Keep kratom legal
 

This is getting crazy. Dont fear what you don't understand. Kratom does not make you high. It works like a mild pain reliever. I have suffered from Fibromyalgia for years. Nothing had really helped.  The type of pharmaceuticals available for the treatment of fibromyalgia has lots of side affects. I looked for years for something I could take more natural that could help me battle my pain. This has been a blessing. I feel like I have a portion of my life back- it got me off the couch and out of bed because I could move around with less pain. Atleast manageable pain.  I dont like anything that makes me feel “off” or “woozy” and I certainly dont like anything habit forming. I have taken Kratom off and on since 2018. As long as you take it correctly there are zero issues. Any problems people may have is mixing with illegal drugs. Of course you can have adverse reactions mixing any drug. Dont hurt the ones taking it correctly over a few dumbheads. Heck if they are gonna be that stupid I consider that cleaning up the gene pool. They would have done it sooner or later, one way or another. I am so sick of the attempted power grabs and dictatorships happening across the US. What happened to my body, my choice? Its that only for the Liberals killing babies???!!
