THC is NOT a toxin
You can get nausated if you get a big hit of high grade pot
but that is not overdose. I have personally become sick and dizzy for 10 min or so after a bong hit of Maui some 25 yrs ago so I believe some may think they have witnessed overdose symtoms.
I followed fletches link to the article from the uk claiming 1 overdose death.

Its pure drug war propaganda. He does not say pot killed this person only that he died while involved with criminal activity..
"He recorded a verdict of death by misadventure because Mr Maisey had died while taking part in an illegal activity. The death led to a warning about the changing strength of cannabis"
Notice the words "llegal activity" and "warning about the changing strength of cannabis"
This guy just died. People just stop breathing every day. Its not unusual for people to just stop living.
Reporting that Todays pot is stronger than it used to be is just one of many lies used in drug war propaganda .
