To a point, I agree with you.

Where I used to live a bunch of kids died from huffing refrigerant. They guessed wrong and found an ammonia system.

You can only protect the stupid so far.

So it’s the bath salts fault and not the person who decided to “inject” them? Shouldn’t we ban Bleach also based on that same premise?

“I heard those bath salts are pretty good at eliminating the odor of cat urine...”

Yeah, do a couple of lines and I bet you can’t smell anything!
(sorry, couldn’t resist)

You could be right though.

——I wonder who the brain dead idiot was that first tried to snort salts-——

Word on the street is that he was a frustrated toad licker

I saw a doctor on TV last week whose son committed suicide related to these salts. Reminds me of Art Linklatter’s son “flying”, committing suicide while high.
You don’t have to be competing for the Darwin award, you can have that addiction gene.

I am aware of that gene. Intimately aware. I didn't ever blame the chemicals I did in my youth, I blamed myself. Banning bath salts because some idiot decided to inject them is ridiculous.
