Chronic cannabis users are at risk of experiencing a horrifying new condition that is being reported at hospitals across the country. 'Scromiting,' doctors say, is becoming an all-too-familiar site at emergency rooms, with patients 'screaming and vomiting' as they turn up for help...'I've screamed out for death,' Chalfonte LeNee Queen, 48, told NPR after experiencing the terrifying illness. 'I've cried out for my mom, who's been dead for 20 years, mentally not realizing she can't come to me.'

"Of course the weed is a natural substance and can do no wrong..."

That argument has always floored me. Hemlock, cyanide, strychnine and nearly every other deadly poison is a naturally occurring substance (or at least derived from one).

Hmm. Maybe ingesting the wacky weed isn’t such a good idea after all.

People should just stick to drinking liquor. Nobody's ever puked their guts out and wound up in the ER from drinking too much.

Why do prohibitionists love throwing out fallacies when they don’t have to?

No state “rushed” to legalize cannabis. It’s just historically false. Why make such an statement?

Since most of the legal cannabis states became that way through voter initiatives you’re suggesting they wanted to make themselves into “screaming retching idiots”.

That people who abuse cannabis suffer consequences is no surprise. Too much of anything isn’t good for us.

“I never smoked pot thus never got good at Frisbee. My son doesn’t smoke either but is President of the Ultimate Frisbee club at his college.”

HAHAH.... Yeah, you haven’t caught him yet.

We have seen and treated cyclic vomiting syndrome for years It is well known to be caused by chronic marijuana use. Of course the pot is a natural herb that cures everything crowd refuses to admit it or change the behavior.
