From Post: WA Board of Pharmacy uses emergency ruling to ban 'bath salts'

"Bath salts kill and destroy. They have no good attributes to them."

I never said they did.

"Prohibition of a man made substance that is used solely to destroy life should be prohibited."

Yes, prohibition should be prohibited, but my guess is that's not what you were trying to say...

I'll say it again -- as you seemed to have missed my point -- what we need to work on is the best way of reducing harm. It is abundantly clear that this is not prohibition. I mean, have you read any of the research at all?

"Your comment is insensitive and callous."

And yours is... infused with love?

"Guest is trying to educate the public on this very issue and you have the audacity to criticize him. You should be ashamed....you're behavior is descusting."

First of all, I didn't criticize "guest" -- I was trying to educate guest.

But you know, I could argue that your behavior is pretty disgusting too. Instead of actually educating yourself about what works best in the area of public health policy, you just blindly choose the option that makes you feel best about yourself (you know, feel like you're actually doing something), all the while sacrificing innocent lives because of your irrational clinging to irrational polices.

If "X" works better to save more lives, and you choose "Y" anyway on emotional grounds, I don't see where you can justify your obvious feelings of ethical superiority. Yea, you may feel good about your actions, but they're not doing good. That's pretty self-centered, isn't it?

My ethical compass tells me to speak the truth, even it if is somewhat unpopular. Because, frankly, reducing harm for our youth is much more important to me than getting a "for shame on you!" from some random, uninformed Internet troll.

Your intentions may be good, but you're taking the world with you on your road to hell. Please don't.

Annonymous, HOW DARE you use your own bias opinions to needle guest. Bath salts kill and destroy. They have no good attributes to them. Prohibition of a man made substance that is used solely to destroy life should be prohibited. Your comment is insensitive and callous. Guest is trying to educate the public on this very issue and you have the audacity to criticize him. You should be ashamed....you're behavior is descusting.

From Post: 'Spice' incense contains designer cannabinoids

Alright kids! Grab yer socks and pull up yer brichs, Bich's! I have tried a variety of incenses out there, and yes, I have found some to be stronger than others. But this crap about out of body and yada yada yada,,,,well, I think you were all idiots before smoking it. So don't blame it on the incense, maybe take a look at your parents. What I mean is in moderation, it's an alright alternative to marijuana, which in my mind, you cannot duplicate, nor replicate. But in this vicious world of jobs and hair tests, let me tell you, it sure pulls a person through a hard day. that's all I got to say. Ok then, peace!

From Post: 'Spice' incense contains designer cannabinoids

I've smoked pot for over 40 years, and recently switched to incense/potpourri. Have tried several brands. Some got me high thje first time but much less subsequently. Recently picked up some 'Down to Earth' Purple Chronic. A few tokes had me so high (and dizzy) that for about an hour I couldn't stand up for more than about a minute at a time. This was no THC high, and not at all pleasant. About 50 grams later, getting up to a gram+ per day, I hope I can stop. Stopping weed took me through two weeks of hell. Nausea, depression, irritability, insomnia... I fear this is going to be worse. When I've stopped for a day I feel really lousy.

The other negative is this stuff is completely unregulated. It can be as strong as good bud, it can be 10X that. Even in a 3 gram jar the last half can be a lot stronger than the top, as the little bits of chemical sift to the bottom. I've had some that had stuff that looked like bug cocoons in it.

If you've gotta get high, smoke the genuine stuff. If you have to pass drug tests, then give it up. Is it worth your health, your sanity, and your job.

And this stuff ain't cheap. Much of it is $10-15 a gram.

From Post: Mass graves found in Canada linked to MKULTRA program

How does one carry out lobotomy and brain implant experimentation upon unwitting subjects? Easy, you con parents of children who suffer epilpesy, into having brain surgery upon thier child, and that by removal of some "scar tissue" will "cure" your child's seizure disorder. Then during the operation, one can carry out a left and right temporal lobectomy, along with the trespass of 43 metallic implants in the cerebral cortex. This is exactly what is taking place at the Toronto Hospital for Sick Children. It should be looked upon as most vile, corrupt, inhumane, and evil, that lobotomy is being imposed upon children who suffer epilepsy, despite the historical research of lobotomy upon psychiatric patients, demonstrating adverse effects of "seizures and cerebral hemmorrahaging". Brain surgery for epilepsy, in reality, is nothing more than lobotomy and destruction of healthy good brain tissue. Yet our neurosurgical profession tend to sugar coat this intrusion with words like "scar tissue". As a unwitting subject of such covert human experimentation, I can atest that this "new cure" for epilepsy is quite painful, and torturous, when screaming verbal profanities during a local cranium incision.
Listening to your skull crack apart is no joke. It's a shame that MK-ULTRA is still alive, when I have a HSC patient advocate informing me of a "on-going problem". Terry

1-i have to wonder how accurate this truly is?
2-Paul Yates, you're a wanker!

this scenario just happened in my mind:

scientist #1: hmm, what's a good thing to put our energy into next? well, we could try to cure cancer or AIDS i suppose...

scientist #2: nah, there's no real money in that. why do you think they have so many charities? the big government money is in stuff like military technology and drug testing....wait, hey - i've got an idea!

No worries, I am a scientist and use stuff like this. It is extremely expensive, and with our countries debt issues, there is no way this would get funding in the foreseeable future.

From Post: Fake weed causing hallucinations

Let me clarify something, lest it seem I'm engaging in hyperbole:

"So I'll take a more direct approach: your attitudes towards drugs are, to a
great degree, what created the problem in the first place. You're killing your
daughter."

You're calling for prohibition.

Prohibition created these drugs.

What makes you think that the world is magically going to start working in a different way?

From Post: Fake weed causing hallucinations

"I am going to make it a point to try and get this stuff banned. Thought my daughter was going to stop breathing after smoking killa zombie. Bad news.."

As I commented recently in a different thread on the topic, this is not a good approach. We now have decades of experience and research that demonstrate, irrefutably, that prohibition is not an effective strategy in combating drug abuse.

If you really love your daughter and her friends, inform yourself about the data, and demand that your elected officials act in the best way possible to combat drug abuse.

It is abundantly clear that youth will use marijuana. They do so even when the simple act can destroy their lives (from the legal perspective). They can't be scared out of it -- it just doesn't work. The first step in behaving sanely is admitting what exists, and this exists.

Knowing the situation, we must engage in harm reduction. People wouldn't be using these sketchy products if a safer alternative existed. And of course, a safer alternative does exist.

Once safer alternatives are available, society needs to learn to treat problematical relationships with drugs as a heath problem, not a legal one.

Etc. etc. Hell, I know I'm wasting my time, so I may has well stop. The research showing this to be true would fill a small library, but that doesn't matter to those who have already bought into the efficacy of the "war on drugs."

So I'll take a more direct approach: your attitudes towards drugs are, to a great degree, what created the problem in the first place. You're killing your daughter.
