      What a joke. Nobody ever said a 6 year old should light up. I know plenty of people that smoked in college and finished top 5% of their class. What a joke!

      What folks don’t realize is this ain’t the marijuana you and your friends smoked in college. Today’s marijuana has much higher THC to CBD ratio (ie more of the bad stuff and less of the potentially good), and is likely therefore much more dangerous. 🍎 vs 🍊

          Bullshit. The amount of various cannabinoids in cannabis products is highly variable, and the amount one is actually consuming is also highly variable. There are higher CBD strains too. And THC and CBD have different and interactive effects; & neither is inherently good or bad.

          The use of the word “Ain’t” really says, “credible”.

          Sir, you do realize that with higher concentrations of THC the average consumer will inhale less particulate matter (the *actual* bad stuff) to achieve the same result. Just say’n. 💁🏼‍♂️

          The "bad stuff" is FDA approved, in it's pure synthetic form, for nausea and vomiting. Maybe you should educate yourself on the potential medicinal benefits of THC. You should also consider phrasing your comments, regarding serious matters, in a way that suits a Surgeon general.

          That "bad stuff" was approved for medical use by the FDA long before that "good stuff" was. Also, the long-standing illicit market has forced the breeding of higher THC variants. Give us 90 years of /legalization/ and then look at the market.

          Firstly, use the proper name: Cannabis. Secondly, prohibition hasn’t helped kids and vulnerable populations reduce consumption, education can. Third, fear-mongering over the state of current THC content is also a direct result of prohibition, and far more nuanced than THC=bad

          I’m shocked that a government account is actually tweeting this level of biased bullshit. Today’s marijuana is same level of THC that successful leaders of this country smoke today. Why do you claim THC is ‘the bad stuff’? The people will vote your ilk out! I’m Rep too🖕🏾
