'Legal highs' set to be banned

brid i thought it was minging too but I think turnip is minging. all the downsides of real food with none of the upsides. Don't think it should be banned though. There are (unbelievably) turnip fans out there.
And if everybody thought it was minging nobody would buy it.
too much banning goes on in this country.
I was staying in Leeds last week and a leaflet came through the door from the police saying they had made an order that no one between the ages of 12 and 16 was allowed on the streets between 9pm and 6am subject to a fine of up to £5000 or imprisonment. They had had reports from" two or more residents " of anti-social behavior. Wha??

Now that is mad

What kind of moron downs a pint of vodka? A dead one obviously haha.

DXM has been about for years though

The Wikipedia entry for Absinthe is interesting in the context of the banning of legal highs
"Absinthe originated in the canton of Neuchâtel in Switzerland. It achieved great popularity as an alcoholic drink in late 19th- and early 20th-century France, particularly among Parisian artists and writers. Owing in part to its association with bohemian culture, consumption of absinthe was opposed to by social conservatives and prohibitionists. Baudelaire, Verlaine, Rimbaud, Toulouse-Lautrec, Modigliani, van Gogh, Oscar Wilde, were all notorious "bad men" of that day who were (or were thought to be) devotees of the Green Fairy.
Absinthe has been portrayed as a dangerously addictive psychoactive drug. The chemical thujone, present in small quantities, was blamed for its alleged harmful effects. By 1915, absinthe had been banned in the United States and in most European countries including France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Although absinthe was vilified, no evidence has shown that it is any more dangerous than ordinary spirits. Its psychoactive properties, apart from those of alcohol, have been much exaggerated.
A revival of absinthe began in the 1990s, when countries in the European Union began to reauthorize its manufacture and sale. As of February 2008, nearly 200 brands of absinthe were being produced in a dozen countries, most notably in France, Switzerland, Spain, and the Czech Republic."

some things change and some things they stay the same
