U.S. legislators are sharpening their quills ahead of the battle to demonize Salvia.
Salvia, currently still legal in many U.S. States, is a hallucinogenic similar to LSD and PCP. It’s use can induce a feeling of weightlessness or the feeling of being able to morph with inanimate objects. The drug, it is claimed, is more potent than marijuana, despite the effects lasting only an hour or so.
Mexican-grown Salvia – which can be purchased openly over the Internet from a number of entirely legal sources – is available both in leaf form (used for smoking) or as a liquid extract: users can pop Salvia in their coffee and experience the effects.
The battle against illegalization will of course be one sided and some states have completed the short road to banning the substance already. Others, like Florida, are introducing the necessary bills as I write. No one knows how long the drug will be available. Watch this space!
