I think tbh you're safer with the real thing than these 'legal highs'.

I smoke a bit of pot, I'm not going to lie... but I'd be really unwilling to try anything like these legal highs. I don't want to see anything banned though, I want to see it regulated because people will still take them. It's just now they're are illegal highs.

I've done my fair share of real highs in the past but i would'nt touch these things.They are only legal because they're not banned substances yet.Some of them are really dangerous and imo should be banned for safety.I'm not against legalising and regilating tried and tested real drugs though.They will never be stopped.

The only reason they are legal is because they are simply 100s of chemicals bought legally over the internet, there are 1000s of sites selling them in 1000s of guises, it would be impossible to regulate.
Not sure what a 'real high' is, illegal highs are the same as legal ones chemicals formed into dots or pills by people to make money, they could contain anything and kill you within minutes.

As somene who has lost a son to legal highs i too welcome the news, just sad it's taken so long and others have suffered.



on a side note.. i had to try them after it happened so i would urge anyone not to take them cause i could see my heart beating through my shirt and i almost collapsed in the street.
