37 die from marijuana overdose in Colorado
 

Colorado is reconsidering its decision to legalize recreational pot following the deaths of dozens due to marijuana overdoses.

According to a report in the Rocky Mountain News, 37 people were killed across the state on January 1st, the first day the drug became legal for all adults to use. Several more are clinging onto life in local emergency rooms and are not expected to survive.

"It's complete chaos here," says Dr. Jack Shepard, chef of surgery at St. Luke's Medical Center in Denver, "I've put five college students in body bags since breakfast and more are arriving every minute.

"We are seeing cardiac arrests, hypospadias, acquired trimethylaminuria and multiple organ failures. By next week the death toll could go as high as 200, maybe 300. Someone needs to step in and stop this madness. My god, why did we legalize marijuana? What were we thinking?"

Allow me a brief chuckle followed by a bellicose guffaw.


Seemed better than "LOL".

:D

what is better. The joke or people not taking it as a joke

I think both have their own set of benefits to this thread :thumbsup

Jeez
I helped spread this when I first saw it; eventually this topic came up. While many suggest that the difference between The Onion and DailyCurrant is that the latter is not funny, I think the fact that people believe it is hilarious. I love it when Democrats and Atheists post something from the Currant to support their POV.

Nailed it. :)

Look at this lovely less govt conservative from Wyoming post on the Wyoming Highway Patrols facebook page:

"I was hoping checkpoints would be set up to stop every green plate coming into this state. This whole thing is ridiculous! Colorado is the new California and I hope those lawmakers realize what a mistake they made and repeal it."

All the deaths should hopefully translate to shorter lift lines at Vail.

Ha, Rocky Mountain News has been shut down for years now.

Rocky Mountain High is one of the official state songs of Colorado :1orglaugh

lol :1orglaugh

This remind me how i never heard about marijuana overdose which is why it is so absurd to have it ilegall considering things which are legal like alcohol can create overdose death.

Why do I keep thinking this guy looks like Sebastian Vettel?
