It has been a question in many minds that why would someone want to ban growing Salvia Divinorum? Until now, there have been no health issues reported by hospital or apothecary staff which might have caused by Salvia plant, nor there have been any disturbances in the community reported by any policemen, that has made out of pyschologic shifts or disphoria caused by it. But still, it has been occured that, in Kentucky, growing Salvia Divinorum or any other Salvia species intentionally, are banned and posession of it considered criminal. It is a mystery still that if there have been any citizen taking this kind of matter into court of law and asking for its ban or it came directly from the government suddenly. Either way, it is quite obvious that Salvia Divinorum does not cause any unrest among people who recreationally use it.

Salvia Divinorum, is as indicated in name, is a type of the Salvia plants, which are also, a member of mint family. It is an easy-to grow plant who likes tempratures between 15-30 and doesn't need or want much direct sunlight, instead, feeds with its shadow. It looks nice when it has flowers on it, and also has another thing, which probably caused the problem, eventhough it should not have, that Silvinorin which is an unique compound it contains by %0.18 mass is pyschoactive therefore, there happens to be recreational users of it. However, i
ts strongest effects lasts too short to be able to cause any problem, and after effects are in fact, generally in good way, as it gives peace of mind and understanding of pyschology as well as a nice insight. Since there have been ornamental usage of these herbs for centuries, it is a part of most american tribesman culture. Since it is such a deep parameter in a culture, it cannot be harmful. Even, in some perspective, banning Salvia use do mean banning application of prequisites of certain culture. Nothing hazardous may ever be deep in a culture that has been proved persistent. And this a matter which exactly is carved into that culture. Why do not let native americans live by their culture? Considering their ways of living a crime, means considering their life crime. Which is against rights of man. Is this justice? Is this the American way? If it were an European cultural activity, one concerning white people, i am sure thousands will go on strike, demanding their rights and freedom. But why it is always natives that suffer, in USA?

We must go for an uprising for fellow natives' sake and help them recieve their rights properly and use them as they wish. No human being on earth deserve to be treated like that. Which of you would be contend if someone were to accuse you of committing crime when you merely went to the church to pray? Even that this weed actually do give wisdom, peace and understanding. Something, that we see white men in Kentucky must learn. Wisdom, above all.
