Outdoor grown might be worth looking into if you don’t like too much THC. Unlike indoor hydro, the constraints make it more difficult to get super high levels of THC.
The whole “nobody ever died from pot” argument seems very weak to me. It certainly is possible to overdose on pot, causing racing heart, major anxiety. Someone who has a weakened heart or other systems surely has died from that stress on the system.
But more importantly pot can reduce mental functionality. Combined with heavy machinery or other risk factors, people have definitely had deadly “accidents” that wouldn’t have happened without the pot.
Pot can make you just mentally hazy enough to conflate the fact that it’s impossible to consume the LD50 amount with the erroneous idea that no deaths were ever caused by pot use.
While the coroner might be incorrect about the cannabis toxicity in this case, it seems pretty clear that a person did die and they wouldn’t have if they didn’t consume a pot product.
oof, I just learned about this casually googling whether lining my nostrils with vaseline during dry winter nights was a bad idea…just glad I checked before swabbing my kids bloody-booger-makers.
That’s not even remotely clear. All we know is that someone is dead and that a coroner with basically no medical credentials said the ewuivalent of “they injected 23 Marijuanas right into their butthole skin.”
For all we know they could have been murdered. Poisoned with bleach. Got an infection. Thanks to this coroner’s ineptitude and judgemental attitude hindering the scientific method, we may never know.
I think there was at least one afterschool punk special, too… although it was a bit more even handed than the Quincy very special punk episode… I’m sure there are others I’m forgetting, but those are the 3 or 4 I’ve looked up for research, in terms of scripted dramas. There were TONS of punks on day time talk shows - Donahue, Oprah (early on), Sally Jessie Raphael, the one time that Geraldo got punched in the nose by brawling skinheads. I forget which shows GG Allin showed up on? Jerry Springer, maybe? And of course, who can forget the child psychologist Serena Dank who tried to profit off the punk panic in the 80s, showing up on Donahue, I think it was. OH, and not too few local and national news programs had specials on punks…
