this has got to hurt the "pot cures all crowd". Anyone else not surprised she developed mental problems after taking pot?

Nobody died from pot until the drug companies decided to make it safe.

Can anyone show she didn't have mental problems before "taking" pot?

She wasn't "taking pot."

I seriously doubt that. How can you be sure some stoner didn't drive off a cliff?

[minus_273]

she wasnt smoking it, she was using it as s drug. you take medicine dont you?

[Shion]

Seems like the woman had some major problems before the the drug therapy started. I wonder what else she was taking...

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

Dope kills.

Are you kidding? Rationalizing drug use is an art to them -- an addiction and a way of life, more than the drugs themselves.

This only makes them more hungry.

You put me in the mind of the grandmother of a friend of mine, who took him aside during a college break to express her hope that he'd never "shot weed."

Reefer Sadness.

"Anyone else not surprised she developed mental problems after taking pot?"

...

LOL! I was under the assumption pot, naturally grown and not tampered with man made additives already made pot smokers mental. It's why they smoke that stench to begin with, flee reality, another way to get lung cancer, etc. Ya know(sarc) the real world is much too scary for some over grown kids.

I would say that in this case diabetes accounted for all her helath problems.

[FormerACLUmember]

People die from marijuana pneumonitis and allergic reactions all the time. The demented potheads would have you believe that marijuana is as pure as the driven snow and wholesome.

[minus_273]

used "take" becasue you take medicine you dont smoke it and rarely have i heard anyone say eat medicine (as in magic brownies). What word would you have used?

[somniferum]

bump for later

[bigfootbob]

Sativex is loaded with alcohol. I'd wait until the inquest is finished. Yes, I am surprised at all the problems associated with this death.
