Alright, This is getting to me, Everywhere I go I see people confuse hemp and weed, And it's starting to piss me off.

If you look through the 'Original Resources' section, You'll see what I'm talking about.
Edit: It's mentioned in the piece that 'raw ingestion' would get the dude high.
C'mon, Stoner Sickness? It makes the affected totally inept at work or combat of any kind?
I can see where that could be perceived with some humour, But c'mon, Seriously?
So, I'm asking you, What d'you think about this?
Its not that big of a deal really..
It wouldn't be if it was just one person, But it's like every other person I've talked to; People are so misinformed about drugs that I honestly believe legalization is going to be ridiculously hard.
And I've had people ask if they could smoke my hemp shirt before, Hearing that always depressed me about the future of humanity.
Interesting.
So they are entirely 2 different plants?
not entirely
Hemp contains such a small amount of THC that if you tried to smoke it, you'd pass out before you got high.
I have hemp lotion in both of my bathrooms
says it contains no thc.

They're close-cousins, But hemp is useless for THC extraction.

I've always learned that hemp and marijuana are the same plant, but that the way they are grown and bred that the THC in hemp is extremely low. Hemp focuses more on stem growth so you have a nice sturdy industrial material while weed focuses less on the stem and more on getting big ass buds.

Yea thats pretty much it. You see videos of industrial hemp like on The Union, and you can clearly see how its just really tall, mainly stalk. Theres not much foliage, and even less bud. Now compare that to certain indicas which grow maybe a max of 4 feet tall and have lots of foliage and thick heavy buds, and maybe an average stem.
