Now drug pushers have joined the ranks of marketers to increase sales of their poison to children. How many more young people, who otherwise might never have tried cocaine or meth, will fall victim to addictive drugs just because they've been flavored and wind up needing drug rehab?
According to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), colored/flavored meth has been found in Nevada, Washington, Idaho, Texas, New Mexico, Missouri, Minnesota and California. Hollywood gossip web sites are reporting that flavored drugs are exploding on the local club scene. Under the new Saving Kids from Dangerous Drugs Act, simply making or possessing candy flavored versions of street drugs would be enough for an arrest that, upon conviction, would carry the same doubled (or tripled for a repeat offense) penalties now handed down to drug dealers who knowingly sell to minors.
