Where I grew up it was the teenagers. They spray paint into an empty coke can, then pretend to drink while they inhale deeply.

But before too long, they were so stoned they would walk around with the can held up to their noses, not realizing that everyone now knew what they were doing.

When they made it harder to get spray paint, the started huffing GASOLINE!

"GASOLINE!"

Exactly. In Northern Canada, kids huffing gasoline while their parents get drunk is the Number One social problem.

Gasoline will always be generally available. Making gasoline illegal to possess is 'a bridge too far', imo.

Prohibition CANNOT be the solution to substance abuse.
