Wow.

We've had a ton of CHS patients (weird, bc it's not legal here - I know folks in Colorado, etc, have seen way more). Many require hospitalization, but none have died.

It's pretty common that they are in complete denial about what causes it.

I switched to edibles but if I was still smoking weed on occasion please tell me you'd force me to stop, Frank.

How else would I know that you and the rest of society "cared"?

If the young man was only 17 how could he die from long term use? The doctors` case looks rather weak.

Yes, like going to the doctor or being admitted to a hospital.

"Practicing medicine" means exactly that.

The kid didn't die from smoking weed, he died from smoking weed with a medical condition that was adverse to smoking weed. I'm sure the cancer complicated things as well if not the main cause.

Team Red doesn't believe in "personal responsibility" when it comes to certain things.
