I've found the face eating attack weird and interesting too.
I think calling bath salts the new LSD is kind of like when spice first started hitting the media, it was titled the new or legal cannabis.
We have a habit of doing that.. In the fashion industry, every season sees X color as the new black. In entertainment and sports, X performer/athlete is the new performer/athlete X.
I've only done a little reading so far... bath salts sound more like a stumulant that can cause LSD like effects like hallucinating, and LSD is a hallucinogen that has some stimulant qualities. Not exactly the same, but yeah, close enough to earn the title New LSD as far as the general media tag goes.
Could it be a CT or SS? I dunno. I'd like to have the OP expand on their final line, "Or is this another case of law enforcement hiring and promoting only those who have no real life experience.". I think this is where the CT/SS lies.
Yes, I am a cynical and jaded jacknape. I try to see all three sides of the coin- do you?
