 Lies, spice(K2) and marketplace sabotage. Media to blame?

K2 had been on the market for a long time before the attack on the product by the media. 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. Much of the product's were never sealed in any way. As soon as spice became more popular It was more and more commonly laced . When it was not laced spice was frequently referred to as "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 known that there was "good spice"(Laced herbal admixture,"spice") and the product that legitimate sellers were providing. So what happened was that once it became popular they started to flood the market with dangerous research chemicals. I would say this reminds me of the tactics used most of the time when a government wants to ban a substance. Or if they do not like a people. They conveniently flooded Syria with a form of prescription speed(http://world.time.com/2013/10/28/syrias-breaking-bad-are-amphetamines-funding-the-war/) and codeine after they lost the argument for dropping bombs on that nation. The nation was flooded with drugs right after elements within the US government were denied the ability to bomb and subsequently go to war with Syria. Some of the main issues with our policy's are how the war on drugs is being conducted, the hypocrisy of the war and the perceived harms that just aren't there that are continuously played upon. Which sometimes, like in the case of Syria leave you speculating on if they are creating the harms in the first place. They use the hard drugs as a reason to ban many possibly beneficial substances and now plants(nature itself). They used it to ban a perfectly harmless product and destroy an entire market, the "K2" or herbal blend market.The problem was that the research chemicals were being passed off as something that they were not. Yet the media completely omitted the fact and ran a lie campaign to get the product banned in it's entirety, in my book that should be considered market sabotage. DO not  try to say that it was the lack of packaging requirements or somehow blame the free market, I am not for that kind of rhetoric. Maybe the RC's wouldn't have harmed anyone if there were actual suggestions on safe use, proper measurements for dosage. But an over zealous and immature DOJ and FDA forbade that from happening with their unreasonable and draconian stance regarding these plants and their regulatory requirements, now the research chemicals are blending with the stance that the only way that these plants be allowed on the market be through their not for human consumption policy. Then they went along with the new madness from the media  and we have the debacle that has happened. One more thing, ask yourself why the media reacted in the way that they did. This time it wasn't reefer madness, it was just madness.

 JWH, spice Deception

K2 was a plant mixture, not a drug. Many of the later products on the market after the media blitz may had been sealed but were still JWH. When it was originally marketed, the original product was indeed just a plant mixture. No JWH in it. Yet most of these articles you find say K2-spice drug. It was an attack on a company. A specific company, as well as a market. Maybe the reports said it was K2-spice so as to attack the company that may have been selling the legitimate research chemical free product. I don't know, but I can tell you that the problem is and was with the issue of a natural legal product being laced with a product not listed in it's description. The way that media attacked the product in general instead of pointing out what made it dangerous shows how they abused their power, used it to force legislature based on misnomer's, outright half truths and lies. They used the legislative bodies to attack a demographic of people that uses or used a specific product. Not to truly find the truth, they abused their journalistic power as well as their integrity to create an entirely new sector of criminal for governmental agency's to go after. The thing is, it was the children that they attacked with this legislation. It was directed at the right's of the young adult (18+) population and the teenagers that then found alternative ways to manufacture the drug whilst being made illegal. They created a new demographic of criminal.

They attacked an entire market because they weren't willing to enforce laws against bad apples. Maybe they did it because they couldn't enforce the rules as effectively as they wanted to. No matter the excuse they went over the head of due process and they misled the people yet again. They SHOULD be tried for their actions. They SHOULD own up to what they have done and restore the freedoms of those affected. As well as reverse their court decisions against these natural products.  Any media organizations should have to reverse their defamatory stances or forfeit their licenses and face charges of slander. They lied, the laws that ensued after the media reports are based on those lies and they should not stand.
