There are naysayers who commonly respond to any posting about the dangers of these drugs. These naysaters want the opportunity to get high, while ignoring the dangers associated with these substances. The Associated Press has published an article that begins with:
"Synthetic substances that mimic marijuana, cocaine and other illegal drugs are making users across the nation seriously ill, causing seizures and hallucinations and even killing some people.The products are often packaged as incense or bath salts and can be obtained for as little as $10 at many head shops. As more people experiment with them, the results are becoming evident at hospitals: a sharp spike in the number of users who show up with problems ranging from labored breathing and rapid heartbeats to extreme paranoia and delusions. The symptoms can persist for days."
