Salvia banned in alabama today
    #12439151 - 04/22/10 04:43 PM (13 years, 9 months ago)

My dad just came home and told me that a bill passed banning salvia in alabama today.

votes were 24-0 for the bill. Ha,no one opposed it.:facepalm:


"Alabama Legislature approves ban on sales of salvia, which has effects similar to marijuana
By The Associated Press
April 22, 2010, 1:28PM

MONTGOMERY -- The Alabama Legislature has decided to outlaw several legal products that have effects similar to marijuana.

The Senate voted 24-0 today to give final approval to a bill by Democratic Rep. James Gordon of Saraland that makes it a crime to have salvia divinorum, salvinoroum A, and three chemicals that act like marijuana.

If Gov. Bob Riley signs the legislation, then possession becomes a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail. Selling the products becomes a felony punishable by one to 10 years in prison.

Democratic Sen. Rodger Smitherman of Birmingham said salvia is hallucinogenic, and all the products have become popular with young people looking to get high.

The owner of two adult-oriented shops in Huntsville and Decatur, Sherri Williams, says banning the products will cost her $200,000 in annual sales. She says many of her customers use the products for relief from nausea and stress. "

I assume the hunstville and decatur stores mentioned are of the Zero Gravity chain.

Another sad day for humanity. I do not understand why money and resources go to unnecessary things like this. Banning a harmless medicinal plant.How about concerning yourselves with more important matters?

What a waste of time. The ignorance of this whole thing amuses me.

Hmm... Similarities between marijuana and salvia...

They are both plants
You can smoke them
They are psychoactive
They are green

I ran out..

This sucks, I think it is illegal in 15 or 16 states now.  Not here in Ky yet, but I am sure they will soon follow suit.  I think it was Bill Hicks who said "Making a plant illegal is like saying god made a mistake"

These idiots really need to get their facts right. Mind you, it probably wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference. Votes are all these people care about and there's no better way to gain votes than to place a ban on another illicit substance.

I do not understand why it needed to be banned. Its always about the kids they say. The teenagers and high school students.

The solution is to control the sale to underage people,not make the entire thing illegal. They should start putting the heat on the vendors/shops that sell salvia to anyone no matter of age.

Making it illegal is just going to cause more kids to use it. duh



yay for another helpful, important medicinal plant being criminalized

Salvia is still being sold here.

Also, according to Wiki, JWH is banned here, yet is also being sold less than a mile away from my house at a gas station.

Politicians have to be strict on drug use in those backward states or else they replace you in a heartbeat.

This is why I love maine haha. The people here seem to be a lot more down to earth when it comes to drugs.

Good bye to everyone, my time here was well spent, and I think I have gained a lot from coming here. The internet has become to much of a priority for me, and I think I am ready to let it go for a while. < Who am I kidding...I'm hooked for life.
