I'm high on marijuana RIGHT NOW!!

Dabs...edibles..oils..that stuff should be for medicinal purposes only not available to the public...way too strong in my opinion...just sell the leaf and make some brownies or cookies the old school way.

Hey. In the beginning we had some quarks. But really, they've got that all worked out. ( and yes we are the first state to have a RMJ related death) Colorado got that together really quickly, and now two years later we are seeing that money put to good use; fixing our streets, our waterways, and going back into monies towards tourism.


And yes it really is nice to just hit up the corner store!

You guys had a RMJ related death? How did that happen?

Of course intoxication is the issue, not specifically RMJ. There have been a few deaths in CO that they've (mostly opponents) tried to associate with pot, but there were other factors. One idiot college kid got jumped from his hotel balcony and the coroner listed "marijuana intoxication" as a factor. One woman was shot by her husband who was hallucinating after eating edibles and taking prescription drugs. Another dude shot himself and his parents blamed it on edibles. Pot may have enabled these imbalanced people to do these things (and prescription drugs, other drugs and/or alcohol would likely have produced the same results), but certainly didn't cause it.

Is there a case in CO I haven't heard of where RMJ itself was specifically causal? I haven't heard of one.

THC overdose. Usually from dabbing. ERs are seeing much more of this in Colorado.

Pardon my lack of knowledge, but what is dabbing?

Dabs is a concentration that goes 10 steps beyond the proces of making Hash. ( which is just the THC Chrystal's, called Tricombs,crushed into a thick substance). Dabs are the crushed Tricombs,rolled and heated to create a thick oily substance( that is nearly pure THC.)

Dabbing is smoking that stuff through a vaporizer pen, or on top of your pot.

I think I smoked some of that on New Years Eve 2001. shit was crazy.

So awesome being able to just hit the corner store.

It really is. I don't think I'll get over how great it is to be able to do that instead of meeting up with some drug dealer.

Once. I did some Dabs ONCE! Never again!! I'll just smoke buds, thank you!!
Cause yeah.. super crazy.. and I was rather THC tolerant then too!

I took one hit when a dispensary was doing that for free (ironically for Mother's Day). Just one hit and I could barely walk out to the car. No, I wasn't driving...I never ever smoke and drive. But that stuff was crazy strong!

My place did the same at some point, RS. I couldn't stop coughing.

The wax sample I got at my place is very strong as well; have used it just as a topper, but damn - when my back is screaming as it's been lately, that and Indica (whether oil or bud) sure do make a difference. The CBD too.

Get with the program, California! Hope 11/8 brings at least that bit of good.

Same here, Hedo. Hope the bill in AZ passes.

In I think it was around 1964 my the family was on the road and Pop saw a guy weaving all over the road and said, "That guy's stoned!" Funny guy... stoners don't weave, drunks do!

high people just drive REALLY slowly (if at all), squinted eyes barely above the steering wheel. smile as big as the wheel itself.

Reminds me of this one time I left the bar with this girl to go on a smoke ride. I had to buy a single can of beer to go bc we didn't have a bowl or anything. So anyway after she gets me super stoned, she tells me I can't come over to her place bc her boyfriend is there (first I'd heard of any boyfriend all night) so I'm left to drive the 20 miles home with a perma-smile so wide I felt like I looked like the girl in the Black Hole Sun video. I set the cruise to 2 under the speed limit, felt like the longest damn ride home ever!!

Yeah, the dabs make me cough too, feels like a toddler sitting on my chest.
I used to go dabba dabba doo, but now I am a lightweight.

If people want to be idiots, they will. Deny them dabs and strong edibles and they will just chug a 12 pack of Busch Light or a bottle of Madd Dog or cheap ass Kamchatka vodka. Is that really any better? Hell no!
Amusing story:
When we were in highschool my wife literally thought Kamchatka was called Kaminatcha vodka because that's what I called it and it's close enough that when she only gave the bottle a cursory glance it looked close enough to pass.
She thought it was the best name ever and would always say it nice and loud, "I want some of that comin' at cha vodka!" lol
This lasted for basically the entire summer between her junior and senior year, and we must have been in our cups 6 or 7 times with her shouting "comin' at cha!"

Thanks for that info. Sounds like that some powerful shit.

It can be. I did a dab once that got me more fucked up than I had ever been in my life for about two hours. And I used to drop acid in high school, lol. It was awful. I lost all the feeling in my face and couldn't tell if I was even talking or not. It really freaked me out (didn't help that I was in public). I have done dabs that were fine too though, and i do regularly buy budder from my dospensary with no probs. It just depends on how it's made I guess. Beware of dabs from strangers, it the moral of this story, lol. It seemed safe enough, as it was at a dispensary booth at a weed market, but no... that shit took me out with just one puff, lol, and I am hard to take out. Weird thing is that my friend did one too with the same stuff. He was fine.
