Finally, around 2023, the legal cannabis frontier pushed even further. Enterprising vendors realized that Congress had banned cannabis “flower” containing more than 0.3 percent of delta-9 THC — but that even intoxicating cannabis doesn’t contain delta-9 dHC.
Instead, it contains delta-9 THCa — or tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, a chemical that is non-intoxicating unless exposed to heat, at which point it is converted to intoxicating THC. (That’s why simply eating marijuana doesn’t get the consumer high.)
Therefore, based on a strict reading of the 2018 Farm Bill, Congress hadn’t just legalized the growth of hemp fibers — it had legalized smokable, intoxicating cannabis, which was legal up until the point that the purchaser lit it on fire.
As one online vendor notes, “THCa is completely legal across the U.S. It contains less than 0.3 percent Delta-9 THC, which according to the DEA, makes it federally legal.”
Lmao
Idiots couldn’t even write their own law with the proper chemical in cannabis. They wrote it as THC but cannabis only has THCA until its decadbolized. Thats how people can sell smokable weed as ‘hemp’.
A few years ago everyone in the senate unanimously passed a bill to abolish day light savings. The reason is because the interns brought in the bills, and the politicians just told them to sign off on it without reading it. Of course, the one good thing that this godforsaken country can muster up never passed the house.

“No comment,” Cotton told BuzzFeed News when asked why he didn’t object to the bill.
Don’t you love how the elected representatives of the people have 0 obligation to answer questions about their decisions
Wicker said he has concerns that children will be at increased danger going to school during dark mornings, but said he ultimately declined to get involved because he is more focused on issues like the war in Ukraine.
Lol, lmao, etc. USA politics in a buttshell
These people really think most children are still walking to school. These days maybe a combined 10% of students walk, bike, or use other means of conveyance besides car or bus. Increasingly many municipalities in the US either legally or defacto ban children from being outside in their own yards unattended, you think kids are walking to school?
The vast majority of children don’t even live close enough to school to walk or bike anyway, regardless of hostility to unattended children.
A lot of schools wont even let kids walk to school unless they kice within a couple blocks. That’s why elementary schools have a msavvice line of cars outside every afternoon since kids too close for a bus route can’t walk to school.
It’s not even about living close enough. It would be illegal to walk to the elementary school that’s closest to me even though it’s only half a mile away. There are no crosswalks, part of it is a highway, and you’d have to walk through private property (front lawns) to get there.
America has atrocious design. The entire thing needs to be uprooted, given back to the indigenous people and then all landlords executed.
Yeah, “close” isn’t even the right word. It’s not just walking distance that children have to contend with, it’s just walkability.
Child safety is also frequently cited as the reason we can’t have 15 minute cities, or just reasonable urban planning in general.
I’d want to see the numbers run because I’m very certain that more kids die on highways in a single day than get assaulted/kidnapped while walking around in a whole year.
wait i should be cooking these gummies?
No the gummies contain cannabis extracts that have already been converted into the form your body can metabolize.
THCa rocks/diamonds are pretty cool actually. Less than 4$/g in bulk. Can be converted into THC during cooking, so it’s easier than decarbing or turning already-vaped bud into edibles.
j*sus marie they’re not rocks they’re minerals!
yo uhhh… where are you finding it that cheap?👀
I don’t get it. Wouldn’t this case already be covered under the Federal Analogue Act?
idk I think there’s shit being sold as “legal thca” that is not the same as regular weed because it does fuck all when smoked
