THC ban may impact product access – The University Star

The University of Texas college newspaper, The University Star, featured an article today highlighting the potential THC ban in Texas and it’s impact on the community. SSDP Ambassador, Blake Coe, was quoted in the article.

Ambassador of Students for Sensible Drug Policy Blake Coe said the ban is not a solution, but a reinstatement of past problems.

“That [ban] doesn’t mean that cannabis use is going to stop,” Coe said. “You’re going to see a flourishing of the black market, and even all of the problems that they say are the problems of the legal market are going to come back.”

Coe said with no other legal alternatives consumers would turn to illegal and unsafe means to obtain THC products posing dangers to themselves.

“The real issue is, you’ll get something that is super strong and [dealers] don’t tell you how strong it is or if [dealers] do have the amount of THC those people don’t have an idea of what that is,” Coe said.
