Question by Timothy Monkeyballs: Why do liberals advocate the legalization of dangerous street drugs like Marijuana?
My cousin overdosed on Pot. He was 19 years old, & a senior in high school. He was always a favorite in our family, & everyone loved him. He was a football player, & an active member in our church.

Well, 1 day during his senior year, he went to a party. Some liberal parents had gone out of town, & left their child unattended (why am I not surprised by the irresponsible parents) so he decided to throw a party. When my cousin arrived, the other kids were drinking, smoking, & behaving very poorly.

Since most of the kids were passing around a marijuana cigarette, my cousin felt a little bit out of place. At first, he refused to smoke. But the kids kept putting peer pressure on him by saying things like, “just take a puff”, “all the cool kids are doing it” & “nobody has ever died from smoking marijuana.” Finally, my cousin succumbed to the pressure, & he took a puff.

Immediately he went into convulsions. Then he stopped breathing. Finally, his heart gave out, and he passed away :(

Best answer:

Answer by Pfo
Shenanigans, you can’t overdose on weed. If you tried to, you’d most likely fall asleep before it killed you. You would die of asphyxiation before you could ever smoke that much. Marijuana alone will never kill you, even if eaten or injected. Perhaps your cousin had an allergic reaction, it sounds like it. I’m sorry to hear that, assuming its true.

I’ve seen this post before, several months ago.

Cut and paste of a completely BS urban legend.

Read http://www.drug-overdose.com/marijuana.htm Before you slam their conclusions, take note of the fact they are a drug treatment center and more likely to make drugs look worse than they are than better.

Alcohol overdose has killed far more people. maybe we should outlaw alcohol and legalize pot.
