Excuse me, but I've been zeroing in on cannabis candies that are lookalikes of existing commercial candies

Yes and your against them being provided to adults.

First off, it's not necessary for the stores to let in kids and sell them candy directly ... someone of legal age will go in and buy it and then resell it. As happens now with things kids can't buy.

Yes, that happens with alcohol too. Should we ban it? Or maybe only certain flavors, for example other people have complained about hard lemonade or an alcohol/caffeine drink mix (which was forced off the market).

Or in places where pot is illegal the kids can just by it from some street dealer.

The smart thing is to stop selling to youths after a first offense until the store is sold to a cousin or brother-in-law or something. Then it becomes a new business with a new record.

I don't think that is a huge problem. But if you do, and you think its one that needs a big crackdown, you could support more severe penalties for first offenses.

Also if it is a problem its probably just as much of one with ordinary pot, or pot brownies etc

The idea that all of the retailers are going to be moral agents just doesn't describe reality.

They don't have to be, its mostly not in their self interest to try to sell to kids.
