From The Coconino County Alliance Against Drugs:
Arizona Outlaws "Spice"
Spice, a chemically treated blend of herbs marketed as incense but often smoked as an alternative to marijuana, is now illegal in Arizona.
Gov. Jan Brewer signed a bill on Feb. 22 classifying substances used to make spice as dangerous drugs. Anyone caught making, selling or possessing spice can be charged with a Class 2 felony, which carries a minimum four years in prison.
“All law enforcement that we are aware of certainly support the bill and will enforce it and will prosecute under it” said Brewer.
Eleven other states have outlawed spice, and 20 more were considering bans according to a news release from the Governor’s office.
Marijuana Soda?
A company in Soquel, Ca., has launched a line of soda pot – or marijuana soda in February in Colorado according to Time Magazine.
Marketed as Canna Cola, it is the “flagship” cola drink. It contains 35 to 65 milligrams of THC, the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis. The plan is to sell it to medical-marijuana dispensaries in Colorado starting in February. The organic drinks come in eight different flavors (including root beer, pink lemonade or grape). It is being likened to “light beer” and has a mild marijuana taste.
Each bottle will retail for roughly $10.00 to $15.00.
In time, it will most likely be an alternative to smoking cannabis and using pain killers.
