Hemp was outlawed when they realised how versatile it was and that it would destroy loads of other well established industry's, like paper, fabric etc etc they used the drug side of it as an excuse to make it illegal. It's got nothing to do with the drug side of it, it's all about the money as usual!

[@Champion-vo4bp]

It's all bullshit how they have made that illegal. And the governments are the ones bringing it in. The hard stuff. Legalize alcohol. Mad decisions. Should be the other way round.

Too true, also sad in the sense suffers couldn’t get hold of non opioid pain relief from stiff muscles,sleep to M.S, Cancer etc. Strange how Chinese vapes didn’t have a 10 yr trial mandatory in Great Britain.

We've actually got a out 300k legal gun owners here in England, and over a million registered guns, the main problem in America isn't the amount of firearms it's the medication they give out for little to no reason that twist people's perspectives and causes paranoia which leads to a lot of shootings
