I always figured that we would eventually create a stronger version of marijuana that would be dangerous. We just can't leave stuff like that alone.

Are you in favor of alcohol continuing to be legal? Then you're a pro-drug lib too :-) Wine is biblicaly known as being good for the heart and spirit... and whining is known as to be the curse of the devil.

Another druggie, in need of help, does himself in.
Hopefully the Freeper druggies, who so desperately want to escape reality that they resort to illegal drug use, will get help before it's too late.

Something else caused that death, not marijuana.It doesn't sound like all other causes were ruled out first---it sounds like a government worker telling his bosses what he thinks they'd like to hear.

Pro-WOsD propaganda !
The last time anyone was able to demonstrate the "toxicity" of marijuana was when they fed cats 4 ounces of HASHISH per kilogram of body weight !
Died from smoking dope ? Utter BS !

I believe it is the opposite. If marijuana gets legalized, it will triple in strength.
But as long as dope is smoked, it will not be legalized. Not while tobacco is being made illegal. My guess is that marijuana will be legalized when they can get into a different form like drinking it. Forget Red Bull; try Red Bud!

Is that your response every time someone dies of alcohol poisoning?Almost. So that you are not confused, I'll let you know. If it were an alcoholic my response would be: "Sad, another alcoholic, in need of help, does himself in."

If that one isn't to your liking search the web for "drug abuse help." I'm sure that you'll find the help that you need.

Wasn't there some guy a few years back that died from drinking too much water?

Found it:
MATTHEW DIES FROM DRINKING TOO MUCH WATER
Apr 27 2002
A MAN collapsed and died from drinking too much water, an inquiry heard yesterday.
Matthew Davies, 32, drank several litres of water every day, unaware he was flushing away essential salts from his body.
The hearing was told he died from the rare condition of water intoxication.
Matthew's father, Gwilym, told the inquest: "He drank water in preference to tea or coffee. He drank water to excess and also drank a lot of orange juice.
"He was at home on the day he collapsed but he had not drunk any more water than usual."
Pathologist Donald Wayte said: "It is a very unusual case. He had drunk so much water, it had washed away essential salts from his body.
"He went into a coma and hospital scans revealed his brain had swollen."Blood was taken for tests and it was found to be diluted. It was concluded he was suffering from water intoxication."
Matthew, of Llandudno, North Wales, died in hospital.
The inquest, in Caernarfon, heard Matthew had been prescribed tablets a few days earlier which may have increased his thirst. A coroner recorded a verdict of death by natural causes.
Daily Record columnist Dr Sarah Brewer said water intoxication may be linked to a psychiatric condition.
She said: "Most of us could do with drinking a bit more water than we do just now.
"But a psychiatric condition can cause people to have the urge to drink more water than is good for them.
"What would be a fatal amount is hard to tell. It depends on many things including a person's build."
