    Ah, the black-market weed business.

    The same fine folks who poisoned their customers with vitamin E acetate turn out to also be into human trafficking.

    Whee.

    Californians, we have legal weed in this state, and it’s cheaper than ever. It’s also not full of glass beads, lead, oregano, fentanyl, rat poops, Aspergillus mold, or glyphosate.

    What a weird concept to have to designate that it is “blackmarket” … not complaining, its just still setting in.

      Right? 10 maybe 15 yrs ago the “black market” aspect would be redundant. XD
