I quit smoking pot 32 yrs ago. Smoking is toxic, carcinogenic and inconsiderate to others. I wish all smokers would switch to vape and better yet, chew. In a perfect world nobody would do drugs-we don't live in a perfect world! If she wasn't bringing in huge quantities for sale, I think she deserves no punishment at all. Personal use and not harming others. Coffee and booze are the same thing.
In the event that the ship starts to sink, will it be women and children first? Will crew members who are women be given priority rescue over passengers who are men? Will 50 and 60 year old women in life's departure lounge and one foot in the grave be given seats in life boats before young men in their 20s amd 30s?
Come get as drunk as humanly possible. Come to a place where most of the overboard incidents revolve around alcohol but you can still drink as much as you like and they'll even sell you a package so you don't even have to pay. But don't you dare use the evil heathen devilweed …. The hypocrisy has just got to stop . To hell with carnival
This is also because it is a prison offense in other countries. When a ship docks it must obey the laws inherit to the country. The signs stating that these foods were not allowed were clear. This nurse decided she knew better. Oops.
the majority of Carnival Cruise Line vessels are registered in Panama, with a few of their vessels registered in the Bahamas and Malta. Therefore, the laws of that specific country are what are followed while on the open waters under maritime law.
For all you "holier than thou" complainers saying drunks are more obnoxious, you might want to remember that Carnival and the port of Miami are required to follow FEDERAL law, not local law, and therefore had three choices, 1) Ignore the gummies thereby breaking the law themselves and facing the possibility of losing their license to operate 2) Turn the woman over to federal authorities or 3) Ban her for life.
Tylenol is stronger than Cbd 😂😂😂 CBD doesn’t do a damn thing lol! Only helps with mild back pain. But seriously Cbd doesn’t do anything at all anyone who thinks you can get high on it I’d love to make a hefty bet you won’t feel anything no matter how much you take. Ive done it many times and gave up because Tylenol and ibuprofen help way more than Cbd does. So for them to do this to her is so wrong man. Seriously what a waste of her time and money she didn’t do anything close to wrong.
They said CBD is a controlled substance, no its not and has not been its approved by United States law, and most state laws, its industiral derived Hemp. So carnival stating its illegal federal substance is full of it. Trump signed it into federal law making it legal
I think its crazy the Carnival Cruises banned her for life. Are we sure she didn't put up a fight there on the spot with these people? Usually people have money that go on these cruises. I can see the ship banning her from that particular cruise. But to get banned for life! Her and her family must have done something to turn these people off. Maybe a big fight, cursing etc. Lets face it. One spends $10 thou on a trip and to be told you cant go! Id curse. She certainly didnt say, oh thats fine, I'll just go away with my family. I dont see this happening this way. I bet she hollered and put up a fuss! I would for $10 thousand a trip.
so people are allowed to go to malls and steal thousands of dollars worth of stuff with no consequences and this lady gets banned for life for legal activities. Gotta love the backwards liberal bizarro world we all live in
Meanwhile they'll serve alcohol aboard the cruise 24/7! The hypocrisy is ridiculous! When are we going to get out of this 1930s and '40s mentality about cannabis? Every state that has medical cannabis has lower opioid rates and no one has ever overdosed on THC nor has anyone ever killed anybody in an accident from being high on THC! THC doesn't impair you like alcohol does! The worst you might do while driving high is drive a little under the speed limit
This is unjust and unfair punishment. Carnival is clearly using her as a “scapegoat” example to re-write their wrongs of their past. What was not mentioned in this article (which I have confirmed through someone I know who witnessed this at the Port) is that she was initially “flagged” for nail clippers in her carry-on bag. It was only when she was sent to “secondary” that the gummies were discovered. She reportedly and instantly agreed to have the gummies discarded without incident, but instead she was detained and kicked off the Cruise while her other family members were given the option to sail without her.
There are many others from Carnival’s past who have done much worse (even violent) onboard their sailings and gotten off less harshly and in some cases with no punishment. About six years ago onboard a P&O Cruise Ship which is also owned by Carnival, a young boy with autism bit an untrained youth counselor after being triggered as a defense mechanism. That boy and his adoptive grandparents were allowed to finish their sailing after being warned and scolded by the Ship’s Captain. It was five years later when the boy’s birth mother wanted to get married onboard a P&O Ship that the mother learned that her son was banned for life from all Carnival owned brands because of that incident.
Carnival has become way too draconian in enforcing their policies. Rules are rules but it’s clear that this woman is being used as a target. It is My hope that she will be vindicated and made whole with compensatory damages in tow as well.
No more carnival cruise for me & my family, from now on it will be Celebrity Cruise Line. I agree the way alcohol flows on cruises, & how carnival cruise is notorious for drunken fights on board, why didn’t they act like humans & throw them away. Why didn’t they just say it’s not allowed & move on. To ban her for life & then send her such a nasty letter is ridiculous, this captain is probably the type of person who leaves a litter of Golden-doodles in the woods to die, he should be embarrassed for signing that idiotic letter!!!
Even the public is so screwed up in the brain that they have been conditioned, like carpenters, everything is a nail. CBD is non-halucinating and let idiots get it in their heads!
Oh, but you can get blackout drunk, puke off your balcony and fall overboard, but heaven forbid you take a gummy, get the munchies and fall asleep in a deck chair!
Her gummy hadn't kicked in! We got a whole bag of chocolate on board this summer on a Med cruise out of Italy. The trick is you have to mix it in with other legal candies and nuts!
You are not allowed to bring it. It says that on the website and agreement you sign. It's legal here but other countries and ports it is not, and if something happens there carnival can't do anything. The lifetime ban is extreme BUT I feel it might be because how she reacted she got the ban.
I work with Medterra. They are a legit company around for years. Those particular gummies are THC-Free. This is ridiculous.

Rules are the rules.
If you dont like the rules, dont patronize the business.
This is downright discrimination.
Maybe for the better. probably avoided another poop cruise
No cruise ship for me. Green is good..😮😊
No sympathy, read the rules, if you're not sure then ask.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yeah. No gummies but are unlimited booze and unregulated gambling is good to go.
SMH
Her problem is that she tried Carnival & not Jesus

OMG CBD is literally everywhere
This is an excellent way for Carnival, the bottom feeder of cruises, to get much needed free advertising. Oh…. wait…
They didn't want to feed her.
They didn't want to feed her.
This bullying needs to stop! She obviously didnt think it was a problem. Smdh

Carnival sucks anyway, they did her a favor.

She got off easy.

I will never board Carnival.

Rediculous.

Attorney and sue!
This is absurd! Guess I won't be taking any cruises .
I was a whole “smoking section” on my cruise ship when I went to the Bahamas this year for my birthday!🤷🏽♀️🔥💨🍃

So glad the criminal was caught , can you imagine if this hard core cbd drug got in the wrong hands . Hahahaha What a Clown Cruise line.
Boycott carnival!
CBD are legal. This is ridiculous. I wouldn't sail on that cruise line…

How can this cruise line be this dumb?
I will honestly never go on carnival again after hearing this. Been on about 7 cruises with them but not any more.
They have alcohol flowing out of every faucet but you're not allowed to have legal gummies? Royal Caribbean it is for me❤
There's got to be more to the story. I find it hard to believe they held her for hours and the police got involved over CDB.
Oh, but you can get blackout drunk, puke off your balcony and fall overboard, but heaven forbid you take a gummy, get the munchies and fall asleep in a deck chair!

This is crazy! They could have easily explained the rules and asked her to throw them away. No one in the world knows all the rules.
