Family members called police on June 14th, saying Daniel assaulted people at the home, chased a neighbor and started barking and growling.

What happened next is horrific.

Witnesses say Daniel grabbed the family dog, beat and strangled it...then started to eat it.

The dog died at the home.

Daniel is believed to have been on a bad trip from ingesting "K-2," a synthetic drug.

Why isn't this getting more news attention? They should be able to figure out what is happening to these people by now.

Excuse me while I go vomit at the very thought of this.

As for what is happening to these people? Easy. They're taking synthetic drugs illegally and because these synthetics are becoming worse and worse concoctions, there are more terrible side effects. Time and time again, the government is making x-drug illegal, so these manufacturers are changing up their formulas to bypass and slide through the loopholes.

update on the homeless man, now without a face. This is so horrific, I don't like to even think about what this man has ahead of him, or must be going thru now.

Miami 'zombie' face-chewing attack victim Ronald Poppo has long road ahead of him, physician says

So, because a natural GOD given substance is illegal, someone goes out and invents a synthetic version with horrible side effects. Yep! Thanks prohibitionists! Keep up that "war on weed."

This is a very valid point.

It's also true that marijuana has been engineered towards greater potency over the years, however it's nowhere near as bad as the synthetic *stuff*.

You also have natural things like hallucinogenic mushrooms etc.

I'm just cautioning that there is a lot of stuff out there that is 100% natural that can really fudge you up and it doesn't make it safe.

Being honest, I can say I did try K2 one time and it was nowhere near a marijuana feeling. Did not relieve any of my back pain (which was why I tried it, thinking it would have been something akin to medicinal marijuana plus it was legal at the time here) but it did make me a weird kind of paranoid and apologetic as hell (I.E. thinking of ways to apologize to the E.R. Doctor if I went). I did not become violent or anything but I can tell you that 1 time was enough to say stay the hell away from it. I would not even call it synthetic marijuana. I am for marijuana on medicinal and free use issues but make this synthetic crap a Schedule 1.

I would never dream of eating shrooms. Hallucinating would not be my idea of fun. Funny though, they do consider weed a mild halucinogen. Probably because it tends to distort perception, time, and sometimes colors. I don't know why, but the color purple always seems to stand out more to me when I've toked.


But as to the synthetic crap? Uh uh. No thanks.

Yeah, and before you had bath salts and sythetics and what not you had people just huffing crap like industrial solvents and what not.

Yay, the joys of permanent brain damage!
