Police here are warning of a new hallucinogenic drug authorities say has begun circulating the St. Louis area.
St. Louis County police say the synthetic drug known as "N-Bomb" has been linked to deaths in other parts of the country including California, Louisiana, Minnesota, North Dakota and Virginia.
The drug, sometimes also called "Smiles" is known as N-Bomb for its chemical compositions, 2C-1-NBOMe or 251NBOMe, and can be extremely potent and dangerous, police say.
Police say the liquid drug is often called "legal acid" and is derived from mescaline. Users typically take the drug by ingesting blotter paper soaked with the liquid, similar to LSD.
Officer Randy Vaughn of the St. Louis County police said county's undercover drug officers have reported purchasing the drug recently.
According to media reports, the drug was banned in Virginia last year and later outlawed in Louisiana after a 21-year-old man died at a New Orleans music festival in November. The man apparently took N-Bomb from a stranger, began convulsing and died a short time later.

In my experience in Southern California and Texas, conservatives beat libertarians all the way around, including guns and military experience.
I can take you to a liberal cocktail party and introduce you to many libertarians, but not many conservatives.
Sodom and Gomorrah had plenty of lefties and libertarians, but they were sure short on conservatives.
Your debating skills are impressive. "You're stupid." Brilliant retort!
Looks like all the dopers and druggies on FR have crawled out from under their rocks. You know what they say; never get between a libertarian and his hookers and blow. Do you know how to create a libertarian? Just take a conservative and remove all common sense.
LSD isn’t a dangerous drug, short or long term. There’s a lot of hype from the drug warriors on it, but it is 100% lies. It’s not even possible to OD on it, that’s how not dangerous it is.

However - I can’t help but wonder if this Apex NC death - attributed up till now to LSD - could be this N-Bomb drug?
Either way - the point is you take street drugs made by who knows who of who knows what composition and who knows what potency - bad things can happen.
Maybe we should try a war on drugs. Seriously, that hasn’t been tried, yet. Open recruiting offices. Make laws more strict. Open season.
I know that. Are you attempting to infer that drug prohibition increases drug crime and other violent crimes all over the world?
Give me something to retort. The post I responded to was the intellectual equivalent of a grunt.
Now you are just being silly, Alaska Wolf. We have DUI laws so that people under the influence of alcohol won’t try to drive a vehicle.
Should we outlaw alcohol?
How do you debate a fart.
Something weird is going on inside you, and I don’t think that I am the only one here wondering what is going on in your head.
Had an aunt in Wisconsin named Marcella that could
drink about anyone under the table..great lady she was
Just wondering where this new drug is coming from
bet its Mexico
DUI is driving under the influence, which includes influence of drugs.
Should we outlaw alcohol?
Whatever floats your boat. It's your time and money.
LOL, just the drug you approve of?
Alcohol is a drug, often a very destructive drug.
Surely you aren't that much of a hypocrite.
It’s called “thinking”. If you ever decide to try it I suggest start slowly. Wouldn’t want you to get a headache.
“Had an aunt in Wisconsin named Marcella that could
drink about anyone under the table..great lady she was”
Darn, she must have gotten my share of drinking ability as well as her own. My husband used to say he could have saved a lot of money if he had met me when he was young.
The clock is ticking until Obama appoints an “N-Czar”...
People better be careful to pronounce it correctly.
You know that freerepublic discourages personalizing things, but so far, you keep posting child like insults at me, for no evident reason, and with no explanation.
It sure isn’t related to the thread.
Meanwhile, the original argument was that prohibition of any drug never works. People who want it will get it.
People who don't want it, won't buy it. Period.
It’s related to your insulting and provocative post. You set the rules pal.
From day one on FR the drug warrior argument has rarely risen above that level.
