I don't know if you're talking specifically about Delta 9 THC but generalizing it to just recreational weed makes that last statement literally just false information. Not trying to say that was intentional or anything, I also don't intend to come across like some stoner who's nitpicking. I just figure there's people out there who might want information because that's kind of a big statement considering 15% is estimated to be roughly 51,000,000 people.
You can legally purchase recreational weed of the Delta 8 isolate* in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina. Furthermore you can legally purchase recreation weed of the Delta 10 isolate in Alabama, and Georgia, though while it's federally legal Florida and South Carolina both consider it illegal on a state level. Which is fine because you can still purchase Delta 8 completely legally.
There are vape shops all over the place that will gladly sell you anything from buds, to vapes, to gummies and oils. There are online shops that ship anywhere in the US so long as the product is legal in your state.
*Delta 8/10 is literally just an isolate of the plant, it's still weed, people just get really elitist about it because it's legal and Delta 9 THC is only legal at 0.3% because it's been around longer and is easier to control because people call it "weed" and I swear people have been convinced it's the only real weed and as someone who used to literally grow the stuff and worked in an dispensary it's really annoying to see people discredit Delta 8 and Delta 10 as being something like a synthetic when it's literally not. There's this wide spread belief that it doesn't get you "as high" or that the "effect isn't as intense" and that is honestly such a dumb thing to care about. Mostly because there's not really an easy measure of that. As someone who literally legally grew marijuana when I lived on the west coast; I am no stranger to Delta 9 THC. I can safely say that I've been using Delta 8 and Delta 10 for everything from pain relief to recreational fun high times for the last like 4 years and the idea of it "not making me as high" has literally never been a problem. Especially not when there are gummies that contain 100mg and considering you can literally vape or smoke as much as you want. None of this accounts for the fact that many places where both are legal have started mixing the two. If you're curious what the difference between Delta 9 and Delta 8 is... it's the fact that Delta 8 is bound on the 8th Carbon rather than the 9th.
All that being said, this is still really funny.
The Eastern Band of Cherokee in rural western North Carolina recently legalized weed on their land and there are now several hundred people waiting in line to buy some on day one. The mountain folk demand weed
