    Yea, is there a reason the Cannabis fatalities are highly questionable, or is it just popular to say "Please let us smoke weed, it's not harmful"?

    I always found it odd the side-effects of anti-depressants are Suicidal thoughts.

    From depressed to suicidal, definitely an upgrade huh.

    All drugs do is bind to the receptors that accept certain transmitters, so that is why once the effects wear off, the receptors open up and grab up all the free "I hate myself" neurotransmitters running around (and often why people are even more depressed after the drugs wear off).

    Can't fix a problem unless you fix the source.

    do you know how much you have to ingest just to reach overdose levels?

    The entire chart looks questionable.

    It's more feasible to die from a water overdose than marijuana. And yes, you can die from "water intoxication."

    As far as marijuana, like most substances you can ingest, it is possible at extraordinary amounts. Problem is, it's pretty much physically impossible to ingest an amount sufficient enough to cause an overdose.

    Because overdosing is the only way to die?

    And no, being that I don't believe in smoking weed or any sort of recreational drug, I don't know how much you have to ingest.

    It's not like I'm not weed-friendly. I think legalizing it would be a great idea. I just won't be smoking it myself, nor would I want my children exposed to it either. I believe in responsibility, so I could give two shits what someone else wants to do to themselves so long as it doesn't present an immediate danger to myself or those around me.

    This all depends on what counts as a "drug death". Given the numbers for alcohol, it's probably safe to say that they are including deaths in which the drug played a reasonably large factor. Getting baked and getting behind the wheel is never a good idea, for instance. Overdosing isn't the only way a drug can be harmful. Impaired judgment, reaction time, motor control, in the short term; neurotoxicity in the long term. So on, so on. Let's not start some propaganda slinging match between the LEGALIZEIT crowd and the moralists please.

    Smoke wise it's about 120,000 hits within an extremely short period of time iirc. At that point, I'm pretty sure most people would have passed out due to lack of oxygen from the smoke before they could get close to overdose levels, lol.

    Eating it required like pounds of it. I've almost overdosed just from eating two 1/3lbs burgers, much less a pound of anything.

    Edit: Yeah. It was mentioned previously that fungus can grow in your lungs if you smoke poorly maintained marijuana, which can lead to death. Could chalk that up as a marijuana death. Though personally I don't know the legitimacy of this story.

    And that was my point. Do these count ODs as well as induced fatality or just one or the other?

    Just the other. There's never been a single documented case of a marijuana OD.

    Yeah, because driving 5 under and obeying every traffic law out of paranoia is really fucking dangerous.
