New Salvia Law (Texas)

Quote:
A new set of laws in the State of Texas has gone into effect starting September 1st. One of those laws now makes Salvia, a popular hallucinogenic herb often smoked among teens illegal.
Before this law went into effect, Salvia Divinorum was easily accessible online and over the counter at head shops. But now, it will become more difficult to get a hold of. Those caught with this substance will face jail time.
"I think it's a good thing it's illegal. They don't need to be smoking all that stuff. There's no telling what's in it" said Cody Demoss, a Texoma resident.
With its hallucinogenic effects, Salvia has become a growing problem for law enforcement officials and parents.
"We can't stop them if they're gonna continue selling it. They're handicapping us as parents by making it available to children and to people who are willing to sell it to children on the outside" said Valerie Lewis, a concerned parent.
Although this law is a step in the right direction, parents are worried about how far some teens will go to get a hold of this product.
"I think it's gonna be an underground market that's gonna be opening up a lot more for this type of substance. The more you want something the pricier it's gonna get. Children are gonna start doing things they normall wouldn't do for it" said Jesus Vasquez, parent of one boy.
Another Texoma parent, Roy Pierce agrees. "I really do think they'll try to do everything they can to get a hold of that because they're addicted to it. They wana do it" he said.
So in order to keep Salvia away from teens and young children, parents say it's all up to them.
"You have to watch who your children hang out with, what they do after school. Try to give them extra-curricular activities. If not, they're just gonna follow and do what they wana do" said Vasquez.
"It's up to the parents. They should instill and talk to their children about these things. That's what a parent does" said Texoma resident Margaret Testa.
Under this new measure, Salvia will be placed under Penalty Group 3 in the Texas Controlled Substances Act which is punishable by a State Jail Felony.

"there's no telling what's in it." Maybe not for an imbecile law maker, but the rest of us are quite aware that a box of salvia contains... Salvia

two states legalized marijuana
so of course the most red state in all of America is going to fight back by making salvia illegal. Honestly, i know it shouldnt be illegal, but i dont think head shops should be allowed to sell it. So many videos on the internet of people smoking this stuff... it is a sacred plant that has a real history of shamanic usage. Leave it to teenage Texans to disrespect a religious sacrament.

sorry, i must of came off as a dick 
no disrespect for texas, my brother was born in texas and i love king of the hill and austin.
they made salvia illegal in florida too, so we dropped the ball over here too.
much love for Texas, while I was in Austin i got to see peyote growing for the first and only time. Thank you Texas, sorry salvia is illegal over there now, hope you guys got your salvia cutting before this law passed.

Texas logic is fucking retarded.
they act like there are additives in salvia like cigarettes. wtf.
addiction... i suppose its possible, but I've never heeard of someone selling all their shit or robbing someone to support their salvia addiction.
and you have to be 18 or accompanied by an adult to enter a head shop. How the hell are these parents gonna do any better keeping an eye on their kids if they are oblivious to the fact they somehow walked into a headshop and bought some or had a friend get it. they should have been doing what the article suggested before it got to this point, you know, be a fucking parent.
wth texas!

This is nothing but a blatent attempt to keep mylie cyrus from coming to texas and corrupting inocent texas youth with radical views and the hottest new dance moves. We see what salvia did to her, right?
-------------------- Rocks speak to me, and tell me this: The Hell Creek formation is a gigantic slab of rocks that covers several western states. It contains an account of the dinosaurs' demise. In the late Cretaceous period, the first Cannabis species appear, and soon after, all the non-bird dinosaurs disappeared. Obviously, marihuana killed the dinosaurs. That giant meteor that smacked the yucatan peninsula right afterwards, coincidence.

Oh well. Its terrifying as shit, so its hard to even use for a spitual psychedelic experience (or a good one anyway) It basically rips your mind into little pieces and lets them burn in hell for a few minutes.

Its not for everyone. Salvia is for those who are resourceful with information and can put the peaces together after the trip. Its only confusing if your confused in life.
My trip of 60x took me to a factory that showed the repetition in my everyday drug use. Nothing is random except randomness.

Good to see the former Bush and Reagan supporters are still firmly clamped to the underside of the GOP's nutsack. "Let's not worry about violent militias a stone's throw away trying to get more guns from and push more drugs to America. No, let's find another fucking plant to demonize in an attempt to control more people. Christ forbid somebody actually tries to explore their consciousness a little bit and has what could only horrifyingly be described as a meaningful experience. *Gasp* What kind of a world would it be where one person is different than other. *Shudders*"
