The Terror of Bath Salts

People are snorting bath salts, it seems. Law enforcement officials are calling this a new public health problem.

I call it a stupidity problem.

Bath salts are great. Especially the scented ones. The idea that people are not going to be able to use bath salts anymore because some idiots decided to snort them is ridiculous.

At what point are we as a society not responsible for protecting the self-destructive idiots among us? And of course "public health" means some government agency is going to have to shoulder the costs of the "Don't Snort the Bath Salts" program. Isn't tax money better spent on schools and nutrition for children?

Note to self: Don't drink lighter fluid either.
