Lies, spice(K2) and marketplace sabotage. Media to blame?
K2 had been on the market for a long time. It was often sold on the
internet. It was then advertised through some magazine ads. As soon as
"spice" (K2) gained popularity it was being sold at many gas stations
and flea markets. This product was never sealed in any way. As soon as
spice became really popular they started to lace it. Smoking spice was
like smoking catnip, various videos compared the effects to not even as
strong as tobacco. This is what happened, Once the popularity
rose it was know that there was "good spice" and what legitimate
sellers were providing. See what happened was that once it became
popular they started to flood the market with dangerous research
chemicals. I would compare this to the tactics used by far every time a
government wants to ban a substance. Or if they do not like a people.
They conveniently flooded Syria with a form of research chemical or
prescription speed and codeine after they lost the argument for dropping
bombs on that nation. They use the hard drugs as a form of oppression
and as a weapon against people of different nations. They used it to ban
a perfectly harmless products and destroy an entire market, the K2 or
herbal blend market.The problem was the research chemicals being passed
off as something that they were not. In my book that should be
considered market sabotage. DO not use this post to try to say that it
was the lack of packaging requirements or somehow blame the free market,
I am sternly against that kind of rhetoric. Maybe the RC's wouldn't
have harmed anyone if there were actual suggestions on safe use. But an
over zealous and immature DOJ forbade that and we have the debacle that
has happened. Furthermore ask yourself why the media reacted in the way
that they did. Thank you for reading.
