Heard that BHO or buying butane is now a federal crime.. Buying anything over two bottles will raise a flag. Guy at the hydro store said his friend a town over just got bopped and is looking at a mandatory five years in federal jail!!!!!!??? Already started serving...

This happened as of Tuesday I believe..


Any info!? I just got my vaccume setup fuuuuck

I had no idea! Ignorance is bliss.. Apparently the dude got a case of vector only to be put in cuffs leaving the place.. Sounds like store owner was strong handed intobasically setting up a sting for his products or face imprisonment himself

Weed is federally illegal everything to do with the plant is federally illegal so of course BHO is too. And really how is buying butane going to raise flags it's not like Sudafed where you need to get it from a pharmacist and show ID for them to run through a computer....

Just don't get caught and you'll be OK. :bigjoint:

Far be it from me to correct anyone. But this may be along the lines with "intent" meaning "intent to manufacture or ... butane hash oil", which can be a violation in any state without a license. They may opt to control the butane sales to a certain number of bottles but this would depend on the state and legality status.
Just remember that if someone is buying a whole case, what the hell else are they using it for? Besides, most police are cracking down on it not because of the hash oil itself but rather the damages it causes. In our state of Washington, a former mayor was burned in a house/apt explosion because idiots (who seems flood the Youtube channels with these recordings) don't know what they are doing or even bother practicing common sense.

Rookies to this should read up more on such methods and not flood the internet. Sure its a way to Not do this but lets be realistic: don't get high and think you can methodically and logically function. A to B to C when high becomes A to F to D.

Butane , aside from dab torches. It's used in many other applictions. Portable welding so to speak. In tight places or underwater.. Welders usually use propane when it's not monile. Plus cooking and what not.

Like green stick said. It can be more prevention to blowing up homes and people.

Welding uses Inert gases.......the gases are used for nothing more than to create an "atmosphere" around the weld puddle to prevent the weld from pulling in nitrogen from our atmosphere and causing porosity. I think what your thinking of are portable welders, where they sometimes use propane as a fuel source for the generator that powers the welder.

It wouldn't take very many BHO 'mishaps' in my town for the cops to get real serious real fast. I live in Colorado, and there's lots of laws against blowing down your trim indoors, in private residences, in multi family dwellings, without proper certifications, with proper safety great, using improper/dangerous equipment (whose fucking genius idea was it originally to use glass tubes for pushing flammable gas through at high pressure, anyway?!).

Haha my guess is that it was a stoner? :lol: On the flip side of this, I feel like if folks can do this in a controlled pace, no frills and acts of
Stupidity. Your high can wait, grab a beer (or two....tall ones) wait for your dab to just 'cook' down in a little bit of ethanol just put in prior to blasting. If a hotplate can be used outside to keep your water boiling,
By all means do so safely. I also heard the ethanol just puts ease in the worry of butane being stuck in there.

glass blowers use propane and liquid oxygen for their torches

I invested in the equipment a lil over a year ago. Well worth every penny. Have a small 6x6 room just for it. Obviously, the fire Marshall didn't inspect it, but I tried to best to follow the codes. Now it's as easy as putting material in column, open a few valves, come back 30 minutes later. Close those valves, open another and turn on a vacuum pump. Little to no gas get into the air because it's all recovered before then.

I'm a perfectly functioning stoner. I can be high all day and not be inhibited. But then again I'm not like most people and don't recommend it unless you can handle it!

Also I've heard a rumor this year that the feds are doing a temporary lift off the federal ban against marijuana until 2016? Any know if this is true? I have a friend in nevada that says they have a dispensary in the middle of las Vegas. But Nevada is supposed to be no tolerance.. Any one got info on this?

Yes this is true although there was recently a video of police barging in a santa ana dispensary, terrorism at a local level. This doesn't mean that local areas can't shut down these places. All we have is a police video doing this to a dispensary but suppose the dispensary did not follow protocol and they wanted to raid it to prove a point (which is very
Pointless). Now the idea behind this is if the Federal Government may hold off this priority, there is nothing holding off police from raiding other mmj stores saying this is a federal offense. The loop hole exists for all mmj stores since it still a federally illegal substance, basically the police make it a choice whether or not to "bust a mmj store". What is
Stupid is how they decide to make the decision: "we need to uphold the law" " its still illegal" ...I could say this all day and never agree with the outcome, the first and foremost thing to do is to make it legal and tax it on a FEDERAL level, which means that people who get in trouble will be able to uphold in a court of law and be able to contest this. The federal policy needs to just change because loopholes need to become less obvious and more clear. None of this Ban shit, which they could lift at any point they want. States will legalize and work to a majority to vote on legalization and taxation in perhaps 5 years. About ten years ago this was said to be happenin in 15-20 years. So far we're on the right track, someone just needs to keep the ball rolling in other states in the domino effect. Funny how this pioneer effect works spreading from east to west then west to east.

If they legalize it it better be completely 100% legal. Non of the bs they pulled in Colorado with all the laws and regulations. Sure it's legal. But you can't grow your own. Until it gets put on a bill to be passed as 100% legal my vote will be no.

And I'm a 215 patient. I need it to sleep. But with the ways the laws are now I can grow 25 girls and still be in my script. I'm to poor and broke to buy from a dispensary @ $50+ a gram for flower. I can grow a few pounds to get me threw the year. So unless it gets put up to be passed as 100% legal I will vote no because my script allows me to grow 25 untaxed. It cost me $150 this year and $90 next year.
