At a recent concert in Texas, the band Slightly Stoopid lit up more than just the stage—they sparked a conversation. During their show, a band member used a high-powered laser to light a cannabis joint in front of the crowd, just as Texas lawmakers were actively debating a ban on hemp-derived THC products.
The viral moment caught attention across the internet and became a symbol of protest and cannabis culture colliding with outdated laws. The band’s flashy move wasn’t just a stage trick—it was a bold statement in a state where marijuana is still heavily restricted.
At the same time, Texas legislators are considering a bill that would ban popular hemp-derived THC products like delta-8 and delta-10. These are legal under federal law but have been under attack in several conservative states. Supporters of the ban claim safety concerns, but many view it as a way to stall cannabis progress.
Slightly Stoopid’s laser-lit joint was a reminder that cannabis culture is alive and growing, even in states with strict laws. The crowd cheered, phones flashed, and the band continued to perform—highlighting how far public opinion has moved, even if legislation hasn’t caught up yet.
Texas has legalized hemp, CBD, and other low-THC products, but recreational marijuana remains illegal. That hasn’t stopped cannabis brands, fans, and musicians from pushing boundaries and calling for change.
As debates over marijuana legalization and hemp regulation continue, actions like this concert moment help draw attention to the bigger picture: people want safe access to cannabis, and they’re ready to challenge outdated laws.
