Salvia Divinorum ban in Kansas

Lawmakers and politicians in Oklahoma have passed a new law that will see the hallucinogenic drug Salvia banned. Salvia is a naturally occurring hallucinogenic with potency, when taken in its concentrated form, is similar that of LSD. It is the most potent naturally occurring hallucinogenic known. Its opponents will be glad to see Salvia banned.

Oklahoma joins Kansas and eight other states which currently ban or restrict the use of Salvia in some way. There are another 20 or so states that are considering banning or limiting Salvia. If lawmakers manage to get Salvia banned from the streets, then it may just drive it underground.

Salvia’s notoriety grew a teenager in Delaware tragically took his own life. Key to the suicide, his parents say, was his heavy use of the Salvia herb. There have been no direct (or proved) cases where Salvia has been directly responsible for a death.

Seeing Salvia banned is on the top of many people’s lists, but it is currently legal under federal US drug laws and is widely available from stockists who operate – quite legally – over the Internet.

Users and drug agents agree that chewing or smoking the herb produces hallucinations and can cause a person to become dizzy and impair their speech.
