should drugs like marijuana, salvia, shrooms, that show no true physical or mental harm, be illegal?

i wrote a question asking whether salvia should be illegal or not, and got all the answers i figured i would get. the people that said no it should stay legal advocate for freedom and the “if it doesnt hurt anyone lets do it” mentality as do i. the ones that said yes relate it to other psychoactive drugs like acid and hardcore crack/meth, saying if we leave this legal we might as well make those legal. the only problem is.. where are the withdrawal effects of salvia that u get from trying to stop smoking crack or shooting heroin? there are none. i advocate for legalizing that which doesnt hurt people limiting it to a reasonable mary jane, salvia divinorum which is legal, and shrooms. what do u guys think?

everything has a bad rep but do your homework on this one id rather not any answers that are completely bias. and dont relate the drugs to the governments position on them please i already know what the government thinks. i know people think that by doing these drugs teens might wanna try other ones but if everyone knows their stats and info of withdrawal symptoms of the actual BAD drugs im sure teenagers and adults wouldnt.

maybe by keeping things illegal, the people who break the law to try shrooms, since it doesnt do anything but has penalties of a hardcore drug… they feel like theyre already risking their ass for one drug, why not heroine if the govt treats it as bad in its classification bullshit. we all know its NOT. ever think about that people?

should things that dont hurt people in any way be illegal?
yeah cite your sources… cause some fool tried stating a bunch of bs facts that made no sense. everything states was disproven here:

haters keep hating. open ur minds with ganj. maybe then you’ll be able to see past what you’ve been brainwashed to think.

What does a heroin high feel like?

Yes, drugs are bad, but just curious. What would make someone so desperate to get a hit? Besides the withdrawals of course. What does it feel like when you are high on heroin? How different is it from marijuana?

Does legal weed Gonjah, K2, Spice, Zohai, Genie Herbal smoke blends get you high like marijuana? or bad trip?

Posted By: pothead5 @ 03/17/2010 1:32:34 PM
“K2” a.k.a. “Spice,” “Genie,” “Zohai” and “Gonjah” are all hallucinogens, these horrible drugs are synthetic man-made compounds ( JWH-018 and JWH-073) .
“K2 and all the others cause increased heart rate, loss of consciousness, paranoia, hallucinations and psychotic episodes. Users can develop chemical dependencies, withdrawal and addictive behaviors.”
These “herbal smoke” “legal weeds” are all dangerous drugs and the complete opposite of marijuana. This stuff doesn’t even have a medical use. They’re dangerous! Trust me.

The symptoms and side affects listed above are facts. Teens are getting high on “fake weed,” a concoction also known as K2 and “spice” that is also causing hallucinations, vomiting, agitation and other dangerous effects. People are dying or freaking out on this stuff. Scary man. Stay away!

There have been hospitalizations here in San Diego. There have been 10 News reports on a 14 year old who still has a rapid heartbeat and bad psychoactive effects 6 weeks after taking “K2” a.k.a. “Genie” .

I tried it last night. It isn’t at all like pot. K2 / “spice” or “gonjah” is more like a horrible hallucinogen than a relaxer. I used K2 Blonde in a two-hit bowl. It took about 5 minutes to feel the effect and it wasn’t a mellow high. It was, instead, about 90 minutes of visual and auditory hallucinations accompanied by heightened sensory experiences and diminished motor control. When my eyes were open, everything seemed to be wavy and what I was looking at before my eyes closed became distorted in my mind’s eye – for example, all of the DVDs by the TV had tails that were going around in circles.
There were a few moments when I almost panicked because the experience was not at all what I expected and extremely intense but by focusing my mental efforts on a specific object in my memory; I was able to keep the panic under control. The effects didn’t significantly subside for at least 90 minutes and some of the bad trip persisted throughout the night.

My 16 year old son tired this crap last night and TRIED TO JUMP FROM HIS BED ON THE SECOND STORY THROUGH THE WINDOW TO THE SWIMMING POOL BELOW!! He was completely out of his mind. He ended up cutting his head in 4 places and his face in 3. He had to get 69 stitches. This stuff is dangerous. The paramedics assumed he was on PCP because he was showing the same behaviors. I’ve already started writing a letter to my state representatives to have it banned Texas.

This crap causes fast heart palpitations especially when mixed with antidepressants or other drugs, its not surprising that “k2″, “gonjah” or “spice” cause similar reactions on their own or worse if it is in fact mixed with something.
Read the reports on this stuff. They all have some intense psychedelic effects similar to LSA or Ketamine, very different then marijuana. stay away.

In St. Louis, Anthony Scalzo, a pediatrician and toxicologist at Saint Louis University Hospital, says he’s seen nearly 30 teenagers come through local ERs suffering from bad trips on K2 just in the last six weeks! Scalzo says he’s spoken with his counterparts at poison-control centers in Atlanta, New Jersey, and New York City.

First–JWH018 binds to the same receptor as delta9-THC, but lacks the cannabinoid structure, so it is chemically different but biologically similar.

Second—BEWARE! in the past when “legal weed THC” / “crystalline THC” (which is not a crystal but actually an oil) was sold around here it often turned out to be PCP! That may explain the psychotic activation and increased blood pressure seen in the ER. A moderate amount of PCP often causes users to feel detached, distant, and estranged from their surroundings. Numbness of the extremities, slurred speech, and loss of coordination may be accompanied by a sense of strength and invulnerability. A blank stare, rapid and involuntary eye movements, and an exaggerated gait are among the more observable effects. Auditory hallucinations, image distortion, severe mood disorders, and amnesia may also occur. In some users, PCP may cause acute anxiety and a feeling of impending doom; in others, paranoia and violent hostility, and in some, it may produce a psychoses indistinguishable from schizophrenia. Many believe PCP to be one of the most dangerous drugs of abuse. Doses of PCP, equal a drop in blood pressure, pulse rate, and respiration. This may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, flicking up and down of the eyes, drooling, loss of balance,

Is it possible to have some withdrawal symptoms from any addiction, like marijuana and gambling?

I heard that any addiction can cause the brain to release chemicals like dopamine and endorphins, so can going cold turkey cause mild withdrawals like strange dreams, insomnia, restlessness.. etc
