I know someone who was allergic to cannabis and had to avoid rooms where it was being smoked. Rare, but possible.

It was the coroners verdict the paper is only reporting what he said.

What about the falure to test for abnormal heart disease. That's only for rich people as it is too expensive to treat?
I did not know cannabis lowered blood pressure. All the other drugs are a bit iffy?

Surely that's very good evidence that it is relatively safe compared to, say, penicillin, paracetamol, aspirin, or peanuts.
‘This case serves as a warning that cannabis can cause immense harm.’
Hmmm, not really. Far more people have died from hyponatremia. Does that mean water is even more dangerous?

Can't you read? That was the coroners verdict.
It's very famous for lowering blood pressure and is used to treat glaucoma, potentially saving people's eyesight.

So do the DM report every person that chokes to death in their sleep because they are p***ed then? I think that's where he was coming from.

Something that I don't think has ever been recorded before. It's apparently impossible to have a cannabis overdose it is only possible for the cannabis to activate an already present condition Shirley?

I've no idea, but the Coroner returned the verdict, and he would've only done this based on the expert medical opinion given to him.
It was on the BBC a few days back - not sure I've seen their report questioned - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-25968093
My late wife was the manager of a home for the mentally ill and a large proportion of her residents were psychotic due to the use of cannabis.
She would often say to me that these people that want to legalise it use should come and see the damage it causes.

This thread has outed quite a few potheads 
Yep, and my g/f is a research psychologist who, inter alia, interviews patients with psychosis (and controls). One of the strongest indicators for psychosis is heavy &/or prolonged use of cannabis. It's roughly the same odds ratio as suffering childhood sexual abuse.
