Hemp or marijuana? How a new Texas law changed everything.

Hemp or marijuana? How a new Texas law changed everything.

Hemp is booming in Texas. Distinguishing it from marijuana is still a challenge. The Texas Tribune dug into hemp and marijuana with lawmakers, crime lab scientists, criminal defense attorneys and hemp entrepreneurs.

    Texas will spend thousands on a "cannabis/hemp" cases and force probation on ANYONE arrested of it, hemp or cannabis. Texas has gone totally STUPID all this for a plant.

    Glad its illegal and Thank God Texas still stands its ground. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All drugs should be OUTLAWED !

    Put your weed in a CBD container problem solved. If it says CBD they have no legal reason to test it or look into it. The pack says CBD and that’s enough to say no probable cause. They can’t prove there’s over 3% the legal stuff has .3 thc still has thc so they can’t test it!!!! Cuz they know it’ll be positive for thc it tests for thc not for how much thc 😂🤣

  8. Big J on May 15, 2022 at 7:26 pm

    Stop calling it "marijuana" it’s called cannabis. it is not a drug, it is a plant. Harry J. Anslinger labeled it marijuana as a fight against the Mexicans while big oil was making a monopoly.



  9. Heisenberg on May 15, 2022 at 7:27 pm

    Texas Republican Politicians are quite comfortable with the amount of money they collect from jailing mostly blacks and, hispanics for minor weed offenses and, getting the privatized jail kick back cash they set up long ago as well as, continuing their FAKE CHRISTIAN VALUES LIE (EVERY MINORITY FELON CREATED IS ONE LESS POTENTIAL DEMOCRATIC VOTER OF THE FUTURE)… Texans do not have the right to vote for themselves on the issue (IMAGINE THAT) which leaves it to the corrupt racist Republicans who are smoking as they please at the mansion daily. Surrounding legal states politicians are laughing at our elected fools all the way to the bank as they watch their weekend weed tourists pile in by the thousands to spend millions to enjoy what every state with a brain has now accepted…Texas Law Enforcement doesn’t seem to care one way or, the other about weed – They just do the job asked of them by these CLOWNS!

  23. Carlitto Holmes on May 15, 2022 at 7:50 pm

    The State Rep. doesnt have his head up his ass like Senator Abbott



  24. enfekted13 on May 15, 2022 at 7:50 pm

    How about make marijuana legal in Texas and gain billions in taxes and less people in jail. How about helping people instead of making it difficult and useless.. how about stopping dugs by borders.."oh because Texas makes money off that too" you would have more money for the state if you legalized it.. just stupid.

    Do you know more people die and are poisoned by cashew nuts than marijuana. Yes, it’s poisonous untill you processed it. More people die of alcohol related deaths than marijuana or hemp alone x2,000.. Texas you need to wake up. Hemp farms would bring billions to the state. Making clothes, bottles, biodegradable anything!!!

    I want to move back to Colorado!!!

  30. Phillip Saucedo on May 15, 2022 at 7:56 pm

    Texas messing the whole weed game up how u gonna call a cbd place a despensary/when u can get that out the store and they call them selfs trying to charge medical cannibis and the compassion use program when u can only get 1.0 low dose thc can’t get no higher then that in texas and it’s legal so why the hell texas making peaple have a medical card for low thc doses when it’s already legal and u can buy that without a card as u can see texas is a scandalous state stop lieing to us Texans the texas law states .5 to 1.0 that’s it and I say it again u need no medical card for something that’s already legal and thc percentage can go no higher in texas

    Seriously though we’re currently in debt, we’re changing presidents and going through COVID and we’re wasting money on Lab test to put people in jail for owning a little flower thats legal in many other states already…. Sounds pretty ridiculous.

  39. Antonio Benitez on May 15, 2022 at 8:06 pm

    So just put your bud in a CBD bud container



  40. Michael Delcambre on May 15, 2022 at 8:06 pm

    The farm bill specifically states that the Delta 9 THC has to be lower than 0.3% which is the only relevant form of THC pertaining to the law. The less psycho active forms of THC such as Delta 8, 10, 11 or thca can be higher than 0.3 and still be hemp.



  41. Ashley Star on May 15, 2022 at 8:06 pm

    I WISH TEXAS WOULD LEGALIZE MARIJUANA 😭.

    Here’s my video going over the topic and new cannabis laws in texas! https://youtu.be/5pUchgeYQPo



  47. Abel Liguez on May 15, 2022 at 8:14 pm

    And yet its still funny as shit that alcoholism is now a recognised disease….it kills more people through the addicted user yet you don’t see no sorry ass politician making it a war on drugs. How many people have been killed by a marijuana smoker? How many people have died from marijuana use? Politicians have their ass on backwards.



  48. Tiffanys Got time today on May 15, 2022 at 8:14 pm
