Spice =/= other synthetic drugs. Spice is not addictive (At least not to the scale of amphetamines or opiates). Spice is simply a cheap, legal alternative to marijuana. The high is not the same, no, but it is in the same vein and lasts for a very short period of time (compared to marijuana), making it a good alternative for people who cannot smoke marijuana for whatever reason.

Thanks for the clarification. I don't know much about that stuff.

I'm just not buying that that crap is an alternative to pot, I'm sorry. I don't think that the two are in any way related. I still think that the people who have tried this crap would have if pot were legal or not. Even if you are in the Army you can still smoke every once in a while. As long as you aren't consuming marijuana excessively it doesn't stay in your system for all that long.

From what I hear the high isn't even the same and the side effects are far worse.
