It's a plant that gives pleasure, but — horrors! — it's not yet illegal.
Naturally, that must be rectified, so lawmakers are indeed attempting to stamp out salvia divinorum.

If they just let the marketplace alone, salvia would go away of its own accord.
I had the misfortune of trying it about a year ago. It is the most unpleasant feeling ever for about 10 minutes, and then an hour of feeling like shit.
If they want kids to stay off drugs, they should just give every 8th grader a hit of salvia. I guarantee you, none of them will ever want to do drugs ever again.

Seems cops are arresting people for it before it even becomes illegal. They must be bored......

Isn't there enough crime out there to keep them busy, rather than arresting people who are not doing anything wrong ?

It's far easier to arrest someone on this stuff, than to chase real bad guys. Easy to keep up those quota numbers.
