A recent designer “synthetically enhanced marijuana” is made using marijuana and butane. Commercially grown marijuana is harvested and using butane as a solvent, the tetrahydrocannabinol is extracted in extremely high concentrations. The resulting extract can be smoked, injected or ingested and results in an enhanced marijuana high.
It seems the overwhelming social concern is not the drug dependency, societal issues or legality but that butane is flammable and that this might lead to house/apartment fires from mom and pop (oops, make that son and daughter) enterprises. So, look forward to there being a shortage of butane on the market because the liberals have passed laws restricting its retail sale. If you are in the market for summer BBQ equipment, I’d suggest charcoal over butane/propane.
Some random musings from your grumpy Uncle/Brother Dave.
