Has weed killed anybody?

Actually the counterarguement there would be that alcohol/cigarrettes are the gatewaydrug right? Isn’t that where it starts?

I don’t know anyone who has smoked weed BEFORE they have ever smoked a cigarrette or had alcohol.

I don’t know about it hurting anyone but I know that it is REALLY REALLY bad for your body and you could die from it if you use it to much

Layashea, this may sound disrespectful but the gateway drug theory is a load of crap. The only way that cannabis is related to your father’s situation, is by being illegal and as such getting your father involved with dangerous people. Don’t blame the drug for your father’s lack of self control, that’s just a scape goat.

not directly. but- my dad started out with weed. he’s done about everything, and he does meth now. im pretty sure he’ll never be an actual person now.. there’s no way to get him back. im sure he will die- im sure his kidney’s and liver are gone. and he probably has diseases from needle’s he’s used for shooting up. IT ALL STARTED SOMEWHERE.

No. there has been ZERO reported deaths caused by weed, there has been 200 reported death on aspirian hahah!

[take a look at my questin I need answers<3]

um no… you cant die from smokind weed… there may be a tiny chance like less tehn 1% chance… but you cant even overdose on weed inless you smoke twice your body weight.

Hell no I smoke. and people I no do the god father that mean smoke a blunt size of a surgard and they just b stone nt more

Nobody has overdosed on Weed, that so far has been established. All you really get that is bad from smoking weed is lung cancer, which you get from smoking anything really.

If you don’t want the cancer, you could try hash cakes or vapourize it.

Some people could have died doing other things while high on weed. They could be riding their bmx bikes and get hit by a car because they weren’t totally aware of their surroundings, or some stupid accidents like that.

Also, like cigarettes, you will eventually die from smoking out your lungs.

I’m pretty skinny should I worry about smoking too much the weed if I want to try it? (I’m not sayin I want to try, but I could if I wanted, but I doen want to die from the weed just for fun.)

the only way to die from pot is if you smoke more then your body weight which is pretty hard, an im not sure if thats true but thats what I was told so

No, cannabis has never killed anyone, it’s even hard for scientists to kill rats with cannabis.

Amblessed, please stop spreading this garbage. A state of addiction is reached when people are unable to stop themselves from using a substance, if I smoke a joint twice every month, that would register as an addiction with you according to your definition. Which is bollocks.

According to the US Government’s own research, the lethal dose of marijuana is at least one-third your body weight, consumed in fifteen minutes. If it is smoked, about half of the active ingredient is lost in sidestream smoke, so you would have to smoke about two-thirds of your body weight in marijuana, in about fifteen minutes. There has never been a recorded lethal overdose in humans from the use of marijuana in any form.

Some people can be allergic… so I guess its possible.

there is no record of anyone dying from marijuana overdose. so no, it didn’t happen.

Can you die from a marijuana underdoes?

I highly doubt it.

NO! there has never been a death from weed

lol dont listen to what people tell u, its all misleading information you need to do your own research and see for urself

These are some of the comments I have copied from a forum

-pharmaceuticals are known to kill more people than illegal drugs

-marijuana is the number 1 cash crop in the world it serves as a natural medicine and has many other uses thats why they prohibited it so big companies can make more profit thanks to “bad journalism”

-can also help aids patients, aids diminishes appetite have them smoke a joint and they regain their appetite counteracting the illness

-no one can die from smoking cannabis and has been no known deaths compared to everything else including alcohol, tobacco, etc..

I myself have asthma and smoking opens up my airways making it easier to breathe with no side effects when medically legalized in my state I look foward to becoming a patient for prescription marijuana. 12 states have already legalized it along with other countries in the world and more following my job is to educate people that are not aware of the plants uses

re-legalize!

-I did most of my research through websites, books, magazines, and the news norml.org high times magazine etc..

• theres more to it than just getting high and I believe legalizing it would make this a better world to live in

-God bless the whole crop!

• and for people that dont smoke, you dont need to smoke it to support it

-all the better reason for the government to legalize.. couple reasons why it should be legalized: -will be removed from black market and stop empowering gang members -medical reasons -would be sold like alcohol, remember alcohol was once prohibited too (in stores away from children, have to be 21+) -would be a law that you cant drive while intoxicated on weed -prison population would lower (prisons are overcrowding with nonviolent offenders) -keep patients from being convicted -would provide millions of jobs for people -would make us an independent country (fuel, etc.., debt free america)

people with an addiction (including hard drugs) shouldnt be thrown in jail, they need help theres more people in jail with mental illnesses than there are in mental institutions

the list goes on

• the War on Drugs is a failure, its a war on its own people. policies need to be changed we pay billions in taxpayers money to keep the war going and neither side is winning thats just a waste of our tax money I wonder what they do with all that money.. those greedy bastards just sell drugs back onto the street, you can even check urself on that there was a time when there was a cia operation transporting drugs overseas into america the government also provided Rick Ross with plenty of heroin to go around, course making money from it

the truth must be exposed, theyre dirty work must stop!

-Of course we can do something about it, we all just need to unite screw the federal government remember slavery? if no one stood up im pretty sure it would still be going on people were tortured, beaten, killed and thrown in jail but that didnt stop them standing up for their rights eventually slavery was abolished same with alcohol prohibition eventually became re-legalized

• its like theres some kind of conspiracy going on I sense the government is up to no good and trying to control us. credit cards, money, and now they have chips that can be implanted in skin for uselful reasons but if in the wrong hands well were pretty much fuct they hiding the truth from us its dangerous to be right when the government is wrong they got theyre privacy but we dont. they want to know everything were doing on our leisure time

get up stand up!

• marijuanas not anti-establishment because its illegal, its illegal because its anti-establishment

all facts stated have been double-checked and confirmed want to learn more? norml.org americandrugwar.org hightimes.com lets all make this a better place to live in!

May be possible - it’s no doubt killed a lot of ambition and dreams one once had - some info: Marijuana can be both emotionally and mentally addictive. Once an individual becomes addicted to marijuana it develops into part of who they believe themselves to be. Avoiding their friends who do not use, the addict will gravitate to others that do. Marijuana is a topic that is always on their mind, whether it be thinking about the next time they will be able to get high or where their going to get their next sack. When someone is addicted to marijuana eventually their friends and the people close to them only know how they act when their stoned because they no longer do anything without first smoking. Their constant abuse is due to the misconception that marijuana is what they need to solve their problems. Sometimes addicts will take their stash with them wherever they go, just in case an opportunity arises and they are able to take a couple hits. They may even go through several dealers in order to make sure they always have a constant supply of marijuana - For assistance Call 1-800-405-8409: http://WWW.marijuanaaddiction.info/ A state of addiction is reached when people habitually or obsessively surrender themselves to a substance or behavior.
