A doctor said 'kids' think they are just smoking marijuana, but tests show fentanyl.

Families torn apart after teen sons were driven to suicide by weed

It is thought that fentanyl has been mixed with marijuana flowers and THC gummies to increase the intensity of the high, and comes amid a wave of marijuana legalizations across the country that has sparked competition over who can get the most potent strain of the drug.

'The marijuana they may be used to from their childhood is not what we're dealing with now. We’re dealing with an almost different ballgame of potency.'

The THC concentration — the major psychoactive part of cannabis — rose more than 200 percent from 1995 to 2015.

Zach Corona, 13, on life support after he smoked a weed vape which also contained the opioid fentanyl ....had 'no idea' why her son had been left fighting for his life — until doctors cut off his clothes to find a vape pen laced with deadly opioid fentanyl, along with marijuana.

After waking from the coma over two weeks later, the 13-year-old claimed that he had been given the vape by a group of children, who made him smoke it in front of him.

Zach Corona, 13, (pictured) flatlined in the hospital and was ‘left brain damaged’ after smoking a marijuana vape laced with fentanyl. A Washington doctor said parents should be made aware that today’s marijuana is totally different to what they might have smoked as teenagers.

Another “gift” to America from China and Mexico. Honorable mention goes to the open border policy of the Biden Administration.

Might just as well put this entirely on Bidens doorstep as well as Congress. hey’re all guilty for sitting on their hands regarding securing our border.

IMO They’re going after our kids in a big way.

We have one group going after our kids with “Transition” drugs and “Mutilation” surgeries and now another going after our kids with “Spiked” Weed.

These parents need the Hell slapped out of them. As a responsible parent I say to them, YOUR sick perverted fantasies should not be taken out on YOUR children.

Right the weak minded,careless,reckless ones, back in the day the weak, careless, reckless did not survive long, many died from accidents, carelessness, recklessness, animal attacks, Indian attacks you name it..and only the smart ones lived. Same principle applies.

China is conducting a stealth war on the USA, and we are letting them.

Try to imagine all the young girls not knowing or caring that they are in the early stages of pregnancy and are smoking this poison regularly. When their kid is born brain damaged and labeled “autistic”, the politically correct thing to do is to blame the vaccines.

My dad, a smoker, warned us kids back in 1958, NOT to smoke any cigarettes given to us by someone else. When asked why he said “You never know what is in them!”

So at the young age of 76, I have never smoked.

There are state regulation that require batch testing to insure the products that are sold is what is described on the label. “It is thought” is not sufficient evidence to against a legally licensed pot store in any state that its legal. State seal on every package, just like at the liquor store to prove compliance with the state (TAXES).

The adulteration of the drugs happens AFTER they are purchased OR they are purchased illegally.

Do you get your liquor from the liquor store or do you buy it from some random guy that brews it in a copper radiator still in his basement?

These are some murderous people putting fentanyl into marijuana.

There is a lot more to dissect here. Drug abuse is rampant, weed legalization in some places has led to permissiveness in other aspects of American life. The weed itself is specifically engineered to be extra potent causing mental and emotional problems. And more.

But the specific rise in fentanyl use is directly tied to the war on prescription opioids in my opinion. People harmed themselves with oxy, but at least they knew the dose they were taking. Government went to war with doctors and drug companies and the addicts and opioid-dependents turned to the cartels. And now there is so much and so easy to smuggle fentanyl into the country these pushers sprinkle it into everything - either to get people hooked to come back for more, or as a weapon of mass destruction.

Obviously this was not purchased legally by a licensed dispensary with lot tracing all the way back to the grow house. In any case the kid was too young to legally purchase legal weed - assuming it is legal in his state/territory. He had to have purchased it from the black market or otherwise had it given to him by someone...

Just reefer/fentanyl madness. Someone’s agenda. Someone’s propaganda.

> they’re going after our kid left and right <

That is the central point. Sure, parents need to step up. But I had the best parents in the world. And I still did stupid things. But back then it was no worse than knocking off a six-pack in the park with some friends.

Today it’s different. The beer company wasn’t out to kill me. But as you noted, the drug manufacturers are out to kill our kids. They just don’t care. And darn near every kid who goes to a party is vulnerable.

China wants, among other things, revenge for the Opium Wars. It’s part of their design to destroy western civilization.
