Human history is riddled with drug use. It's only been the last 40 years that we've come up with these concoctions that can literally kill you in one dose. We've used morphine since the first world war but it wasn't fentanyl levels of toxicity.
To say that marijuana use is the cause of the uptick in deaths is literally the funniest thing I've heard this year so far.
Are they literally trying to repeat the 1920's-1930's reefer madness?
When you didn't think it could get anymore clown world, here we are!

Then these young healthy people dropping from strokes and heart conditions has been going on for since the 1960s?
Why don't they blame tobacco anymore for this sort of thing?

I never said opiods were not a massive depresent of the vascaler system. The first use, as we know now is opium, goes back centuries. The synthetic versions now are 1000 times more powerful than the poppy plant. It's a good thing, we can have massive surgeries being put out with propofol (killed Michael Jackson) and deal with pain with things like fentanyl.
Used properly these drugs are life saving, used inappropiately... death.

I’m sure it has nothing to do with processed foods, high fructose corn syrup, making things 5x as sweet as they should be, making things 10x saltier than they should be, fake fats… ect.
It’s the pot.
