Delta-8

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

Have you dern kids been out back smoking rope again?

 

[rooster]

So this brings up an interesting thought. Innocent until proven guilty is still the law of the land right?

So if this delta 8 substance is legal then wouldn’t a ticket, seizure and arrest for possession on the basis that it might be that horrible illegal real weed stuff be the same thing as getting a ticket/ seizure/ arrest for possession of unlabeled powdered sugar bc it might be something something else.

Now I realize the powdered sugar wouldn’t test positive in a field test kit but what if one wasn’t available and you had a baggie of sugar? Would you walk away with your sugar?

Back in my day we called Delta8 - ditch weed!

Negative, delta8 is made in a lab.

Back in my day we called Delta8 - ditch weed!

Don't know much about Delta8, but I knew a guy in high school who was busted for a whole van load of Newton County ditchweed. From what I've been told, you could smoke a whole ounce of the stuff with no effect. Pretty embarrassing to be busted with a whole van full of crap. When I asked him why he messed with it, he said, "because it was free, man!" Knucklehead.

Almost afraid to ask, but do tell ...

Nah, you would know if you knew. I have a brother in law from Newton County. I met one of his buddies at the wedding. Sometimes it is a small world, this is not one of those times .

Does anyone know if this stuff shows up in drug tests?

I have a neck injury and CBD helps a tiny amount. I HATE the high from weed, but some days it's bad enough the high would be preferable to the pain.

I don't want to do anything that could potentially be a problem for a drug test though.

If you cannot afford to fail a test, I would not mess with it. As far as I know, tests could not distinguish between delta 8 thc and delta 9 thc.

I think the whole argument for delta8 being legal is splitting hairs and thin at best.

you will fail a drug test with delta 8.

Where are you getting your numbers?

I don't know much about the other states you mentioned, but my impression of Colorado is that the violent crime rates have gone down.
The population is really growing in Colorado, so that could show increases in incidents, but a quick check on colorado showed the murders dropped in 2014 from 2013 (2014 was the first year of legalization).

I might be totally wrong, where did you get your numbers, Thor?

Almost everything you think you know about the health effects of cannabis, almost everything advocates and the media have told you for a generation, is wrong.

I never ever recall walking around with a bag of sugar in my pocket.

Thank you. I think you should reread the article. I think you are getting confused about what it says.

Having grown up in the age of Aquarius and living the whole thing in my early years I was surrounded by all of this. I knew some of the most serious stoners on the planet down to the casual one joint after work crowd. Never knew one of the to be a schitso. Slow on the uptake maybe. Dangerous..... hell no. I have watched these folks grow old and many have continued the intake while many have stopped. And no it is not a gateway drug. Anyone dumb enough to step into the ring with the evil was destined for the big time anyway.
Now a boozer is another story.

There’s a big difference between the weed grown in the past and a lot of the weed now. THC levels are greater. Add to that the number of people with pre-existing mental health issues who may or may not be, or should be on medication.

I don’t think you can directly correlate to weed being THE factor causing any increase in violence. However, for some, it can cause breaks from reality (and not in the fun, munchies kinda way). Add in social isolation, immersion into a virtual reality, not even talking about true V.R. but social media and indirect communication.

THC Percentage in Cannabis: How Much Is Too Much - Hail Mary Jane ®

Cannabis has come a long way since its popularized use in the ’60s and ’70s. In fact, one study shows THC potency and percentages have increased by 212% between 1995 and 2015, alone. As we’ve watched the legalization of cannabis increase exponentially, so have the strains that are available for...

I think a very compelling argument can be made against using mj.

If my 16 year old nephew asked me if he should start smoking pot, I would tell him "No, nobody should smoke anything and pot might mess up your brain as it forms, however you ingest it."

If my congressman asked me, "should the government prohibit adults from smoking pot?", I would tell him "No, that is ridiculous."

Brother we all have a view point in this. I am one who believes what ever we take in has an effect in some way good or bad.
Everything has a side effect or so it seems.
Pick your poisons. All things in moderation.

Absolutely.

A lot of stuff on forums becomes bickering back and forth. Each person trying to score points over each other.

I hope i did not come off that way. You are not coming off that way fwiw.
