Staten Island’s Largest Cannabis Dispensary Grand Opening Tomorrow: FlynnStoned

Editor’s note: We previously covered the opening of The Flowery, which is also on Staten Island.  We also covered the legal win for cannabis shops and smoke shops that were closed down in New York recently.  Most of them have been allowed to reopen, as many of them were not selling any illegal substances, but many were providing CBD, which is legal under the Farm Bill.  Many have argued that cannabis should be treated like alcohol and tobacco, both of which have proven harms but are legal to sell in the US.  However, cannabis has not been shown to be harmful in the same ways as those two substances. 

From our previous article about cannabis toxicity: The DEA has now rescheduled cannabis to Schedule III, with a low potential for abuse and addiction, as well as low toxicity.  As stated in the DEA’s factsheet about marijuana, “No deaths from overdose of marijuana have been
reported.”  And according to research from the NIH, “Risk of death due to cannabis toxicity is negligible. However, cannabis can prove fatal in circumstances with risk of traumatic physical injury, or in individuals with cardiac pathophysiologies.” In that study, the only deaths reported were those involving traumatic injury, such as a fall, where the person had coincidentally ingested cannabis.  “Polydrug use was evident in most cases.., with acute drug toxicity the prevalent underlying cause ”  In this study, data was collected in every situation where someone had died and their blood test revealed cannabis in their system.  These cases were then reported to the  National Programme on Substance Abuse Deaths (NPSAD), which tracks deaths from all abused substances (illicit drugs).  

 

Saturday’s event will feature over 13 New York State licensed cannabis farms and vendors, with a focus on community engagement and cannabis education.
