It isn't marijuana at all. The plant material used depends upon the product, but is other herbal material (damania, skullcap, etc) that has a chemical infused into it. The chemical(jwh-018 is one of the jwh-xxx chemicals used) is a cannaboid receptor agonist, meaning that is engages cannaboid receptors in a similar way to THC in marijuana. I'm not a chemist, but I doubt it could even be considered an analogue of THC as, otherwise, the DEA would make a case under the Analogue Act against suppliers (as they have against other 'research chemical' suppliers).Johnny Freedomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-80780453042257885872011-03-25T13:29:27.317-05:002011-03-25T13:29:27.317-05:00Maybe they will start a K2 drug task force to deal...Maybe they will start a K2 drug task force to deal with this growing problem.....lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-87243990027536218922011-03-25T11:28:07.671-05:002011-03-25T11:28:07.671-05:00If K2 is the same as Spice, the Feds are already s...If K2 is the same as Spice, the Feds are already stepping in to outlaw it.

I heard the testimony about graffiti, K2 (chemical is sprayed on incense that mimics MJ) and auto burg. and all the LE's said the nbr. solved is very small. Enhancements are not going to lower the acts. The parent of the boy who suffered a heart attack after smoking K2 wouldn't want him to go to prison, just the person who sells it, but we all know about unintended consequences - how will they feel if he is arrested for selling it after it can't be purchased at the local convenience story? Yes, it's dangerous, but ask the child why he is using. The chemical can be "sprayed" on something else and we're off again with another enhancement. Why does your child want to use it in the first place is the question you should be spending your time on and working to solve. Sometimes I just want to turn off and drop out. The problem isn't K2 it's wanting laws to fix your kid.Texas Mavericknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-66960964365474939632011-03-25T08:15:57.707-05:002011-03-25T08:15:57.707-05:00K2?
