Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich announced late Sunday that they were coordinating their efforts in three upcoming primary states in an extraordinary attempt to prevent Republican front-runner Donald Trump from clinching the GOP nomination before this summer's convention. In a pair of simultaneously released statements, the campaigns announced that Kasich would pull out of Indiana to give Cruz "a clear path" ahead of that state's winner-take-all primary May 3, while the Cruz campaign will "clear the path" for Kasich in Oregon, which votes May 17, and New Mexico, which votes June 7.

To: Gatlin (#4) investigators found three marijuana "grow operations" at rural residences where eight family members were killed in southern Ohio and this operation was not for personal use; it was for something much bigger than that. It was a very sophisticated operation. And the reason people get shot over commercial amounts of pot is that it's illegal - just as people got shot over commercial amounts of alcohol when that addictive mind-altering drug was illegal. Yet, not a single person here died from a weed overdose. No, they haven't - unless you're claiming that the Ohio murders were committed by applying fatal amounts of weed.

To: ConservingFreedom (#9) And the reason people get shot over commercial amounts of pot is that it's illegal - That is a patently absurd statement … you don’t know that. It could be the case sometimes. But you also don’t know the reason these people may have been shot was that marijuana “use” could have contributed to and caused the aggressive and violent behavior. What … marijuana contributes to aggressive and violent behavior. Well, yes … it does! Studies have repeatedly shown that marijuana contributes to the likelihood of aggressive and violent behavior. An article published in the Journal of Addictive Behaviors reported that “marijuana is clearly the drug with the most evidence to support a direct intoxication-violence relationship.” Colorado legalized marijuana for recreational use. The CDC reports there are more than 134,000 annual deaths in Colorado attributed to marijuana use alone and this figure does not include accidental deaths and the deaths by gunshot shows no relationship to “illegal commercial amounts of pot.” One can safely surmise that the reason 134,000 annual deaths in Colorado, of which some to many were shot, was not people getting shot over commercial amounts of pot is that it’s illegal.

CDC warns of marijuana consumption in report citing teen's Colorado death The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in a report released Friday, says the case of a teen who leaped to his death from a Denver hotel balcony after eating marijuana-infused cookies illustrates "a potential danger" with edible pot. The CDC, along with a Colorado health official and Denver's medical examiner's office, said the death suggests the need for greater public health education to discourage marijuana overconsumption. Levy Thamba, a 19-year-old student at Northwest College in Powell, Wyo., died at a Holiday Inn in northeast Denver in March 2014. Officials say his friends tried to calm him down before his fatal four-story leap. The city's coroners listed "marijuana intoxication" from cannabis-infused cookies as a significant condition contributing to Thamba's death. His death was classified as an accident. Well, you are getting better with your lies - you were only off by 133,999. Deckard  posted on  2016-04-26   15:37:05 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #49. To: Deckard, and other potheads (#24) A new study of marijuana drug use in Colorado found increases in marijuana-related traffic deaths, hospital visits, school suspensions, lab explosions, and pet poisonings. The study was conducted by a federal government program. The 166-page report released this month analyzed the effects of legalizing marijuana for medical and recreational use in Colorado spanning the time period from 2006 to the present. Along with the state of Washington, Colorado is considered as something of laboratory in which the effects of legalizing marijuana use can be studied. The study showed that the number of drivers testing positive for marijuana increased 100 percent from 2007 to 2012, with marijuana-related fatalities doubling from 37 to 78. Traffic fatalities total around 500 a year in the state. One of the reports key findings was that the number of children aged zero to five exposed to marijuana increased 268 percent when comparing the period from 2006 to 2009 to the period from 2010 to 2013: triple the national average. The report showed that more young people aged 12 to 17 were using marijuana as well. When asked during a national survey in 2012 whether they had used marijuana in the past month, 10.47 percent of Colorado’s youth said they had, which was 39 percent higher than the national average. “I never dreamed in a million years that this would happen to my son,” Kendal, a parent who didn’t want to use his last name, told CBS, referring to a time when he came home to find his 13-year-old son unconscious from what he says was a marijuana overdose. “He was gray. His heart wasn’t beating and he wasn’t breathing,” Kendal said. Kendal used CPR to resuscitate him, and later talked to his son’s high school peer and supplier. Marijuana-related emergency room visits grew 57 percent in two years, from 8,198 in 2011 to 12,888 in 2013, the study found, with a 29 percent increase in emergency room visits for teens. The report also found that drug-related suspensions and expulsions increased 32 percent between the 2008-2009 and 2012-2013 school years. The majority of expulsions were for marijuana violations. From 2006 to 2008, there were 1,000 to 4,800 medical marijuana cardholders and no known dispensaries in Colorado. As of the end of 2012, there were 108,000 cardholders and 532 licensed dispensaries. ... Gatlin  posted on  2016-04-27   4:04:35 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #65. To: Gatlin, Deckard, hondo68 (#49) The study was conducted by a federal government program. The study was conducted by a federal drug enforcement program and is bullshit: 'In its review of a crash risk study from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), RMHIDTA writes “Researchers found that marijuana users are 25 times more likely to be in an accident than those that did not use the drug. By comparison, drunk drivers are four times more likely to crash than sober drivers.” 'RMHIDTA didn’t compose that sentence. That was cut-and-pasted verbatim from an article in the International Business Times, entitled “Drug Use On US Roads Rises As Drunken Driving Drops“. That article links to a study from NHTSA entitled “Drug and Alcohol Crash Risk Study“. The problem for RMHIDTA and, by extension, Kevin Sabet, is that the study referred to stated there was a 1.25 odds-risk ratio for THC-positive drivers versus sober drivers. 'That’s a 25 percent greater risk, not 25 times greater risk. That’s far safer than the roughly 400 percent greater risk posed by drunk drivers the study noted. 'But wait, it gets worse for Kevin. The study then goes on to conclude, “When demographic factors (age and gender) and alcohol use were controlled, the study did not find an increase in population-based crash risk associated with THC use.” In other words, young male drivers are the nation’s worst drivers, statistically speaking, especially if they are drinkers, and they also happen to be the demographic with the greatest marijuana use rates. 'Kevin then trots out other scare stats from RMHIDTA that bear a similar disdain for honest evaluation of the facts. Like a “32 percent increase in marijuana-related traffic deaths in just one year,” neglecting to mention that “marijuana-related” means “we discovered active THC or inactive THC- COOH (THC metabolites) in the bodies of drivers who died in car wrecks.” 'You’re probably more likely to find married gays or married lesbians dying in car wrecks these days, too, now that gay marriage is legal. It doesn’t mean legalizing gay marriage has led to more traffic deaths. The problem with the “marijuana-related” deaths is that THC-COOH can be detected for up to 30 days and even THC can be detected for up to 5 days after total abstinence from marijuana. Now that marijuana is legal in Colorado, what are the chances any random person might have used some in the past month? 'And by the way, overall traffic deaths in Colorado are down. Either everyone else is driving a hell of a lot safer to compensate for the stoned drivers, or marijuana legalization hasn’t really had any effect on traffic safety. After all, legalization didn’t invent cars and driving; stoners didn’t all walk to Woodstock and Haight-Ashbury. 'Kevin uses the same RMHIDTA sleight-of-hand to proclaim “A 38 percent increase in the number of marijuana-related hospitalizations,” which, like the car wrecks, just tells us that sometimes people who smoke pot go to the hospital. If you smoked a joint Saturday night, then got into a fender- bender Monday morning and went to the hospital, and they found that marijuana metabolite in your urine, you’re a “marijuana-related hospitalization.” 'Except with this data set, in addition to detection of THC or metabolites we also get to add in people who tell the attending physician they use marijuana. Now that marijuana is legal in Colorado, do you suppose people are a bit more forthcoming with their doctor about using it? Remember this point when he eventually trots out the talking point about kids and accidental marijuana ingestion admissions; do you suppose a parent is more likely to report their kid getting into their now-legal marijuana stash, rather than lie about whatever it is that is making the kid sick or just wait it out at home? 'Then there’s Kevin and RMHIDTA tossing out the non sequitur “Colorado youth usage (ages 12 to 17) ranks 56 percent higher than the national average.” Here’s an example of something that is true but totally misleading without context. Yes, after legalization, in 2012-2013, Colorado’s teen monthly use rate was 11.16 percent, compared to the national rate of 7.15 percent, a difference of 56 percent. And before legalization, the average Colorado rate for 2008-2010 was 13.25 percent, the national rate was 8.61 percent, a difference of 54 percent. Colorado has always had greater teen usage rates than the nation as a whole. 'Reforming marijuana laws doesn’t lead to greater marijuana use; places with greater marijuana use demand reforms of marijuana laws.' www.huffingtonpost.com/russ-belville/kevin-sabet- is-misleading_b_8192098.html ConservingFreedom  posted on  2016-04-27   12:07:38 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   Replies to Comment # 65.         There are no replies to Comment # 65.
