What is this, the 60's!? Do people still really believe the ridiculous myths about THC!? In reality, THC would most likely stop that train of thought, can anyone picture a stoner shooting someone? I can't...

I would like to preface this by saying Dr. Oz is a fucking clown and his opinion on this matter is so off base that it has reached Orbit.

BUT THC is not 100% safe. There are documented cases of people that do enter states of temporary psychosis . The article posted even states that it is rare and does not happen in all cases.

Now, this does not, by any means, means that school shooters are sucking down a spliff one day and deciding to go kill someone, but the reality is that THC is mond altering and under certain circumstances it can induce psychosis.

In conclusion, Oz is a fuckhead that should have stayed in his lane in NJ and kept shilling for Oprah for Snake oil.

It isn't very common with cannabis and it does take high doses and someone that may already have underlying mental health issues.

It is purely anecdotal, but I have a friend that has underlying mental health issues and they took a 50mg retail edible as their first time. In the process they also took a huge dab and later in the might a second edible.

For a first timer that is massive amounts. They had a psychotic episode due to their underlying mental health issues being amplified by the anxiety and other effects of the cannabis and had to be 302'd for a 72 hour hold.

I believe you 100%. I got so many stories, it's not even funny. Anecdotal is the only, true way to learn things. It's up to society, to actually listen. So many close minded individuals though, it's truly nauseating. Thank you for your experience.
