Totally agree with you there Rob. I know regular smokers here in Colorado that won't touch the edibles.

Certainly giving anyone candy laced with intoxicants without their knowledge is a reprehensible and illegal act. On the other hand, what is this nonsense about marijuana candy from one of the "legal" states. I live in one of the "legal" states and, trust me, no one is being dropped to their knees by MJ brownies. If this "candy" was laced with a dangerous intoxicant, it was far more likely to be a synthetic such as meth or one of the artificial opioids.

In all fairness, I've witnessed pot virgins glom down a bunch of pot brownies they didn't know were laced, and more than one had an experience that was rather terrifying for them because the very idea of getting high on pot was fearful to them thanks to all the negative propaganda.

I read about this on-line in the local newspapers, and was stunned that anyone would do such a thing. Definitely not okay!

I totally agree with you Rob. One word my First grade teacher thought us when we did something wrong in class, was "unacceptable".
This is truly a case of unacceptable. I hope they find the Culprits

If they would just legalize it then this type of thing couldn't happen!

Sorry, Rob, just couldn't resist pulling your chain this morning!

Really, this type of behavior should be treated as a highest order of international felony. Slipping someone a MJ brownie is one this, this event is something else!

The other day some U.S. or Canadian tourists leaving the Hotel Viceroy gave a bag of "candy" to the awaiting taxi drivers. It turns out the candy was laced with a yet undetermined intoxicating substance. Some speculated it was pot, others that it was LSD. Everyone's calling for a formal investigation including requiring the Viceroy to reveal the names of the guests.

Personally I consider this a particularly reprehensible act since several taxi drivers had to be hospitalized, and it was only a stroke of luck that no one was killed while driving when the effects kicked in.

Whoever did this will most likely be prosecuted. I hope you're reading this and that you're worried, as you should be. Crap like this ain't funny.
