Hong Kong is criminalizing CBD as a 'dangerous drug' alongside heroin.

That all came to an end on Wednesday, when CBD was criminalized in the city and declared a “dangerous drug” on the same level as heroin and fentanyl. CBD is a chemical found in hemp and marijuana plants. It’s non-psychoactive, meaning it won’t get you high; instead, CBD is often marketed for everything from helping to relieve pain and inflammation to reducing stress and anxiety.

He added that more than 3,800 products were found to contain THC, though did not give further detail on the proportion or percentage of THC in those products. In a written response to questions raised in the Legislative Council, Tang suggested the government’s traditionally tough stance on THC should be applied to CBD “to protect public heath.” “We have adopted ‘zero tolerance’ towards drugs and we understand that it is a matter of public concern,” he said.

tobaccoindustry has a grip on Hong Kong politicians. Won’t be good for HongKongTourism when they treat international travelers like heroin attics.

China, canabis = heroin. Brilliant

good i dont know why they leagalize the natural herb then they want to do unnatural synthetic and commercial things with it not paper or machine oil. sad its a misuse and abuse. it should be decriminalized not legalized.

Good, should be

Not visiting there

All drugs must be identified as drugs and should all be banned and criminalised

I have been using it for pain management for more than a year, it is a game changer for me.

Wow at least China has there plan in action, we keep allowing it to cross our border. Everyone is high all the time on this CDB shit. America will be hurt until we ban all this cannabis and the feds burn down all the fields. China is killing us sending drugs to cartel.

the communist news network has all the latest communist news.

Man I just tried Cbd for the first time not too long ago, 150mg chocolate bar and it doesn’t do a damn thing. Tried smoking it, nothing. Bought the most premium pills I could find. Took 200mg worth and maybe finally felt a little something? I was kinda relaxed I guess? Cbd a scam

They are getting grief for producing fentanyl because of the Mexican cartel so it only makes sense to make anything that’s not publicly accepted “drug” illegal or criminal

Should be Xi Jinping is criminalizing CBD.

The black market will be over loaded

😲

According to the DEA marijuana is still in the same class as Heroin and LSD🤷🏿‍♂️
