Saturday, the House passed a bill that bans synthetic cannabinoids also known commonly as "spice" or "K2".

The synthetic marijuana is actually more dangerous than natural marijuana due to its hallucinogenic properties and a range of extreme effects on the user.

Alaska will join many other states banning the production and sale of synthetic marijuana. The bill now awaits the signature of Alaska Governor Sean Parnell in order to be made into law.

This stuff is BS. I've tried Wicked Spice a bunch of times with co-workers and friends and it's been awsome.

This synthetic drug was developed by Dr.John Huffman, Clemson Univ. with grant money from NIDA. Your tax dollars at work. Do not use this synthetic crap, stick with the natural stuff.
