A growing number of U.S. troops are getting high on the herbal mix known as Spice. Smoking the mixture mimics the effects of marijuana. The armed services have investigated more than 1,000 suspected users this year. Mark Ridley, deputy director of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, says the Navy has a zero tolerance policy toward use of spice. Seven hundred sailors were suspected of using it this year. The Air Force has punished nearly 500 users. The Army doesn't track total figures but says it treated 119 soldiers medically for use of Spice. Spice is made from dried leaves of exotic Asian plants.
Huh, no wonder b/c their Commander and Chief is a CRACK-HEAD!
ReplyDeleteOh, for Christ's sake, get a little buzz on once in a while to bust the pressure! All work and no play makes Jack a dull bot!
ReplyDeleteSo, we have found ANOTHER plant that we don't like...I'm telling you, Nature is out to get us. We're gonna need more prisons, more surveillance, more cops, and LOTS more tax dollars to wipe out the latest scourge....
ReplyDeleteRe: 10:15. Obviously, you have no idea as to the job performed by our enlisted personnel. Spice is not equal to a beer or two. This is a dangerous substance that not only endangers the user but also those around him or her!
ReplyDeleteSo glad that the Army isnt taking prior service back due to over staffing. Did 5 1/2 years with 3 deployments and I cant even rejoin. Buy yet they got all these soldiers using drugs....thanks for treating the vets good that want to rejoin.
