Delta 8/intoxicating hemp regulatory and enforcement actions/news

I remember during the prohibition era headshops and glass galleries were usually pretty strict on the etiquette and they didn’t even allow minors into the store, you couldn’t even look at stuff let alone buy it without being 18. It feels like things have changed in the vape store & gas station era or maybe the difference is that they are only required to ID at point of sale. Prob pointless but idk, I think the headshop(18 to enter) model limits exposure to kids, some gas stations are wild nowadays.

Dude you couldn’t even say bong inside of them! I remember when Massachusetts got decriminalized I went over to the headshop down the road that I was buddies with and just went in yelling ‘BONG! BONG! BONG! BONG!’ out of celebration

Texas vape ban that slid under the radar and becomes law 9/1/25, seems to cover pretty much any cannabinoid or legal highs and the smyle co style penjamin/common object lookalike batteries. Class B misdemeanor to sell it if I’m understanding correctly

Banning e-cigs wholly or partially manufactured in China is aggressive. I guess that explains why Phillip Morris is building a $600m vape factory in Colorado. And it looks like they bumped it up to class A in the enrolled version.

They just said “Law enforcement will tell you it’s the new meth.”
“Veterans are offended. They say they are not drug addicts and not victims.”
Ooph. He just gave a compelling argument for the white market creates a robust black market. You really need prohibition.
He just said veterans blame higher suicide amongst their ranks on hi THC psychosis, not trauma.
Sorry I don’t know who “He” is. no name tag.
Calling for more arrests.
“There is not an argument out there that has any validity and people coming here to testify better be careful not to lie about families and veterans.”
“It is not a regulatable situation. There is no way to stay ahead of the chemists.”

Fucking Reefer Madness lol.

Who talks like that? Mercy. It isn’t just the reefer madness, it’s all the language. “Lots of foreign names on the list. Lots of middle eastern descent”

According to the VA, ptsd has been traced back to at least the Civil War. Must have been the weed.
