PIONEER BANS SYNTHETIC DRUGS

Pio­neer has now voted to ban the man­u­fac­ture, sale, dis­tri­b­u­tion and pos­ses­sion of syn­thetic drugs and syn­thetic drug looka­likes.

On Mon­day the vil­lage coun­cil reports the unan­i­mous vote to pass a new ordi­nance designed to make sub­stances known as syn­thetic mar­i­juana, K2, spice, bath salts, pot­pourri and oth­ers ille­gal, after reports indi­cate that those drugs have lead to deaths.

Accord­ing to the Bryan Times, Pio­neer Vil­lage Solic­i­tor Tom Thomp­son said that the word­ing of the ordi­nance will remain effec­tive regard­less of changes that may come about in the chem­i­cals used to make the var­i­ous drugs.
