The only people who smokes that stuff is people who don't have access to weed. Miley, I'm sure has money and access, so I seriously doubt she was smoking the fake stuff. You've been had.

This comment makes zero sense and shows you have no clue what your talking about.Salvia is insanely more psychoactive than pot and could never be considered some kind of cheap substitute it's completely different.I think you may be thinking of K2 or another synthetic cannabinoid.

Some idiots who write blogs attempt to veil their biases in pretentious language. However, David Freeman made no such effort. While other writers diligently reference different points of view, he has simply copy-pasted all of his information from the DEA's website. Beyond the fact that it is an organization that diseminates propaganda, he has referenced it as a scientific source. Morever, There is a difference between "use" and "abuse". Even if it is an illicit substance, simply using it does not mean you are using it to the point it has taken over your life. Finally, if anything, every stupid article about this event will make more, not less, kids try salvia.

"Abuse" of a substance like this means using it for recreational purposes. In fact, I'm not sure if there is a "use" for such drugs.

California

On February 5, 2007 Assembly Member Anthony Adams (R) proposed Assembly Bill 259.[64] The bill wording was amended on March 12, 2007 to include salvinorin A. The bill proposed adding Salvia divinorum and salvinorin A to Califorina's list of Schedule I controlled substances.

The bill was referred to the Committee on Public Safety with a due date for public hearing on March 27, 2007. [4] The bill analysis [5] indicated that opposition to the bill was registered by, among others, Daniel Siebert and the Drug Policy Alliance. The bill was defeated in Committee by a 3-2 vote. A reconsideration was granted and the second hearing was on January 15, 2008.[64]

The bill wording was significantly amended on January 7, 2008. The proposal for Schedule I classification was dropped and replaced instead with restrictions on the sale to minors. Section 379 to be added to the penal code - "Every person who sells, dispenses, distributes, furnishes, administers, gives, or offers to sell, dispense, distribute, furnish, administer, or give Salvia divinorum or Salvinorin A, or any substance or material containing Salvia divinorum or Salvinorin A, to any person who is less than 18 years of age, is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding six months, or by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment."

The amended bill was passed out from the Assembly Committee on Appropriations to 'Consent Calendar' with a recommendation 'Do Pass' (Ayes 16, Noes 0) on January 24, 2008, having passed the Assembly Committee on Public Safety (Ayes 7, Noes 0) the previous week.[65]

Adams said he was initially asked to address the issue of Salvia divinorum by officials from the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. Lt. Barbara Ferguson, the department's legislative liaison, said "I am not real happy with the limited bill that we have. Our intention, when we started this, was to make it completely illegal. ... But because of how liberal the legislature is here in California, that was impossible to do. There will come a time when we can completely outlaw it here in California."[66]

It was reported that Anthony Adams had met Kathy Chidester during discussions over the bill. Kathy Chidester believes salvia was a contributing factor to her son's suicide, which occurred in January 2006. She argued for an outright ban in her home state of Delaware. Schedule I classification was introduced there three months after the teenager's death in the form of "Brett's law". Since then Kathy Chidester has campaigned more widely to see bans introduced in other states.[66]

Adams's amended bill passed unanimously in the Assembly on January 29, 2008 (Ayes: 76, Nays: 0). It passed in the Senate on July 2, 2008 (ayes: 23, nays: 5). Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) signed the bill into law on July 22, 2008. It went into effect on January 1, 2009.[

wow you should be neutered. If miley cyrus is raising your kid instead of you, than you shouldn't be allowed to reproduce. A parent is someone who is responsible, unlike you.
