saliva is not on the banned list anymore as its one of the main ingredients when giving/recieving head

Myth and Magic in athlone never closed, they complied with the law, without any trouble from the gardai, and said they'd have new stuff in "in a few weeks"


this was told to me by the owner a few weeks ago, so he seems to have been telling the truth.

I imagine people who want to use legal highs instead of illegal ones.

mephedrone was very quickly replaced with some other stuff in the uk after their ban so id expect the same here.

If I'm not mistaken the new ban is essentially a blanket ban in that Gardai can shut down a shop if they believe it's selling mind altering substances? So it's either selling **** useless products or it's going to be shutdown.

molloyjazz

still havent got the answer i require, and probably won't untill tomorrow.

They might go back to the way headshops were before it was all about legal highs. Selling bongs, grow lights, rolling papers etc.

timmywex

Most headshops will reopen with new stock soon enough id imagine,


Its only a matter of another few weeks and theyll be gone completly again anyways

Alcohol is a mind altering substance. Don't see any boys in blue shutting down the pubs or off-licenses tho.

We're Irish, obviously it wont be shut down. Probably some clause such that not approved by a certain board or something like that. I don't know what the exact wording is, but there is some way whereby the Gardai can close down headshops once new stuff appears AFAIK.

Nanny state FTW eh, why collect tax when instead you can spend it on the alternatives. Drug dealers!!
