heeeell no. Not in my country.

      That would get cannabis super banned almost instantly after legalization, which would be dumb, counter productive - and irresponsible.

      And if you went around distributing it without clearly informing of it’s THC/CBD ratio and the implications thereof?

      Straight to jail - because it could be a costly, irresponsible form of stupid, that could cause harm to someone else and lasting damage to them - all because “that shit be hype”?

      One year in prison. Same as when selling ethanol. No exceptions.

      “One hit shit”. You mean noisy, loud, tweak head shit. Why not skip a step and go straight to meth? Maybe synthesize a concentrate you can inject straight into your groin even. Call it groinnabis. Smh.

        I said it should be tested and labeled properly so consumers can make their own decisions. The article sucks, it’s not “verifiable fact”. Hit me with those peer reviewed studies in a journal worth a shit if it’s such a fact.

        You can’t prevent people from growing it themselves at home no, but selling high grade over the counter? Heeeell no. Not in my country.

        You want people who would like to use strong cannabis have to go to the black market instead of buying something tested and labeled over the counter and making an informed decision.

          Are you in full honest making the argument equivalent to “people should only drink beer and wine. Even imagining spirits is equivalent to jumping off a bridge”?

                Allow me to hit back. No. But by that token pure ethanol that can make you go blind should also be sold over the counter, right?

                  Isn’t it most places? You can always drink some gasoline if you’re into that.

                  Trying to restrict stuff by law and trying to enforce it with police breaking into people’s homes and frisking them on the street and highway has proven to not achieve anything for many years now.

                    Why are you people so bad at reading, or are you just trying to misdirect?

                    You either missed the point entirely - or you’re trying to ignore it. But that’s why we use simple language and conveyance to dismiss such tomfoolery.

                    Pure ethanol… right? Pure ethanol is illegal to sell as a beverage. With me so far? But ethanol… is the effective ingredient in alcohol. Understood? Good.

                    You keeping a bottle and drinking it… is not the same as distributing it as a beverage in say a store, a bar, your grandma’s house, etc… Yes? We can’t make it illegal for you - that’s you in your private home - to destroy your body by drinking it yourself. Agreed?

                    But… if you then… go give that bottle to someone without informing them “hey bro, this is pure ethanol - this shit’ll burn your cornia”, and by neglecting to do so, they go blind when drinking it? That’s what we call wilful negligence - in legal speak.

                    If you do that, then you deserve time in prison for wilful negligence and causing bodily harm to someone. Right?

                    Or… are you some sort of psychopath? Or perhaps a libertarian? I’m a socialist libertarian, so let me know if you need to learn something about why law is still important and why causing harm to others - be it intentional or not - should be illegal. Here’s a hint: we still need licenses for running major industrial machinery for a reason.
