    Your whole argument is that growers can selectively breed for strength. That’s been done for as long as smokable cannabis has divereged from hemp. With proper labeling and testing, that’s not a problem unless some form of lethality or other risk does emerge as a property of weed. So far it hasn’t. Until then, it’s all hypothetical.

      Until it’s no longer hypothetical. It won’t be the breeding that pushes it. It’ll be laced with something and that will push it over.

      The solution to this is to legalise it and regulate, but ofc that’s not happening… “We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas”, weed is the prime example of this saying.
