      Good. A completely new synthetic drug untested in humans is not something the state should allow be sold in the million vape shops dominating our retail spaces.

      HHC is garbage nobody should be using, but people were buying this in their droves because a massive demand exists for cannabis and this was available in a shop instead of having to add someone on Snapchat.

      So instead of offering safe cannabis, sold by people who check IDs and put harm reduction first instead of making a profit, it’s extra business for drug dealers who will gladly sell to children and offer things far worse than cannabis.

      Why aren’t they banning Nos? You can see how prevalent it is just driving around and seeing discarded canisters on the road. I remember Ward from SF was talking about it a year ago ish but nothing since

      I’ve smoked a good bit of HHC over the last year or two and while experiences will vary, my thoughts would:

      It’s not weed, in a bad way, in that the high isn’t as nice and gives me a woeful hangover type feeling the next day. I bought it because I’m old now and don’t have a dealer and it scratched an itch.

      I’ve been off it a few weeks at the moment and frankly, my mental health has been in a far better place as a result.

      I never went for the vapes, but from reading accounts of people trying to come off those, it’s a horrible experience in a lot of cases. Severe sweating at night and sleeplessness. Anxiety levels through the roof, but I think that’s a similar experience for a lot of heavy weed users (especially anyone on a THC pen/vape, where the convenience of use means they’re baked all day long and quitting leads to massive withdrawals).

      Overall, I’m cool with it being banned, but would much rather see us allow legalised weed with proper education around it, similar to how we allow alcohol knowing it’s downsides.

      Got to make sure the dealers are getting their income

      There are Vape dealers who are selling this stuff on one side of their store while on the other wall of their shop they are selling sweets for children. The whole industry needs to be regulated or we’ll have a generation of kids hooked on vapes.

      I don’t particularly like cannabis at all, but if there’s this much demand for alternatives, they should legalise it on the basis of it being a giant money spinner for Revenue.

      Don’t worry, kids. You can still buy punches of fruity snus-stuff, since that’s not age restricted.

      If only there was a natural safer alternative that could be legalised and generate vast amount of money for the economy

      If there was ever an agrument to legalise, regulate, educate and safely sell Cannibis this is it.

      There’s clearly a demand for cannabis.

      I wonder what the chances are at this point

      Good. I used to smoke a good bit of legal cannabis in America, and a small bit of it here. I tried HHC from a buddy’s vape and it was horrible. Made me feel edgy and aggressive, totally opposite of normal cannabis. Would never touch the stuff again.

      Even though I don’t touch cannabis either, we should just legalise and tax it; the nearly infinite number of lab based alternatives are worse.

      Tried it recently on a whim in a pub after a few pints, used to be a big smoker about 7 years ago but now would only smoke a few times a year and never seek it out – this shit floored me and was not a nice high at all. Probably exacerbated by the fact it was a vape and I was a few in already, but it was even worse than smoking a J back in one of the lad’s after a mad night out. Ban this shite and legalise and regulate the real stuff. Stick to the hash.

      See you next week when they find another alternative

      If only there was a way to properly regulate and manage an actual normal version…

      Was wondering when this was going to happen, I’m not a smoker but have trouble sleeping so have used hhc edibles on occasion to help me sleep and it was handy being able to get them in a local vape shop. My experience varied massively on them so I stopped taking them, some nights I’d be fine and others they would actually wake me up. I also felt I was starting to get proper hangovers the next day. They just need to legalise weed and be done with it.
