[davidsingle500]

poor kid

[davidsingle500]

[only1one1me]

RIP Brandon Rice. Went peacefully in his sleep a month after the lung transplant.

[Haqpyfeet]

Natural selection strikes again.

[filipponemynutz]

Thumbs up if you know that K2 is not to blame for this sad story!

Tell the truth people, set a good example.

[madisonhill70]

Keep fighting I'll pray for u and family god will guide u so just STAY STRONG

[ACNYAH]

I made a group on facebook called Make Synthetic Marijuana Illegal. You should check it out. I'm also writing to the senate and white house on this issue. I was doing research and came across this video.. I'm very sorry to see that someone so young had to suffer through this

[filipponemynutz]

@ACNYAH Oh? you don't know the truth? that's because the news didn't say that the TRUTH is K2 or any synthetic cannabinoids are not to blame for this sad story or any of them for that matter. Don't get me wrong I am not an advocate for this garbage however I do enjoy some good old fashion truth and the truth is, A plastic PEZ dispenser and natural selection is to blame for these chemical burns as well as paint chips for people who create propaganda without READING the entire article.

[2katielee]

hows he now??? this was a while ago

[HisBabyGirl2011ish]

i am praying for him and his family. hope he makes it. STAY STRONG AND KEEP YOU HEAD UP BRANDON.......GOD IS ALWAYS ON YOUR SIDE. I WANT THESE SYNTHIC DRUGS GONE IT HURTS THE ONE U REALLY LOVE. I WANT THEM OFF STREETS AND OFF SHELFS.

[filipponemynutz]

@HisBabyGirl2011ish :Ahem: PEZ dispenser! peace be with you.

[charloettedorff]

@filipponemynutz Actually it wasn't from a PEZ dispenser, shut your mouth if you don't know the facts.

[azoof]

@charloettedorff Actually it was. He smoked plastic which is what burned and coated his lungs with chemicals. After the transplant he received a shot of some sort that lowered his immune system. Legalize cannabis so that these incidents don't have to occur! Also I'll throw this in here. Kony 2012!

[KekeKiwi17]

OMG I'm sorry

[SaMiAm702]

Smoke real weed kids. RIP

[TheAkiameYatsuki]

This K2 bullshit is fucked up, leave it to the fucking Brits to screw things up for a lot of people! Makes me wonder why Marijuana is Illegal but K2 isn't! K2 KILLS people by ITSELF! when has Marijuana ever killed someone on its lonesome? Marijuana kills you if you super-humanly abuse the thing! it barely increases risk of heart related issues, and even then its long-term like cigarettes. This K2 is killing people like the Taliban! Left and right and without abuse.

[filipponemynutz]

@TheAkiameYatsuki Is that what your local news channel told you? They must have a degree in propaganda.

[BooKatie123]

I dont even know this boy and i was crying! :( Get better in my prayers!!!

[Alisahakakian]

[aquareyes33]

Find Jesus, not drugs... His high lasts forever!!

[PresleyStudios]

@aquareyes33 Amen

[griz063]

@aquareyes33

Considering what has happened, very poor witness.

Think before you type. Especially if mentioning Jesus.

Condolences to family and friends. May you grieve well and know peace.

Especially the "older friend". Don't let this destroy you. Do something of on-going meaning in Brandon's memory.

[bamthatshott21]

Ok one how did he get chemical burns in his lungs and is he ok?

[filipponemynutz]

@bamthatshott21 From smoking through a PEZ dispenser.

[Clearwater1999]

Update on him please. I'm so sorry Bout this. Hope he is ok??

[scullcrusher800]

That made me cry i hope he is doing well :)

[creolelady70]

@scullcrusher800 he died

[SirKrow]

That's what happens when you smoke through a pez dispenser made of plastic that releases cyanide gas when heated. Synthetic Marijuana has nothing to do with it, he could have merely pulled the flame through an empty pez and he would have died. I feel so sad for him and his family, and I can only imagine how terrifying being in that hospital would have been. But people need to know who that the spice company's aren't the real bad guys.

[Docthal010]

pull the plug on his ass!!!

[justin3815]

@Docthal010 dumb comment 

[griz063]

@Docthal010

There's a lot of "heros" posting here.

Let's hope when your mistakes catch up to you, there's nobody like you around.

And here's hoping that those who knew and loved Brandon can over-look all the bottom-feeders. Sincere condolences. I never met or knew Brandon, but you've shared his story -- a very piece of his soul -- quite admirably.

[Docthal010]

@griz063 this dumb shit got what he had coming one less retard to sour the gene pool good by and good riddance

[sjohnso100]

@kking1017 Your honestly pathetic & need to get a lifee!

[sjohnso100]

I Miss You So Much! So Does veryone Else At School. I still cry every once in a while thinking about you. Christmas was really hard this year knowing that your family would have to spend it without you. But i know you were watching over them. We all prayed and hoped you would get better,you were doing better until the night you died. No one understands why it had to be you. Why couldn't it have been somone else? We miss you soo much! We know you are watching over us. -Gone But NEVER Forgotten<3

[inhalefarts]

It's funny that people are blaming this story on K2. HE SMOKED PLASTIC on accident while trying to hit the k2 from a homemade pipe. K2 may not be healthy in its own right, but the fact that synthetic weed did this to him is totally bullshit

[Docthal010]

@inhalefarts ha ha ha figures i knew it couln't be the k2 what a dumb ass this kid was

[MrBwc131]

I'm sorry for the family and friends of this young man but it was not the K2 that did this to him it was the plastic piece that he used to smoke it. Blaming his death on the synthetic chemicals instead of the real cause his father and the media have missed an opportunity to let kids know that smoking anything out of any plastic container will kill you! Please if you really want to save some other child from making the same mistake tell them what really happened instead of twisting it around.

[accav96]

I smoked this shit for about 2 months maybe 3. I will NEVER smoke it again. I got withdrawals worse then i could ever imagine, and I get frequesnt panic attacks. Im not as bad as Brandon but still, NO one should ever smoke K2 again. Hope he pulls through..

[Damiggit15]

@accav96 dude i had that same shit but i smoked that shit for about a year every day. im lucky. the withdraw was worth then the withdraw from coke. (dont ask me about that). i passed out, freaked out for no reason, couldent eat or sleep for 3 days. good to hear people are getting off of that shit.

[HostilityCombatArms]

Around me, this dumb pointless incense is now illegal. It is for the better, i know people who have had seizures and blacked out from it, stay away from any sort of legal type of marijuana, it will kill you.

[TasteThePa1nbow]

@HostilityCombatArms ARE YOU KIDDING ME ?

[copa1n]

I will never smoke this stuff again. 2 days ago I smoked some sort of blend and it felt like i was having a heart attack. I had the worst hangover i have ever had. They should just legalize weed so we can stop killing our selves using this stuff.

[odCloud]

Damn, i smoked this stuff yesterday nd almost died, im throwing the rest away, this shxt is evil, F weed, this is the real problem

[pr0digeez]

SMOKE WEED, NOT THIS SHIT! WEED IS A REAL HERB!

[lilmazza121]

Such a sad story but the spice is not what caused the burns in his lungs, smoking from a plastic pez dispenser was one of the worst decisions you could make, if people couldn't gain access to this stuff at 14 years it would be alright, i smoke it now and its not bad at all you just have to be smart when doing things, and the stores need to card people. RIP Brandon

[PaulBinPa]

Brandon died because weed is illegal. Its just that simple but you don't here anyone saying that. Not one person has Ever died from smoking pot.

[Shorty20115]

R.I.P. Brandon.♥ I love you.♥

[Samueloi]

R.I.P. Brandon



[StigmaSims]

the kid did it to himself for smoking out of plastic.If the kid was smart , he would've used a socket or something atleast.It's common sense.I'm not condoning any type of drug or herbal use at all , but if you're going to be stupid , be smart about it.I hold no sympathy for the kid because it was his own stupidity.Noone elses , not the spice.But my heart goes out to the family , they're the ones who suffered because of his terrible choice to smoke out of plastic.

[azurescens420]

@StigmaSims

More like if you are going to be smart, don't be stupid about it.

[misswilline]

@StigmaSims yeah it might be stupid from him, but do you know a kid of that age that doesn't stupid thinks? he's just the one of million where it didn't went out right.

(sorry for my bad English)

[rainxinxblack21]

:(

[olivia614]

So sad... But it pisses me off that the media has headlines saying "Teen dies after smoking synthetic pot" he died from inhaling the plastic that scorched his lungs! smoke anything out of a PEZ dispenser and your bound to burn your lungs. this tradgedy is just going to be used to ban K2 forever. PS: it does say on the back NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION!

[dancing101pnm]

praying <3 i love you Brandon

~Paige

[aei31]

This kid's lungs were burned by molten plastic from an inappropriate device that he used to smoke herbal incense. It's a shames that his life and possible death has been exploited by his father for other purposes. He is the very definition of a bad father. If it was the incense that did this (a physically impossibility), then there are legal remedies that his family could of purposed. Unfortunately, this isn't the case. It was just a childish mistake. I hope he makes the best of his new lungs.

[aeropostalegirls123]

@kking1017 that was ignorant? how would you feel if this was you??! you would want people praying for you to get better? wowww.

[aeropostalegirls123]

brandon got surgery for new lungs, now he is waiting to see if he accepts the lungs. he is doing very good right now thoough. keep praying and spread the word.

[DRnikkiH0USE]

@aeropostalegirls123 How is he today?

[oxXxJMExXxo]

@DRnikkiH0USE HE HAS DIED GOOGLE

[14hadden14]

my mother just found out that i was going to do and sell this k2 "fake weed" so she researched and found abunch of stuff his name was on a peice of paper and i typed it in... this came up and now i am just thinking what if this was me what if i sold this to him i would feel horrible this aint no joke it should be illigal

i hope and pray to god that he gets better that he can keep fighting and stay in there

BE STRONG BRANDON

[aeropostalegirls123]

@14hadden14 thank you so much.

[aeropostalegirls123]

@14hadden14 thank you so much.



[filipponemynutz]

@14hadden14 Smoking/selling k2 has nothing do with this sad story. smoking a multivitamin from a PEZ dispenser will give you chemical burns. Sorry you have been misinformed for the wrong reasons. Im sure you have heard this b4, but you will understand when you are older.

[JulciiaOfficial]

Keeping him in my prayers<3

[72peterbilt]

keep fighting we are here for you always stay strong buddy we love you



[blissful185]

thank you for sharing your story,it can't be easy.i will be praying for all of you and passing the story on.the more prays the better.stay strong and keep fighting.

[XxMisty150xX]

You did a great job with the video....the Rice family is staying strong....keep praying for Brandon's miracle
