I do not support the ban of kratom. I do not support this petition.
 

I do not support the ban of kratom and its alkaloids. Kratom has saved my life from chronic back pain and it literally causes zero mental obsession aka phenomenon of craving like most substances do. I have zero side effects from taking it and live a happy life. I can’t say the same thing about the medicines my pain doctor tried to prescribe. I do not support this petition. Keep kratom legal;  It’s the final standing pillar of harm reduction for both addiction and chronic pain.
