Salvia Divinorum IS the next marijuana.

So, I received a link today to an article regarding a topic that I’ve read plenty about before, the criminalization of salvia divinorum. As can be expected from the media these days, the article was written in that oh-so pleasant fashion that strikes fear into the hearts of the stupid and ill-informed. Entitled "Is Salvia the Next Marijuana?", the article contained many award-winning passages of honesty, such as:

"I got some hostile e-mails from people who sold these products," Strain said. "You don’t make everybody happy when you outlaw drugs. You save one child and it’s worth it."

and

"Salvia’s short-lasting effects and the fact that it is currently legal may make it seem more appealing to teens, lawmakers say. In the Delaware suicide, the boy’s mother told reporters that salvia made his mood darker but he justified its use by citing its legality. According to reports, the autopsy found no traces of the drug in his system, but the medical examiner listed it as a contributing cause."

So, ONE kid who had used salvia at some point in his past kills himself, and now salvia is a contributer to suicide?

WARNING PARENTS OF LITTLE ANGELS!: THERE IS AN EVIL PLANT, 100 TIMES STRONGER THAN MARIJUANA THAT IS INFILTRATING YOUR LITTLE CHILD’S FRAGILE EXISTENCE.

AND...

THEY WILL KILL THEMSELVES IF THEY SMOKE IT.

How many times has someone blown themselves up in the name of Mohammed?

How many times has some whacked parent killed their kids so that they could be with Jesus?

You think there will ever be a discussion about making Christianity or Islam illegal?

Of course not! Those are good things! Clean things! Evil, dirty, mind altering substances must be eradicated from this earth! The only "spirituality" that matters is available to all in a nicely packaged book already!

Anyway, back to salvia. As always, you’ve gotta go to one of those local TV networks to get the really good propaganda pieces. This whole article is a fucking hit piece.

"It’s intense. I don’t know how to compare it to anything. It kind of freaked me out," explains a user. "I guess maybe when I first got it I didn’t really believe in it. I was like, what, over the counter?"

And then many choice quotes from the evil, smoke shop running DRUG DEALER:

"Trippin’ awesome. I guarantee you’ll be back for it, once you use it," says a valley smoke shop owner.

"If I had to describe, it would be like THC, shrooms, whippets all together you know," is how that same shop owner earlier described Salvia.

And of course, gotta throw in the ole’:

This confident smoke shop owner’s location? Right in front of a local high school. And we found it prominently displayed in a store at a local mall.

This next little blurb also surely works wonders in the minds of an uniformed parent:

So why is it legal to sell something that causes people to see six arms? Something that alters your perception so dramatically you’re warned to have a sober sitter with you when you smoke it?

"It’s a warning for parents about a little known herb that’s being sold across the valley to teenagers. The herb is called Salvia and it can produce a dangerous high."

I, Viktor Wilt, proudly supply Salvia Divinorum to the public in the smokeshop that I manage. EVERY customer who inquires about salvia is thoroughly informed on safe use of the product, as well as HIGHLY encougared to read as much material regarding the product as possible before using it. YES, salvia is a VERY powerful substance. However, just because something can induce profound changes in consciousness DOES NOT mean that it is DANGEROUS, nor that it needs to be outlawed.

I have yet to, in 3 years of selling salvia, hear of a SINGLE bad situation that arose from salvia use by one of our customers, other than the fact that MOST people don’t enjoy the effects. Salvia is not the type of substance that has a potential for abuse. Unfortunately, since the media and the "experts" they interview have no personal experience with salvia, they have no understanding of how salvia works. When used properly, salvia is a very spiritual experience, it’s not something that you take when you’re partying with your friends. It’s a very interpersonal thing. The potentional for abuse would be eliminated the first time some group of people smoked salvia with the intention of getting a marijuana-like high. Salvia is not necessarily a pleasant experience, at least not in the same sense that smoking marijuana is. If you’re into self-introspection, a feeling of rebirth, and a greater understanding of your consciousness being fed to you in a very unconventional manner, then it could be something for you. Read "The Psychedelic Experience" by Timothy Leary, and you’ll understand the depths to which salvia can take you. It’s very unfortunate for those of us who have used salvia responsibly for many years, that due to fear inducing propaganda being spread by the media and the police, a very special part of nature may now be taking the same path that marijuana did. And truly, for what purpose?

I really think that the powers that be want to keep us glued to our TVs in a stupified state, without any care to learn anything about this world for ourselves. People drive irresponsibly, and harm others in the process, so are we supposed to ban automobiles because there are stupid people out there? Have you seen the movie "Grizzly Man"? Should we make grizzly bears illegal because that guy got his stupid ass consumed by one? Making drugs illegal doesn’t make drugs go away. I don’t even want to go into the bullshit behind the war on drugs and it’s pointlessness, as it’s covered every single day on DIGG. "The War on Drugs needs to end" is just about as tired of a subject as I can think of. Everyone knows it’s bullshit at this point, yet you still see the government shitting out bullshit "facts" at any chance they get to put fear into stupid people who can’t think for themselves.

And that is why salvia is going to be the next marijuana. Not in the sense that the media is trying to say it is, but rather in the sense that it is going to be taken away from us on bullshit, dishonest terms, by a government that feels the need to regulate every aspect of our lives.

So, when your state starts trying to push bullshit vice laws, STAND UP AND SAY NO! We don’t have to just sit by and watch as one more right is taken away from us.

You should NOT feel ashamed if you smoke salvia. You should NOT feel ashamed if you smoke marijuana. YOU ARE NOT A DIRTY, BAD PERSON, JUST BECAUSE THE TV SAYS YOU ARE. Be proud of yourself. Take a look in the mirror, and at everything you do. Do you consider yourself a bad person? Does smoking a little pot at home make you a dirty criminal? FUCK NO IT DOESN’T. Be proud! It’s socially acceptable to be a proud fan of Budweiser, so if weed’s your thing, and you’re a responsible user, fuck the media, fuck the law, be proud of it! There’s nothing wrong with smoking marijuana! If everyone in this country who smoked marijuana was open about it, I think change would start to occur at a much quicker rate.

You can’t be arrested for stating that you enjoy smoking marijuana. Sure, they can get you for intoxication (which is bullshit btw) if you say you JUST GOT DONE smoking marijuana. But, if you don’t have any on you, say that you enjoy it as much as you please. Put a big fat pot leaf on the back of your vehicle, and when you get pulled over, the interior of your car torn to shreds, and you’re sober and clean, ask the cop why he has to waste his time doing shit like that when he could be fighting real crime.

SHAKE UP THE SYSTEM PEOPLE. YOU HAVE A VOICE, THERE IS NOTHING TO FEAR.

STAND!
