Marijuana users searching for bigger highs may start injecting THC, doctor fears


As a member of the Amendment 64 task force who is deeply troubled by the possible repercussions of legalizing marijuana, as well as a central figure in the national anti-pot organization Project SAM, Dr. Christian Thurstone is controversial in the marijuana community. But he hasn't backed away from warning about the dangers of weed, particularly for adolescent users.

His latest assertion? Users may soon start directly injecting THC, the active ingredient in cannabis, rather than smoking or ingesting marijuana.

"It seems like people are doing more and more to get a deeper high and presenting to us more and more addiction to marijuana," says Thurstone, whose main gig is as medical director of a Denver Health program called Substance Abuse Treatment, Education and Prevention (STEP). "I worry that might be a next step toward the injection of THC."

Thurstone shares this concern in "Higher and Higher, the latest blog on his personal website, DrThurstone.com. The offering revolves around elevated levels of THC found in urinalysis tests conducted on his patients, most of whom range in age from thirteen to nineteen.

1. I wonder if that will work with a single malt? nt

4. Interesting thought, but I prefer my single malt the old-fashioned way.

Smoky and a little hot on the way down.

8. Your favorite? nt

Anything beyond that is getting past my price range.

3. Dr Thurstone should try smoking it.

odds are he will be too high to think of shooting it up.

5. Ah, a candidate for The Moronic Party Surgeon General.

Now we have to have a primary, since Dr. Wakefield was the only previous candidate.

6. Next thing you know...

reefer addicts will be dipping six-penny nails in hash oil and hammering them right into their brains

7. My wife still laughs about the original "Reefer Madness" movie.

I've never seen it, but she says it's a hoot.

[Cirque du So-What]

10. I recommend it highly (no pun intended)

not only for the unintentional comedy but as a study in early attempts in cinematic propagandizing.

11. I highly recomend it highly.

Reefer madness used to be a regular at the midnite Movies at the old tTowne theater (porn theater that had a high tolerance for high tolerance) here in Sacramento. And we would get baked and head out on a Saturday night and watch that movie and laugh like we were serious.

So funny. the days. We had a great radio station, KZAP, that promoted that type of thing and we could freak freely in the theater, so it was THE PLACE to go. Saw tons of great ones there. THE TRIP!

14. Ah, memories...

There was a theater in Portland, OR, that did the same thing. Back in that day, it was 'smoke 'em if ya got 'em'
