this isn’t current but i just read about it… 24 people ‘overdosed’ on free medibles handed out at music festival. the people weren’t responding to naloxone so cops tested the candies and figured out it was only THC… people spreading warnings on instagram saying they’re laced with opiates/heroin :joy:

I am spending the next 3 to 5 months in South Carolina.
It is much colder than my home in SoFla, but the last frost date in my temporary neck of the woods here is today!
However, unlike FL, SC has yet to legalize any interpretation of MMJ.

Backwater ignoramuses dominate the political scene here in SC.

Exhibit A citation:

South Carolina Senator Tom Corbin, who voted against Davis’s bill on Thursday, recounted the time his family vacationed in Humboldt County, Calif. “Every corner was just flooded with people with backpacks that were obviously homeless,” he said. “Boys you see what happens when you get hooked on pot?” he asked his sons. “You lose everything you got including your house and your possessions.”

Three people have tested positive for brodifacoum, a lethal anticoagulant often used as rat poison.

friggin disgusting, it’s almost as if they’re intentionally trying to kill people. opioid deaths must be declining so they’re finding new methods of population control :cry:

Wow.
Forty years ago I went to see this movie at the theater.
Smoked it up in my car before going in.

Scary how quickly time passes.

This made my skin crawl!

Shocking and absolutely outrageous!
Smelling marijuana?
This is the bogus pretext they used to justify
their abuse of an innocent citizen?
Wow.

still employed by NJ taxpayers?
