can anyone explain why doing this is allowed ?

Like I personally would love for the US Federal government to make weed and NN allowed again ( both were allowed until dick heads decided to changed the rules ) but why are states allowed to just switch rules in there state to X thing like this in example.

The weed thing is weird. That’s the gov (kinda) deciding to not enforce federal law in states with their own medical/recreational laws. They can however choose to enforce it again whenever they want.

 

NN on the other hand was a regulation that got removed, they did NOT make NN illegal. States have the constitutional right to create laws that do not override federal jurisdiction. Since there is no law that says NN is illegal (although Pai tried to add in an amendment to do exactly this), which means that states can choose to make their own laws regarding this since the FCC decided to repeal the existing regulations.

 

Those two are distinctly different situations. I’m glad my state decided to take it into their own hands, we’re not exactly full of progressive constituents but I’m happy the legislators decided to force NN in the state. Hopefully other states will follow soon.

If you're looking for cannabis products, you can look into hemp. Legal, has more cannabinoids than marijuana, and is available in liquid (oil) or chewables.

NN repeal isn't a federal law making NN illegal. It's within a state's roght to pass it as state law, provided it doesn't violate federal law.

According to DC laws sure, that means that DC police and prosecutors can't arrest and charge you for it. However, if they wanted, DEA agents and federal prosecutors could arrest you and charge with with breaking federal law even if it is "legal" in the area.

Hemp is (kinda) legal sure, but extracts from hemp are technically not legal. You can occasionally find stores that sell hemp extracts or CBD extracts in states where weed is still illegal but officially, if you make a hemp concentrate it is no longer legal and falls under the CSA. Those stores are technically breaking the law but it is officially federally illegal to possess hemp-based CBD extracts.

Six months? Nah. Six hours is enough time for them to make sure they are compliant because they already shouldn’t be doing the things we are forced to make legislature to stop them from doing.
