Sorry I've been out of this thread for a while, but...ONE guy, who was on other drugs besides weed, jumps out of a window. That's your argument against it? Wow.

For someone playing the "you don't know my life" argument you sure as hell act as if you know the life of everyone else.

...no.

A) The guy who jumped out the window was not on any other drugs at all. His family and friends and medical records attest that he never exhibited any mental problems such as this before.
B) The guy who went insane and shot his wife was also on painkillers.
C) At least 70 people, including children, were admitted to the hospital/ER or contacted a poison control center in 1 year in Colorado due to overdosing (or an adverse reaction!) to marijuana/THC.
D) I have never once, not even a single time, said I was against the legalization of marijuana.
E) I simply have been arguing for more regulation and better educating of the populace.
F) You couldn't even get one detail correct about my arguments yet still ended your post with a sarcastic "wow"?
G) Wow.

I've been quite vocal about this issue and my involvement and have upon numerous occasions shared details and welcomed discussion. Any "you don't know my life" arguments are generally reserved for discussions regarding my private relations. Speaking of which, I already asked you to hug it out and you didn't even hit me back. Sad panda.

The kids and edibles thing is the primary reason I think it's dumb and unnessecary for weed to come in candy form. I don't get why it's necessary at all. You want to eat your weed that's fine. Why does it need to come in a cookie? Can anyone give me a reason why you can't just eat a regular cookie after ingesting in pill form or whatever? And don't give me the flavored alcohol thing. It's not analogous.

You know, personally, I tend to agree with you. There is really no need to make medibles appealing to children, other than the fact that they are sweet treats that are easily palatable to adults. However that said, I liken it to parents saying, 'No, no, that's DADDY'S juice!' when a kid grabs for your beer bottle that looks just like the all natural root beer soda you bought for said child. It's something that we should teach our children to resist and respect. Is that happening in every household? Of course not.

Doesn't make sense to me. The pot shops could even give you a regular cookie for every pot pill you buy.

This also ties into part of what I've been saying; they should sell these edibles in one dose sizes to begin with. I just don't like the idea of selling someone an entire cookie and telling the person to just eat one fifth of it at a time. It just doesn't make sense. Sell them five pills and say just take one pill at a time.

Maybe that's part of why the guy overdosed on two cookies. It's kind of hard to take the drug seriously when you're eating it in cookie form. Would the guy really have popped 10 pills into his mouth after the pot dude told him to only take one? I suppose it's possible but it just doesn't seem as likely.

Sure, but generally the kid is gonna think the beer is gross. He'll gobble that fuckin cookie though.

But still just one person, right? Do you have the toxicology report from his autopsy?

Ah.

How does this compare to previous years? Were any of them on anything else at the time? What percentage of the population is 70?

I did, actually. It was one dude. That's what the "wow" was for. One out of millions is an acceptable risk to me.

G) Wow.

Indeed.
