What got you talking yesterday

Senior journalist Rachel Williamson had some questions about Kim Kardashian’s CBD baby shower, which was generating conversation on the Stockhead Facebook chat forum.

Member Mel Culley:

“Cannabis is coming like it or not, Canberra is about to legalise cannabis for personal use once it sorts out federal law and current drug/alcohol/medical testing criteria (family in the big house) this will flow country wide as it is around the world at present, medicinal benefits grow everyday with testing, more licences are being granted, hemp same plant no THC will grow to levels it was back in the 1800s early 1900s before the puppet masters put a stop to it, the major pharmaceutical companies are doing the best to buy everything or be involved with everything out there, where’s there’s pharmas there’s cash 😉”
