How do you feel about the herbal incense ban? and kids doing bath salt?
This is really a good question and I am honestly torn. We need to protect kids, but are we going to end up banning everything that might get a kid high? Do you know how many products that is? I am sure the schools have a drug awareness program, but perhaps it can be improved some? A strong parent education program could help too.
wow!!!... Bath salt? really? how do you do that? what does it do to you? It's a shame that kids these days can find all kinds of things to get high off of.
Protecting kids is just an excuse. Everyday people die from prescription drugs and many times not because of an overdose, yet there are bans on things that are mostly helpful and rarely harmful just to eliminate competition with big business.
Sorry for that little spill, but taking away freedoms doesn't protect people, it puts them in chains.
My personal opinion is they need to legalize more of the less risky things like marijuana. Possibly just decriminalize everything. Bath salts are killing off more people than heroin kills right now... From what I am told people or shooting up bath salts to get a speed buzz much like crack cocaine. Only difference is that bath salts have more harmful chemicals than crack. We will end up banning glue, markers, bath salt, spray paint, any many other products that kids use to get high... Something must be done and it is not taking products off the shelves.
