    1. Legalize 2. Watch people get Hurt 3. THEN regulate.

    (Only Democrats gets a pass for legalizing products that hurt people, folks.) If this were a large pharmaceutical company’s poison products, OH THE OUTRAGE!)

    From the article:

    CBD is a cannabis extract that does not cause a high but is marketed as a healing remedy to alleviate conditions such as anxiety or chronic pain. The product’s regulation is so lax that even those in the industry have voiced concerns, the Chicago Tribune reported.

    “We were really unnerved by the lack of consistency and regulation, and the wide variety of manufacturing processes that companies were using,” said Coco Meers, co-founder of Chicago-based CBD company Equilibria.

    Meers said CBD products can contain harmful pesticides or heavy metals and may not have the promised amount of cannabidiol.
