I think the <i>real</i> issue here is the idea that we need to check each and every one of these boxes <i>before</i> pot is legal. We didn&#x27;t make sure to check each and every box, and think up contingencies for each and every situation  that could ever happen before we allowed alcohol and cigarettes to be sold to the general populous.<p>&gt; So if something comes round that&#x27;s basically pot, but also sometimes causes instant death in people who take it, we should allow its sellers to operate under our marijuana legislation? And how do you even know if it&#x27;s &#x27;pot enough&#x27; to qualify for marijuana legislation?<p>e-cigs, vaping, etc. The same thing comes up with cigarette-derivatives, yet we don&#x27;t ban cigarettes (and throw all cigarette users in jail) until there are laws in place covering all contingencies.
