actually, I would agree cannabis is not a drug. It's a kind of plant. The cannabanoids are the drugs, that are easily extracted.
The same way the cocaine is the drug, not the plant it's extracted from.
If we label a plant with medicinal or psychoactive chemicals within it as a drug mimosa trees are also drugs. We just only refer to the plant when we buy weed, we never say "hey man do you have a 20 spot of THC"?

I'm glad you agree it's the substance that is a drug than, and not the plant that contains it.

Right, but the plant is the vessel...isn't cannabis with no thc a different subspecies?
Yea, but guarana isn't a drug, nor is a coffee plant, nor is a coca plant, nor is a poppy. Even industrial hemp has THC as far as anything I've ever read. I'm just saying quite literally a plant can't be a drug, but there can be drugs in plants. That's why herbal remedies can still be extracts, because you're after chemicals within those plants you can use.
