Tennesseans getting high on new "legal weed" Delta-8 

Alcohol has caused way more problems in society than weed.

Legalize the real stuff, let us grow our own

Crime rate has gone down 0.3% in Tennessee.

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life

I love how the FDA allow tobacco products even though it causes cancer, but oh lord marijuana is so dangerous

i love how the fda allows sawdust as a fiber in the food protocol but they draw the line at boneless weed

I trust weed way more than I trust this stuff...

If the people of TN can use delta 8 then they need to go along with legalizing cannabis.

FDA: "Delta-8 may be harmful and dangerous." Also FDA: "Oxycontin is non habit forming and perfectly safe to over prescribe to everyone."

Weed should be Federally legalized in all 50 states.

It’s crazy that it’s easier to get opioids from the government and weed is still illegal.

Alcohol is far more dangerous than THC. Weed should be federally legal. War on drugs has been a complete failure too

There’s no such thing as legal weed until you can get a job with weed in your system and the federal government doesn’t consider it illegal on the federal level.

The "adverse events" were literally just symptoms of getting too high lmao

A friend with weed. Is A friend indeed

so awesome to see all these things getting legalized just in time for the older generations to have more of the medicinal painkillers they need during their retirements. I used to think weed was just about getting high, but once I got older myself, I learned how we all need as much help as we can get to cope with our bodies breaking down due to aging. god bless america for evolving, now we can help more and suffer less!

I love how weed is still federally as bad as meth, but Xanax (made by Pfizer) which causes actual addiction and physical dependency is classified as low addiction.

Imagine a country that encourages alcohol sales, laments drunk driving, then takes its frustration out on a plant. LOLOL. Wait. THAT'S US.

Please folks, don't use this. Push for legalization.

22 reports of "vomiting and loss of consciousness" in the entire country over a year? Hell...there's 22 reports of that nature from just one busy bar on a Friday night lol. Must be pretty safe stuff!

Those two reporters went and bought some immediately after work. You could see it in their eyes. And how fast she snapped back with “I didn’t either”

Maaaan Delta 8 ain’t doin nun to me 😂

In Australia cannabis has the same classification as heroin despite the majority of drug-related illness being alcohol, big surprise

Weed just needs to be fully legalized.

Cmon Tennessee! Just legalize marijuana. Get on board.

The news segment did a wonderful job of advertising.

It’s about time they legalize it everywhere. It blows my mind how it’s perfectly acceptable to drink alcohol but god forbid you smoke some weed 🤨

Honestly hope they legalize weed for everyone. Michigan did and it gave me a option to now start legally growing my own. Beginner but I have a option I didn't take seriously before.

Delta 8 is a gift from God. I’m so happy everyday. Without the anxiety of real tree.

I’ll never understand why weed is illegal in certain places. But alcohol is legal everywhere

I use it for my PTSD and it's wonderful. If I didn't switch off the meds the VA kept pushing down my throat, I'd easily would be dead now. My kidneys nearly shut down twice in 2014.

"Hallucinating, vomiting, trouble standing, dizziness" sounds like green outs to me 🙄😂

News reports be like, wow I didn't even know about this 😂 gosh wonder why 😂

I don’t care what anyone says there is nothing like smoking real bud .

They're afraid to legalize weed everywhere because everyone would be happy...

Reporter: "Ugh...I didn't even know about this stuff". Me: "You still don't"

I up until recently was a heavy delta 8 smoker... That stuff is way more addictive than marijuana, and the withdrawals were also way worse. I don't think I'll ever pick it up again

She is right, legalize it so we can focus on it's true effects on health

I feel bad for the states that haven't legalized.

The fact that there are still states where smoking weed is illegal is wild 😂

Delta8 is a miracle and is very telling about the nature of weed and the struggle between feds. It proves its almost completely safe, especially in comparison to alcolhol.

What adverse effects from alcohol were reported to the FDA and how many cases were there? This is way safer than alcohol

If I don't grow it, I ain't smokin' it. I don't trust Uncle Sam or nobody else with my goddamned weed.

I love how they will allow this synthetic Delta 8 crap but they wont allow regular weed that ppl been using for 1000s of years!

Now I know where the news anchors are going after work!! "Fascinating!"

I quit weed about 8 years ago, but smoked it for 40 years and never got arrested. It being illegal was't a factor.

Ive lived in Tennessee all my life. I love this state more than life itself. Tennessee used to produce the finest tobacco and marijuana in the entire country. later on we became known for tobacco and whiskey. I think its time we legalize marijuana and become famous for all three.

Delta8thc is what everyone was expecting cbd to feel like

"I don't even know about this!" Well I guess I knew where she went after work lol

Man I live in Texas and if they start banning delta products I'm gonna be pissed. I'm conservative but weed laws are absolute bull.

in meantime cigarettes are sold for decades with whole periodic table in them

I own a hemp business based in Dayton, TN, Get Lost Hemp. Let people buy this stuff, it's great and makes their life genuinely better. It's further reason why we need legalized cannabis.

Just legalize it everywhere and stop the confusion.

Delta 8 lol 😂what is that a airplane

We all know how concerned the government is about our health. mRNA , no heat sources, corporate designed viral pathogens and accompanied life altering cures, and pending nuclear annihilation,. But they are worried about this extremely mediocre stuff. Yep.they really care for you

The anchors are like, I didn’t even know about this. Now I’m going to get some 🤣

"I didn't even know about this." She's Gonna stop by her nearest head shop and pick up some after work. LMAO

And all because a few people want to fill their pockets. If cannabis were finally legal, you wouldn't have to resort to crap like this.

I'm grew up in Tennessee and have medical issues and live in Missouri and agree that legal Marijuana is the way the go and agree with Ms. Gloria Johnson. Also with the ability of low income homes able to grow their own personal crop within the guidelines set forth helps all those that need it and real Marijuana is 100%natural

“If the words 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness' don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on.” Terence McKenna

Like I would trust ANYTHING the FDA has to say !

Just legalize it nationally its about time. I dont even smoke weed but I cannot imagine that it still needs to be outlawed.

Adverse events included : vomiting, hallucinations, trouble standing, loss of consciousness... 🤣For real? THE FDA IS COMING FOR YOUR BARS AND NIGHTCLUBS NEXT

The FDA: there have been 22 non fatal incidents in the past two years, you should re think this drug Meanwhile also the FDA: come get your 12 pack of cancer sticks! The more we sell the more you’ll buy!

Vomiting, hallucinations, trouble standing, loss of consciousness? I gotta get me some.

Detla 8 gave me some of the worst panic attacks and created an overall feeling of discomfort. Regular Delta 9 THC naturally occurring in cannabis has never caused this problem for me.

I really hope they stop making Marijuana look worse then alcohol I personally have never gotten drunk or drank alcohol and am proud to say it I grew up watching people drink alcohol and they would always get irritated and start arguing and fighting for the smallest things and in the other hand Marijuana more less intoxicating and more relaxing and enjoyable filled with laughter and good times including munchies I really hope they pass the bill am a proud supporter let’s make this world a better place and help those that are in need of help legally LETS GOO 💚

That politician woman has never done a days worth of "hard work" in her life. 22 cases is unbelievably low amount of reported issues and yet the "reporter" says despite that they are still willing to sell it, implications.

Quick story : I grew it in my garage. (Cannabis) in California for 10 years . I loved it because I would market it to mostly to Chemo Patients that had no idea of its benefits during cancer treatments. When I offered the help some families denied it but most we’re willing my to try it. Some couldn’t eat . Or sleep. Had Nausea . Shortness of breath . Every single patient had positive results. The worst complaint was my aunt with a brain tumor called me said she was seeing butterflies 🦋 in the house. All I could say was cut back on the dosage. Most rather ingest so I would use coconut oil and combined with Cannabis oil. I would even be called to hospitals . I would talk to doctors and they would know what I was doing there and every time they were astonished at its quick results. So far people who have called me for it was for 1. Shingles 2. Diabetic ointment for the feet and legs. 3. Chemo 4. Appetite 5. Sever Nausea 6. Skin Cancer 7. Psoriasis 8. Muscle relaxer 9. Migraines 10. Insomnia

Nebraska has been selling Delta-8 Cannabis for 3 or 4 years now. I was in Omaha for 2 Midwest Winters. The Cannabis I got at “50 Shades of Green” effected me to the point that I couldn’t get off the ground. Serious Indica Couch-lock. Let’s face it, like one employee told the customer ahead of me one time, THC is THC. It’s all about the Strain.

Illegal aliens are legal but weed is not.

Legalize it. That works great on the entire west coast. It improved the quality and price is much lower and us smokers who have enjoyed it for many decades are not criminals anymore.

As a guy who’s just come off weed after two solid years… I can say it ain’t as much of a problem as alcohol. It’s just not profitable for the leaders, so it’s not available.

Theyre asking a guy about cannabis & he doesn't even know how to pronounce "cannabinoid" correctly. He literally said "CABINOID" 😂

I bought a Delta 8 vape from my gas station lol hit it this morning I was high af it's no joke.

Speaking from California Legalization has saved my life! I'm that 65 year old person he was talking about. I don't have that much time left ... this makes it bearable!

People will try all kinds of ways to get high when weed is not readily available. Tennessee just needs to catch up with the 21st century and legalize recreational cannabis, and Delta-8 will become a thing of the past.

When I moved from Colorado to Georgia I switched to Delta 8 and let me tell you it was amazing

Every single one of the “adverse events” were people who have never smoked before deciding to take like 8 rips in a row. Told a first time smoker to take one small hit and he took 5 and had all of these effects in the same night…

That small amount of thc is actually perfect for patients that want to medicate but not feel like they can't function properly

bruhh why is it legal or illegal ? who are u to decide what i can do or not can do ? do you let me tell you what to do ??? hahahaha sheeeepsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

TBH, I don't know why Tennessee hasn't fully legalized cannabis yet. TN should know better than anybody what prohibition really does, considering they're the moonshine state.

This is why cannabis just needs to be legalized. So everything is regulated. That being said, delta 8 CBD got me by for a long time, with terminal pain. You get a small manageable buzz. It's rather nice actually. I prefer it. I now have my medical mj card, but I use cbd flower and thc flower mixed together. It's so perfect for me. I can sleep and eat now! All states need to fully legalize! Let's go!

Im glad that this covers all good and bad of the entirety. There's nothing demonizing it in this video and I'm glad. But people need to know that the reason its illegal in thc legal states is due to taxation, the states get more taxes from regular bud than Delta due to the hemp loophole and daddy government dont like that. We just need to legalize.

0.3% thc is a joke. The average strain I smoke is generally 22-28% thc

Just vote these crooked anti-cannabis politicians out of office, You can claim to support legal weed online but unless you vote your words are meaningless.

I'm from TN and living in GA now and I'm thankful for delta-8. I have severe sleep problems that held me back for a decade. I got on Mirtazapine (antidepressant) which makes me tired halfway through the following day. Recently, I've been taking a 50/50 delta-8/CBN tincture in the afternoon and it makes for a relaxing day and then sound sleep without the prescription. The South should have been the region leading the charge on full cannabis legalization. We're a big agricultural supercenter and farmers want to grow marijuana alongside their hemp right now.

1-gov makes weed illegal, charges the public for weed crimes 2- the pharmaceutical industry makes huge profits 3- make weed legal taxable, and paid to the government. 4- repeat cycle

I just discovered delta 8. I'm in Alabama. I'm 62 and had completely lost my appetite 4/5 puffs and thank God I'm eating at least one meal a day.

Delta 8 saved my life. I suffer from severe PTSD due to an electrical arc blast that gave me 85% body burns back in 2001. Living in Kentucky was always difficult getting any help whatsoever due to the opioid epidemic. Found a doctor in Nashville. A new law went into effect January 1 2013 that banned filling an out of state prescription. 6 months of no sleep caused an acute heart pain that was unrelenting for years. Doctors in Kentucky couldn't find anything wrong with my heart, I told several it was because of no sleep. Cardiologist can't do anything about that. Was told to see primary care doctors. That was useless here. October 2019 I had my first heart attack, a little over 6 years without my brain slowing down enough to fall asleep. It wasn't that I slept poorly, or very little, it was none at all. Around June of 2020 is when I first heard of Delta 8, tried it, although it takes a lot, about $20 worth a day, it does work. If you hear of politicians that want to ban it, and want a real, legitimate story of why it should be left alone, contact me. Politicians screwed my life by cutting off necessary medications needed for any horrible accidents, (believe me I would have much rather been able to drop dead) and this is the only thing that I have been able to find that works, and I will fight for it. Cross my name with accident date, I'm in the news.

“adverse effects”. that means 22 people have reported that they greened out lmao.

Delta 8 backed me off from suicidal thoughts. I don't recommend it for people who are not having much difficulties in life but if you struggle with depression and anxiety as a last resort this is very effective especially paired with a counselor/therapist.

Delta 8? 😂 smh no thanks. Go real or don't at all. 😂

its always goofy how a small class of people decide what laws and rules the whole world has to abide by. i wish the government would just let it reign. We decide, not you!

"what's the problem with Tennessee?" I lived there for over 3 years & I can say their weed laws are insane. My buddy once got 14 days in jail and a $1400 fine in 2010 for less than a gram

You get all those side effects and violence from drinking booze but it's legal.

It’s easy to make delta8. Simply feed your dog with marijuana and wait a few days then collect his poo.

Smoking that is like smoking rope 🤣just cause it looks like weed don’t be fooled 😂

I got out of Portland Oregon last year and come back to Nashville TN and they have this stuff and I’m like I want the real weed. I’m going back to Oregon

There's no reason to keep cannabis or hemp illegal and quit playing games by legalizing it at the state level only.
