Shaking my head at the thought process that would lead someone to believe that it's a good idea to put drugs in something which would call out to a small child; "Eat me" ... like gummy bears.

It’s almosy as if adults sometimes eat candy or cookies or other foods

There is some expert level sarcasm and shade being thrown in this thread.... I approve!

Ummm, yeah... I have no objection to legalized marijuana, but anyone with an IQ above room temperature can see that toddlers ingesting cannabis is probably something best avoided, and putting harmful (arguably lethal) substances in candies is going to have a very predictable outcome.

“Arguably lethal”


Lol. Reefer madness strikes again.

Lolol, it's the same thing as "Not all scientists agree on climate change. It's debatable."

From what I hear, pot engineering is a thing and they can grow this stuff with higher THC concentrations. Does this change the idea that you won’t test positive from second-hand exposure? After this vacation, I’m probably not going to visit any more places where this crap is legal.

The reference for "arguably lethal" is the previously linked possible poisoning death in Colorado. While there is some dispute in the medical community that the death was solely due to the cannabis ingestion, there are at least some who believe it was, and not without some fairly strong evidence. That's pretty much the textbook definition of "arguably". Regardless, only a fool would argue that small children ingesting cannabis would be completely harmless. See the previously linked article about children hospitalized due to accidental cannabis poisoning. As I said, I'm in favor of cannabis legalization. I don't think cannabis is evil, or that people who use it are evil. My opinion is not coming from a position of anti-pot hysteria. But it's quite possible to be in favor of adults having the freedom to partake in cannabis, and at the same time think that it's a really bad idea to package a substance that is harmful to small children, in a form that is attractive to small children to eat.



You can keep on yelling "REEFER MADNESS" if you like, but that just underscores the fact that you don't have an intelligent response.

Deadstick,

Good luck with that. Do you plan to stop flying domestically? As the greatest generation dies off and the voting populace becomes boomers, gen X, and mellineals the pot laws will loosen. I think the only people in my family that think pot should be illegal are my grandparents and none of us indulge currently.

My friend did tell me pot today is much more potent than even ten years ago. He also said pot smokers today are so pretentious. Kind of like a hipster coffee house crowd. He said it’s all about e-sig vaping oils and edibles. Nobody just rolls one the good ole fashion way anymore, at least on his circles

Neither of us have read the coroner’s report, and I’m willing to bet the only authorities who have said anything about cannabia poisoning are cops with no medical background. Feel free to correct me on that.


Also, did you hear that pharmaceutical companies are now packaging drugs with child friendly sweet flavors? One even has an LD50 orders of magnitude lower than cannabis! Get that dangerous dimetapp off the shelves!
