BAN WILL ONLY LEAD TO MORE DANGEROUS SUBSTANCE

Once again the government shows its complete lack of understanding 
concerning drug use in our society.

Whenever you ban a recreational substance, one will replace it that is 
worse: When alcohol was banned, we got white lightning; eradicate marijuana 
fields and you get crack cocaine production; stop LSD and you get Ecstasy. 
"Crank" made in a bathtub is about as bad you can get, but just wait until 
you see what they start cooking up when the ephedra is gone. It won't be 
pretty.
