As if as parents we do not have enough to worry about.

This stuff and its side effects are crazy. The fact that you can pick it up in 7-11, my oh my, I do not thank heaven...

"Some of these folks aren’t right for a long time,” said Karen E. Simone, director of the Northern New England Poison Center. “If you gave me a list of drugs that I wouldn’t want to touch, this would be at the top."

My neighbors nephew killed himself a few weeks ago while doing them. Drove into a house at 70mph.

“If you take the worst attributes of meth, coke, PCP, LSD and ecstasy and put them together,” he said, “that’s what we’re seeing sometimes.”

Pretty wild.

A lot of these "scary new drug" stories tend to be full of over-sensationalized crap, but this stuff looks genuinely ugly. Take a look at some experience reports:

Not something I'd mess with. Kids need to be taught not to put things into their body without doing some research.

this has actully become a huge problem in the Marine Corps, people choose to do these "legal drugs" and they are much worse for you than actual drugs. its not a good thing

This hasd been a pretty serious problem in my area for a year or so now. There was some days that there were multiple deaths and tons of arrests due to bath salts on the news.

One couple was arrested when they called the cops to come and get the people out of their walls. When the cops showed up, the couple was stabbing all the walls in their house with kitchen knives while their 2 year old sat and watched. Sounds like a great time...

My department has repsonded to people high on this stuff, not fun. They made them illegal in PA.

This stuff is bonkers. If you're going to do drugs, at least do something intended for human consumption.



Or just become an alcoholic like MattBell. Er, me.

saw it on the news and one mnaufacturer said if the FDA were to try to classify them as adrug or controlled substance then he could just make a slight tweak to the recipe and get around any laws.

Yup, big problem here too. I'm a cop here in the city and we deal with this crap weekly it seems anymore. Really wigs people out. I THINK Ohio just passed a law though banning the sale.
