Dozens of mind-altering substances including herbs, seeds, powders, and extracts from plants are currently being sold online. And selling most of these substances breaks no federal drug laws. To learn more about these substances, PC World went shopping online and purchased nearly two dozen psychoactive products. Editor Ed Albro tells you what we found out.

    You can’t prove that kid wouldn’t have killed himself had he not used Salvia, and the death caused by “poppy seed tea” is the -only- such incident I’ve heard about.

    I also remember reading that his parents knew for some time that he was drinking tea (made from either poppy seed or straw it’s never clear) and dismissed it as a harmless practice which seemed to help him with something, instead of doing some simple research or even asking a f*ing doctor — Idiots.

  2. Suitaful :

    ho ho ho idiots fucking up and making things worse for drug users who are not idiots.

  3. tramboarding911 :

    this is pathetic stupid drugies

  4. dangerlee1946 :

    I love how he says “Drugs so powerful, taking them immobilizes you, blah blah.”, then shows kratom. I’ve had kratom and it’s about as powerful as a cup of coffee. The way people freak out about any potential drug is stupid. Soon they’ll be pushing to illegalize coffee. I think people should be allowed to use drugs unless they show they can’t handle it. Don’t punish the all the responsible people because of a few idiots.

  5. virtualadam33 :

    how many people have sued a supermarket for selling the alcohol that made the drunk driver crash and kill their family member, or walk in front of a car, fall off roof etc.

    we need to teach people what is use and what is abuse.

  6. tatomuck18 :

    Anyone supporting the war on drugs and supports outlawing drugs is supporting dangerous criminal drug gangs!

  7. tatomuck18 :

    How about me make gasoline illegal so people wont drink it?? What about outlawing paint so people dont get sick from eating it? What about making matches illegal so come idiot doesnt like their hair on fire?

    Outlawing drugs is rediculus! You CANT ever stop people from using drugs! Prohibition and the war on drugs is a COMPLETE FAILURE! All it does is make criminal drug cartels richer and richer! They LOVE the war on drugs cause they wouldnt make any profits if it was legal to buy at a store!

  8. tatomuck18 :

    Alcohol and cigarettes kill more people than all the illegal drugs combined! Why isnt anyone trying to outlaw that? ONE PERSON died from salvia and you wanna outlaw that than alcohol kills millions! Before you make salvia illegal, outlaw alcohol and cigarettes FIRST since they KILL MORE PEOPLE!

  9. 0pioid :

    Those parents just want something to blame their sons suicide on. The poor fools don’t know their tools.

  10. brettoner :

    lol salvia wont make u want to kill ur self like its possible but it only last a few mins

  11. guardian85234 :

    and this is another reason to legalize weed ppl love it but dont want to lose their jobs or go to jail so they search for other legal alternatives.

  12. rainsetta :

    They should be kept legal, and some of the weaker drugs that are illegal should be made legal – but on the packaging there should be warnings, and info on what is the safest amount for your weight and the safest way to take it — that way deaths will be prevented

  13. superstatic27 :

    OOOoookaaaay…. now what about the LEGAL but even more unhealthy drugs… alchohol and tobacco? Don’t see you bitching about that, do we? Of course.

  14. PeacefullQ :

    i want to hear a report on ALCOHOL…pooo heds

  15. broken14us :

    Ed looks like a stiff

  16. Rev0luti0nz :

    The poppy tea case. didn’t that involve him drinking like 3.5pnds or 3.5kg’s ?

    that’s a huge tolerance !
    This would of built up over daily use for a while, then more than likely he got a weak batch of seeds so dosed high, then next got a strong set and thought they would of been the same.

    Drug abuse needs to be stopped but the war on drugs is making more criminals then it is stopping.

    Let us think on different levels !
    Many cultures have been using these for thousands of years !

  17. Rev0luti0nz :

    The goverment are making all our plants illegal. there trying to tell us how to live. Chemicals don’t cause abuse, lack of knowledge dose.

    Plants will teach you so much, read up as much as you can.

    Peace !

  18. NSixtyFour :

    OKAY!! i want to hear a report on ALCOHOL. completely legal< you dont even need to go on the internet to buy it! WAYYYYYYYYYYYY more people die from alcohol related deaths than salvia or poppy tea. you’re a joke

  19. HE006 :

    hundreds of thousands of people die from alcohol and tobacco related illnesses. Why are they still legal?

  20. rockstair :

    there’s more than just babbling to it…

  21. Astonish666 :

    deaths are rare. NUFF SAID! Especially after all the deaths we have contributed to alcohol and cigs.

  22. RoboRimes :

    RoboRimes blabs on Part 3 – Imagine drugs so powerful that taking them immobilizes you, makes you lose control of your body and turns you into a babbeling mess. – - – lolz he makes it sound like im not looking for these effects. Salvia isnt responsible for that kids death, the cause was he thought life wasnt worth living, this isnt an effect of salvia, its an effect of a poisoned environment (not actual toxins) -> western culture, shit schools. garbage parenting and worse friends. poor kid.

  23. RoboRimes :

    RoboRimes blabs on Part 2 – omg noo not hallucinations. nausea…k big whoop everyones been sick before it doesnt last. kidney damage, yeah probly but alcohol causes tremendous liver damage but your body can take it as long as your not drinking all the time, and ive never heard of a shroomaholic. hahaha ahhh freedom of speech,its a bitch ain it?

  24. RoboRimes :

    ahhhhh fack aff pcworld, if you dont like these drugs then dont do them. “say Datura is highly toxic, and if you take too much it can cause seizures, coma and death.” thats why you dont blaze all 14gz at once, you dont need alot to get fucked, too large an amount of anything will kill you. “say these muchrooms are potentially dangerous (keyword -> POTENTIALLY) omg i hate it when they say this because all i hear is SCARE TACTIC!
