Meaning no disrespect to Officer Roland Clee, guest writer, and his opinion about marijuana (April 18, "Legalizing marijuana would not be good for Florida"), however it is not possible to overdose from marijuana. To imply that there are more marijuana overdoses annually than American deaths in Vietnam is insulting to those 58,220 who did die there and the hundreds of thousands of us who honorably served there.
Officer Clee has confused marijuana with opioids which killed over 80,000 in 2021 alone. The most common symptoms of marijuana use include anxiety, panic attacks, palpitations, paranoia, and hallucinations. These symptoms result from an excessive level of THC in the bloodstream. While these symptoms can be distressing, they are not life-threatening.
