Kratom being targeted

I've been using Kratom on a near-daily basis for several years now. And while I am 100% opposed to government attempts to regulate/ban it's use and sale, I can say with absolute certainty and sincerity that it is a *very* addictive drug. Granted, I started out using the enhanced/extract stuff - specifically Ultra Enhanced Indo, which is the strongest (and most expensive) extract on the market. Perhaps if I'd started out taking the leaf/powder, I wouldn't have developed such a serious habit. But that wasn't really an option for me, since the whole reason I began using Kratom was as a replacement for an equally-addictive narcotic (morepheen), and for that to work, it had to be strong (that's my retrospective rationalization at least; and I'm pretty sure it's true /default_wink.png). And it worked! I was able to quit. 

This is one of the most common - and persuasive - arguments in favor of keeping Kratom legal: namely, that because of it's narcotic-like effects, it can be extremely effective in helping people end their addictions to stronger, more dangerous, illegal drugs. This was true for me, and I'm sure it's true for many others. But it's not as if Kratom allows you to quit using altogether - at least, not in my case. In truth, what it allows is the substitution of one addition for another. That's a real and important benefit, and one of many reasons it should remain legal. But for those who haven't taken Kratom, it's important to know and be forewarned as to it's habit-forming properties.

This is a very real and serious matter.  Florida introduced a bill to ban kratom that did not pass but it took the efforts of many people to give testimonial, Botanical Defense Fund as well as American Kratom Association lobbying against the ban,  New Jersey has a pending bill as we speak.  There was a very biased article written by a uninformed journalist recently in Kentucky to which a legislator replied "we must not get behind Tennessee in banning this harmful substance" (paraphrase).

I URGE anyone who care about the ongoing legality of kratom to pen a generic testimonial to email these lawmakers.  It doesn't matter if you live in the threatened state or not because once a few key states (like FL and/or NJ) start banning kratom, there will be a snowball effect.  If anyone is interested, I will be happy to get the names and emails.  As evidenced by Florida, our voice does matter. I would urge you to keep any email polite, understanding these state legislators only know what unscrupulous journalist write. They need information, not a lecture.

Edit to add:  I did not read the links above so forgive me if I have restated the obvious.  I am just kind of passionate about this.

  6. R @ rhodium: hello all thanks for being moved to the apporved section!
  7. P @ Poppycock: @Mammasboi123 thank you, I’m still getting the hang of using this platform. Sometimes when I try to search something it will come back with nothing or tell me what I typed in wasn’t long enough or something
  8. M @ Mammasboi123: Also, keep in mind that if a thread topic doesn’t already exist for a particular mag after searching for it, for a particular msg you’ve got questions on, you can always open a new thread under the appropriate section to get member feedback. I only mention doing it this other way due to there being a rule against members/vendors advertising or soliciting mags via the Shout Box. So I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets removed at some point.
  9. M @ Mammasboi123: @Poppycock, I would encourage you or any other member looking for current options for various mags to first check if an existing thread has already been created on the topic by using the Search bar found on the upper right corner of the site. For example, here’s a recent thread that was posted just a couple months ago that shows up when I type in ‘5APB’ to the search bar: https://drugbuyersguide.info/threads/4-fma-and-6-apb.11276/#post-268359.
