IFWT_Synthetic_Weed_Hospitalization

Let’s be real, if you’re smoking that fake ish, you’re not a real smoker, but then again, that is why over the course of a week; more than 160 individuals visited the hospital. “Synthetic drugs are anything but harmless,” Governor Andrew Cuomo said last week.” This rash of severe health emergencies across the state is direct proof.”

Some years ago (not that many) I know that Jersey was selling synthetic weed under the name Buddha Bud, however other names such as “K2” or “Spice” have since surfaced. The Spice, which some of these individuals smoked, showed common side effects like anxiety; rapid heart rate and apparently made time go by “really really really really slow.” While most of these hospital visits turned into nothing major, Cuomo is stressing that the inhalation of synthetic weed must be stopped.

Originally created as research chemicals and never intended for human consumption, states have been cracking down on the sale of synthetic cannabinoids for several years. New York outlawed imitation marijuana in 2012, and the Drug Enforcement Agency added some of the most common iterations of the drugs’ active ingredients to its list of prohibited chemicals in 2011. But, somehow, making these drugs illegal did not banish them from the face of the earth. Surprised?

Just so you SPICE smokers know, the stuff is filled with a massive amount of chemicals; chemicals NOT found in regular Mary Jane.

KIDS, DON’T DO DRUGS!
