I told you that the people I know were dumb, ,,, this is the school for the dumb dumb...
You know someones not a real stoner when they talk about how their weed was laced one time in Canada. And almost everyone says they have... It's retawded I wish I could get laced weed...
Hahahah ya I go there. We got a campus e-mail yesterday about all this shit. Supposedly causes cardiac arrest and shit. I'll post the e-mail I got in a couple minutes.
Here's the e-mail we got: Student Health Alert California University officials would like to make students aware that the administration has learned of students who have become ill and sought medical treatment after suffering side effects of marijuana laced with Jimson Weed. Jimson Weed, also known as Thorn apple, stink weed or loco weed, is not a controlled substance, but has the potential to result in accidental poisoning. Symptoms may include incoherent speech, rapid heartbeat, seizures, intense visual or auditory hallucinations or cardiac arrest. A Jimson Weed overdose is potentially serious and medical intervention should be sought immediately. If you or a friend show symptoms, call 911 for an ambulance or go to the University Health Center in Carter Hall. The Health Center is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. I don't even wanna buy bud around here until this is all over.
LOL, all I got to say. Whatever. This reminds me off all those warnings on drug comericals. May cause your head to explode. Just because someone has a heart attack because they smoked some weed they are trying to make it a heath risk.
hippieatheart, that's what they're trying to do :/ buy chronic, you can look at a nug and tell if its a weed nug or some jimson weed. Wouldn't the bud have to be shake to blend in with the jimson weed? Cause i only buy da phat nugz
Ya I'm sure I'm not stupid enough to buy something that doesn't look like weed. The people that smoked it probably know nothing about weed and prob got ripped off anyway.
that really sucks if people are doing that i hope they get robbed but i too would think i could discriminate between cannabis and jimson weed
We are referring to Datura, right? How would someone not notice Datura flowers or leaves in their bud? I'm sure the taste is VERY different, too. People are just fucking stupid. Edit: http://www.erowid.org/plants/datura/datura_faq.shtml#6b7 Section 6a1) My experience with smoking the leaves of Datura was, at best, "inconclusive." On two occasions, I smoked Datura leaves. On one occasion, I smoked a flower. The first time, I smoked three leaves. The leaves were about two inches long, and one inch wide. Datura Inoxia was used in this case. They produced no effects, including no pupil dilation. The second time I smoked no more than the first, although I got a stomache ache. This may or may not have been because of the nervousness. The third time I smoked three leaves, the same size as the previous ones, and I smoked an entire flower. The flower was about 6 inches long. No effects whatsoever resulted. _Psychedelic Shamanism_ states that "no more than 2 grams should be smoked per week" Im pretty sure I smoked more than that, (in two days) with no effects. The taste of Datura smoke is unpleasant. It has a vague "dirty" taste to it. It was smoked out of a water pipe about 8 inches long (the actual chamber was around 5-5.5").
My buddy goes there. Thats messed up if someone is putting that in weed. But its probably just a few isolated cases.
didn't they do this a long time ago? You know, say pot is worse than coke, heroine and all that funky shit then everyone went out and did it and half the fools OD'd and shit? lmao.. wow
