Ban on Bath Salts in the Works

From the people who brought you K2 now comes another form of drug that's getting people high, but remains legal. Bath salts. They're only named like the batch salts you're probably thinking of, but a House Committee yesterday learned the designer drugs give a high similar to methamphetamine and have been linked to deaths across the nation. They're marketed under names like Blue Majic, Blue Silk, Ivory Snow, Vanilla Sky and Hurricane Charlie -- and yes, they're found at the same kind of shops that sold K2, the fake marijuana made illegal last year. The Legislature is working on a measure to make bath salts illegal as well.
