A 7-year-old Basalt girl accidentally ingested candy that was infused with edible marijuana Sunday and was taken to Valley View Hospital for treatment, according to police.

The girl’s mother is a maid at an Aspen hotel where there is a policy that food and beverages left behind in rooms can be taken home by the cleaning staff, according to Basalt Police Chief Greg Knott. The woman found a bag of nuts that also contained a chocolate ball the size of a large marble, he said.

Wow!!! My friend is a translator in Colorado. She does work for hospitals that have parent manuals asking parents to keep their edible marijuana hidden from their children. The entire parent manual assumes that parents use drugs as they would liqour.

They admit in the manuals that marijuana causes permanent damage therefore parents should try to have conversations with children “without any judgement”.

My friend was very disturbed by the whole thing.

Without any judgement? We aren't suppose to judge something that causes permanent damage?

Russia, Iran, and China are all population with serious drug problems. They are all slave nations. That is what they want to do to us.

Poppies are also natural, doesn't mean it is meant to go into our bodies.

Kind of like “All flesh is grass... smoke a friend today”??

That’s silly of course.

If someone could better worship God by means of smoking pot, that would be wonderful. Far be it from me to declare this impossible because I’ve never smoked pot.

And yet... something is lost if we scapegoat the creation. It was by expanding God’s “do not eat” to “also do not touch” that Eve made an opening for the serpent’s lie.

She was already stoned.

I’m surprised that you’re the only one who has come close to noticing this.

But seriously, folks are getting careless with this stuff. Leaving pot-laced food around where someone can unknowingly consume it as a normal edible really could (and should) be banned.

Ukraine is to Europe, what Mexico is to the US, in terms of drug trafficking.

They are also a major money laundering hub. All nations involved in the government complicit drug trafficking, have addiction epidemics.

“Europe’s Dirty Drugs Secret

Not currently available on BBC iPlayer
New Drug Frontiers

Stacey Dooley travels to Ukraine on Europe’s far eastern edge to investigate the struggle to keep drugs out of the UK. Stacey reveals that drug cartels from South America have been using Ukraine as a transit hub to smuggle cocaine into western Europe. To uncover why cocaine shipments are taking this 2,000-mile detour, Stacey visits a new frontline in the war against international drug trafficking - the port of Odessa on Ukraine’s Black Sea coast. Ukrainian officials show her the tricks traffickers use to hide drugs within cargoes - inside anything from industrial furnaces to excavated pineapples. But she soon learns from a port worker and a former drug trafficker that Ukrainian customs officials are notoriously open to bribes to get cargoes through.

Stacey also discovers that, because the drugs smuggled into Ukraine are too expensive for most local drug users, some are resorting to horrific homemade substitutes. Perhaps the worst is ‘crocodile’, so called because it rots the flesh of users and turns it scaly. Stacey meets some young addicts as they make a batch from bleach, petrol and tablets bought at the chemist. Learning they have only months to live, Stacey is also shocked to hear that police have recently found ‘crocodile’ in the UK.”

There could be degrees of negligence recognized with this. Generally speaking, felony-flation is a very bad legal philosophy.
