Michael Brown Had Enough THC in his System to Trigger Hallucinations

[KevinNYC]

You can get very mild hallucinations on weed - it's more your eyes/brain are "playing tricks on you". Doesn't compare to LSD/mushrooms.

Also, they test for THC metabolites, not THC itself. Article is dumb.

Toxicology reports use terminology like this

▵9_THC
11-OH-THC
THC-COOH

There's nothing inaccurate about using THC as shorthand.

I forget how creditable a source is a the washington post? are they considered something akin to the NYT or the NY post?

You need to watch All the President's Men. They are much more like the NY Times than the NY Post.

If it's the one owned by the moonies, then not so sure.

Not the Washington Post.

Good post, you are correct, but only the first one is the active "THC" molecule that gets you high. You could have smoked 10 blunts yesterday, have very high levels of 11-OH-THC and carboxy-THC, but not be high at at all. Certainly not "enough to trigger hallucinations" which is misleading at best and an outright lie at worst.

Woah woah woah, are you saying that our very own 9er would post something that wasn't true?

Not possible. No way. I refuse to believe that.
