  • mtndewman3000 says:

    That’s a shame that all of those people have died from prescription drugs. Ha ha I took? a lot of prescription drugs and I didn’t even die. Ha ha in two years I took like six or seven different pills and I’m still alive. So, these people probably took a lot of pills to die.

    “He died from alcohol, marijuana, and prescription pain relievers”
    No, only two of those things can kill.
    “Meet Joe. He died from overdosing on meth, heroin,? and he also ate a Twinkie several hours before.”

    @fizzy408 are you a fukn idiot?
    it didnt say he died from weed….weed was just one of the drugs he was using while he died.
    ppl like? you are pathetic….you bitch about weed….you comment about it every chance you get.
    Its probably the only drug you have done.

  • JemGC20 says:

    your an? idiot. weed ruins both your mind and body – its a scientific fact.

  • JemGC20 says:

    @saffnpepa very well done on? sorting your body out. 🙂

  • 365degrees says:

    @fizzy408 WO? WO WO Take it easy. You will get your point across better in an Intelligent manner. I do understand what you are saying because I am currently prescribed a drug that every time some one overdoses it is mentioned. If taken as prescribed(as I do) you will not die from it but they always have to mention it as if that’s what killed the person. In this case you are referring to it was a mixture and marijuana just happened to be part of it. Most people know that MJ alone cannot kill you.
