So even if I smoked 50 blunts in a row or ate a whole sheet pan of pot brownies in one sitting it wouldn't enter my system fast enough to cause illness? You can kill yourself drinking too much water too fast, so I don't see how it's impossible to overdose on anything, if you have enough of it in your system in a short enough period of time. Is it because your system only absorbs it so fast?
THC doesn't effect the vital system of the body. Its physically impossible to intake so much THC to kill you. I suppose someone took enough saline fluid to replace enough of your blood that oxygen flow would stop, that would kill you, whether it was laced with THC wouldn't be a factor though.
I'm curious about all the posters who are okay with growing for personal use but not selling--what is your reasoning? How is selling it any different than growing it to smoke it--aren't both growers and buyers just obtaining the same thing in different ways? Is it the fact someone is making a profit that you object to? Just want to understand other points of view.
Selling an illegal drug invites crime, especially if its occurring regularly.
I myself wouldn't want someone growing and selling next to me. But, as I said to another poster, those who grow are generally for personal use, and if they do sell, its in one large bundle deal more often than not.

(Mind you, I don't believe the possibility of overdosing is a valid reason to make something illegal. After all, you can technically overdose on water but criminalizing water would be stupid for obvious reasons.)
You would pass out before you could ingest a fatal amount(and, if you ate "too much" at once you would vomit it out before a fatal amount could enter your blood stream.)
Too many people need to learn to mind their own business. Live and let live. There are so many bad laws on the books. I don't give a damn if it's illegal, I will not turn in my neighbor for growing it. It's a horrible law that should get no regard whatsoever. Keep your nose to yourself and out of other people's arses! I swear snitches are just as low as the 'criminals' they are so quick to nail. Pretty scummy thing to do.

Isn't growing it a crime itself? I don't understand how one invites crime but not the other. I'm just confused about some of the distinctions that are being made.

Oh okay. Thanks for the explanation. That makes much more sense.

It incites violet crime. Personal growth that is kept to ones self greatly reduces that risk to the same realm as any other property of value.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Thousands of people all over the country sell pot in small quantities with no threat of crime.
