They did binding studies stupid fuck

It’s not required, it’s how they do it now since it’s easier then fucking guessing if a drug gets you fucked up retard

Here you go.

-_-

that’s about spice, not delta 8 or synthetic THCs

21 U.S. Code § 811 - Authority and criteria for classification of substances | U.S. Code | US Law | LII / Legal Information Institute.

The only things it says about binding are

The Secretary of Health and Human Services shall evaluate the proposal and furnish a recommendation to the Secretary of State which shall be binding on the representative of the United States in discussions and negotiations relating to the proposal.

The recommendations of the Secretary to the Attorney General shall be binding on the Attorney General as to such scientific and medical matters, and if the Secretary recommends that a drug or other substance not be controlled, the Attorney General shall not control the drug or other substance.

If you are ok with d8 products sold to kids at corner stores, I urge you to think this over.

I have no fundamental gripe with d8. To me, it’s just another molecule but I strongly believe that its sale should be regulated like d9.

Maybe I’m not following the reason for the discussion over cannabimimetic agents. I assumed it was another “D8 is illegal under the analogue act”




I know Google is hard

kotk believes that the DEA has to do binding site studies to ban drugs. That’s a fantasy

He equates that bit with delta 8 being legal somehow, because there’s no binding site study

I never suggested I was ok with kids getting D8. Again, disingenuous.

I think you’ve got it backwards. D9 ought to be regulated like Alcohol and Tobacco, just as D8 is (practically speaking).

I never said they had to do binding studies lol

Show me where I said that troll

Gotchya. That’s over my head.

They do have to prove there’s no medicinal value, no?

There are very clear chemical arguments as to why the production and sales of d8 are associated with just as high risks.

They don’t have to do binding studies it says they “should” though

If you think they do anything today without binding studies you must be smoking spice or something

I could continue

:roll_eyes:

I didn’t say you did, just that your suggestion to provide to people what people want comes with that unfortunate consequence.

You are literally so butthurt over d8 being legal you have to find something else to argue over which doesnt even pertain to the subject

xD

Off topic much?

and where does it say it’s a requirement, and not just an option…

It says binding site studie SHOULD be done

Have you read into any of the recent schedulings?

No?

If you had youd see they included binding sight studies
