Not really. Earlier this month a guy in Maine got drunk, tried to launch a firework off his head, and the explosion killed him. No one is blaming booze in his case, not even his poor mother who is busy trying to get Maine to reinstate their fireworks ban. Since no one blamed alcohol for causing the firework to blow…

Seriously. Not only do they take forever to kick in but it hits you like a brick when it does. It’s SO MUCH harder to navigate how much is just right/too much than with smoking. Get a little too high while smoking? Nbd, just skip the next couple rounds, sit back, chill, and wait for a little bit for it to wear down a…

i’m concerned about what you are implying right now.

According to the police report, he had no known mental health issues, nor a history of alcohol abuse or illicit drug use. And the sales clerk told him not to eat more, he just disregarded that when the cookie didn’t kick in within the hour.

The dose wasn't toxic. He didn't die from the amount of cannabis he died because he jumped off the roof.

Toxicity did not cause this death.

Seriously. And it takes awhile for that stuff to kick in too. You’re not going to feel it immediately the way you do when you smoke/vape it. That’s where people get into trouble with edibles, and then wig out because how were they supposed to know they shouldn’t have eaten half of the pan of brownies?

Fixed that for ya.

the only thing i’m at risk for when eating a pot cookie is being unable to leave my bed and watching too many nicolas cage movies. How do yall have so much energy

Ok, but I feel like there may have been some underlying mental health problems or at least certain personality traits that predisposed this guy to doing something like that. Just like if I got absolutely wasted I would never end up in a fist fight with someone at a bar, no matter how stoned I got I don’t think I’d…

Based on my, um, observations on eating too many pot cookies, I’m impressed this kid could get off the couch. Are we sure he wasn’t also on angel dust?

You know Faux News will be citing this for all eternity.

pro-tip: one someone tells you to take one piece of an edible, eat one fucking piece. THEY ARE NOT TRYING TO TRICK YOU

Dosage is what makes something toxic. Period.

I was also confused when I saw the first part of the video, and then I realized what was happening. And I recognized that interaction, because that’s the same interaction I’ve ever had with cops, because I am white.

You can call me Ernest Poppins.

I will take fecal matter (which is literally everywhere because people are gross) over brain eating amoebas every time.

These “officers of the law” have made up everything in this case, I am convinced of it.
