New, Scary Street Drug Called Flakka or ‘$5 Insanity’ on Rise in U.S.

Q13Fox ^ | David Rose

A dangerous new drug is on the streets — it is called flakka or gravel or “$5 insanity.” And there’s a reason it has that last nickname.

The drug spikes a user’s body temperature to dangerous levels, gives them paranoid hallucinations and makes them incredibly strong.

In one case, a man in Florida ran naked down the street and then tried to have sex with a tree before being arrested. He told cops he was Thor — yes, the mythical god of thunder.

"If this is not illegal, we better pass a law making it illegal to stop people from using it."

While we're at it we better pass a law to ban gasoline.

Folks who sniff that stuff go crazy and after 5 or 6 times are usually dead.

Hundreds every year.

An herbosexual?

I guess that means Tipper Gore was a herbosexual.

Sounds like PCP redux

That’s what I thought as well.

PCP is some really nasty stuff.

back in the day it was “Killer weed”

Basically either parsley or pot laced with PCP.

I knew guys that where addicted to the stuff. I grew out of my druggie days a long long time ago, but I still recall smoking the stuff.

PCP, made you feel like you could do anything, conquer any mental or physical obstacle. I felt like I was three feet off the ground. I did happen to literally ace my geometry test while on PCP. A test that like every other subject in HS I never studied for or did homework.

It’s never been my nature to be aggressive, but I can see how some people get fired up and succumb to aggressive tendencies.

I’d rather take a Lemmon 714, drunk in a pill.

[Politicalkiddo]

Haha. Yes, but I am pretty sure this loser druggie is nothing to look at. *cringe*

Oh, yeah. Super bad. Vomit inducing, even.

You’d be thor too if you tried to have sex with a tree.
