Ya where weed is legal I think it’s a different story for us lol.
But even here people use pesticides and chemicals. Make heinous amounts of money. Trash the entire industry with no integrity to those who came before them. It’s sad really

Legal weed is cool and all but all it really does it create a much larger and more sketchy black market. Like u said tho even the legal stuff is sketchy. If you didn't grow it don't smoke it.

It's cool if you grow it yourself I'm just saying don't trust weed grown by someone you don't know for various reasons. It would be nice if it was properly regulated the problem is consumers don't know what they are buying. The weed game rn is all fucked these people selling carts with fucked up shit in em and kids are the ones that end up buying them bc they can't go get it from dispensary and end up vaping meth or some bs and dying. You read that right people have been getting seriously ill and dying from cannabis products. Didn't hear about that back when it was illegal did you.

i bought weed from random black market folks for most of my life. not knowing where the weed came from.. never had a single issue. the legal weed is tested and regulated. always weighs up. always in stock. you must not live in a legal area. no one gets sick from cannabis flowers. you wana try some random carts and vapes.. have fun with that. kids aren't allowed in dispensaries dude. so any kids that get sick from vapes are those buying from untrusted sources.

people in my area are not getting sick but it's been happening nationwide in places weed is legal do some research on it man. I agree with you I bought black market weed for many years without any issues obviously it's nowhere near as bad as other drugs. I was referring to the carts that people have been dying from. Weed is a great drug I got bales of it but the whole idea of "weed is safe and harmless" is dangerous because then kids start to believe it and become victims to drug dealers that could give a fuck about who uses their products they just want the most money as fast as they can get it. I think weed should have never been illegal in the first place but there but now that it's being legalized there needs to be better public education on the dangers of street drugs and what marijuana can do to your body if you abuse it as well as regulations and testing for the products being sold

in the grand scheme of things there are not many shady weed dealers. uf they want money fast, they need to keep customers, not sell bad shit. youre right it does happen, but hardly. yeah a handful of people ate getting sick or dying from bad vapes. its not very many people. and maybe the person's body couldn't handle the shit. i dont blame weed. its gods gift

It says a lot that it takes 8 pages, and most of the reasons against weed are either personal moderation issues, or having shit connections. Who the hell is getting "sick" from smoking weed? Is this the new vaping? Is legal bud that bad? WTF?

legal may be great but in a medical state... i'm a broke ass guy every week there is a meal or 2 i'm missing and have to beg and barrow from someone.. so coming up with 300$ every 5 months for script + medical prices are 2x that of street.... kinda a "pay to lose" situation.... and in my state they have told the doctors to push oils and vapes and restrict herbal sales while FDA say stop vaping!!! ....

How can you say that?
If you were to analyse the total number of people throughout history who have suffered from directly using cannabis vs the total number of people who have been incarcerated, punished or otherwise suffered as a result of being caught in possession of cannabis I can guarantee you the latter would be much much higher.

I'm with you totally.
I grow my own and do not have a care in the world about pesticides, in the weed or in the environment due to my smoking.
I still am amazed when I think about the life changing impacts I would have suffered if I'd have been busted as a kid.

Truly legal weed is fantastic.
IE, its totally legal to grow your own weed without restriction/licenses/etc
But regulated weed that prevents people from growing, and restricts commercial opportunity to those with lots of money is bullshit
We are increasingly seeing things head in this direction, and that's also what all the recent hubbub about vape pens is about - introducing regulation to push out small business because there's lots of money to be made for the big guys
My biggest gripe with weed currently is that it eventually disrupts your natural dopamine production, much the same way stimulants will, and this is why it has a reputation for killing motivation and losing the magic after long term usage

The worst thing about weed is that it is literally THE most universal and persistently-applicable cure to boredom with the least side effects.
You can be drunk and bored. You can't be blazed and bored, and that is insidiously dangerous if you don't have discipline.

when i quit smoking it definitely took me over a year to shake off that feeling of being bored 24/7 without it and even longer before any sort of creative juices started flowing. for chronic users and imo esp. the ones smoking dabs the dopamine thing is one of those things that keep people using without really realizing the unintended consequences, similar to a caffeine addiction (the day doesn't start without it even if it is already 2pm)
