I am incorrect in thinking that hemp can’t make a person high the way MJ does? Wrong or right, do you know?

Oh, it can make you high alright! That's probably why the government fears Tar, Feathers and assorted things made from hemp.

Like this for example.

Hemp and the MJ are the same plant.

If you plant the individual stalks close together, you get MJ. If you space them further apart (I don’t know the exact distance, but, apparently George Washington did) you get hemp.

(Apparently, according to his diary, GW about smoking Marijuana)

You are correct. Hemp is illegal for the same reason libs want SKS, AR-15 and other semi-automatic guns banned...they LOOK like the real assault weapons. Hemp is illegal because its leaves look like MJ leaves. Hemp has a trace of THC, but you couldnt smoke it fast enough to catch a buzz.

Hemp seed is a great source of livestock feed and can be processed into fuels. Its really a wonder plant.

Right. You couldn't smoke enough of industrial hemp to get high.
