    Ever heard of The Onion?
     
    "The Daily Currant is an American satirical news blog that focuses on politics, technology, and entertainment.<sup>[1]</sup> A number of its satirical stories have been taken for true news reports by press.<sup>[2]</sup>
    The Daily Currant is a competitor to The Onion. According to Quantcast, the site garners over 1.5 million page views a month.<sup>[3]"</sup>
     
    You phsycally can't ingest enough weed to OD, you would asphyxiate first.
     
  2. Ok so then it's bullshit. Thanks you guys :)
     
  3. Now really isn't a great time to test people's reading comprehension skills. Just when we have had a peaceful and successful day one for legalization people are repeating that crap on twitter and even though it is a hoax, now there are a decent sized swath of lesser minds who are going to spread that trash. Shame on them.
     
  4. Simply THE biggest load of propaganda bullshit article.. Shame on who ever published this..
     
  5. what a stupid fucking website
     
  6. that website is 100% legit. I'm also glad that I read that article "Sarah Palin Arrives in South Korea for Mandela Memorial." I would have never known
    \t 
     
  7. Everyone should know its satire from the tone of the article. But the kicker is the use of the name Dr. Jack Shephard which is the main character from lost. Not to mention if 300 ppl died anywhere in america this would be on every network.
     
  8. Marijuana overdose is completely possible. And no this is not sarcasm, though I'm sure it will be labeled as trolling. I know first hand what marijuana does to the heart rate. It would be nothing but denial to say that smoking too much mariijuana can't give someone a heart attack, especially people at risk factors for heart problems.
     
  9.  
    but the amount you'd need is ridiculous. Its all relative.
     
    Tell me something you cant overdose on?
     
  10. Then why hasn't it happened ? 😏

    The amount you need is ridiculous? When my tolerance was low, my heart rate would push atleast 150 bpm off of a .2/gram bong hit. Of course now I know that if I don't want to get that stoned, then I need to not hold in the hit long, and to not burn as much bud (smaller hit) but what about a novice with an underlying heart condition who doesn't know how to smoke properly? Which is why I believe that the zero deaths from marijuana is pro cannabis propaganda.
     
  12. [quote name="ReturnFire333" post="19273331" timestamp="1388760042"]The amount you need is ridiculous? When my tolerance was low, my heart rate was pushing atleast 150 bpm off of a .3/gram bong hit.[/quote]I dont know about that theyve given animals like guinea pigs thousands times the amount a human could physically consume and the worst that happened is they slept for three days straight. If youve got heart problems thats a whole different thing isnt it although it sounds like youre more likely to die from a heart attack exercising then smoking weed
     
  13. true story .. I'm dead right now. :hippie:
     
  14. Well I do know about it, it was my heart rate that happened to me, so. I don't lap up pro cannabis propaganda like "Zero deaths ever!" "Smoking cures cancer even though cannabis smoke contains tar and carcinogens!" lots of ignorance and denial out there in the cannabis debate, on the anti side and the pro cannabis side.
     
  15. so I'm not supposed to resort to name calling, or I risk a citation....
     
     
    well fuck it, I'm rolling the dice.....
     
     
     
     
     
    A. learn what constitutes killing someone ....
     
    B. learn a little science, even if you have to go back to high school.
     
    C. learn to use Google

  16.  
    can you share a link that shows someone had a heart attack as a direct result of smoking weed?
    maybe my googling skills suck, because i couldn't find any info.

    So because google doesn't have it, it has never happened. Amazing logic right there :\\  Most people won't tell their doctor about marijuana use, and the person is dead anyways so he can't really tell the doctor he was stoned. And seeing as weed stays in the system for up to 30 days, there isn't any way I see of being able to tell if the weed was smoked 2 weeks ago or 2 hours before death.

    wouldn't it be in the news or something if someone died of a heart attack from smoking too much weed?
     
    I'm assuming that you got your heart attack info from some reliable source..
     
    care to share it?
