In Regards To Kratom Ban:
 

I do not live in Virginia, however banning Kratom won't be an ideal & safe choice. From personal experience & from a state that provides KCPA, Kratom has been efficient for me work-wise & is a safer alternative to other opiates. It has helped keep me active with superb pain management, as well as helped me wind down. It's very easy to take a break from (depending on the individual) and banning it will only lead to negative consequences. 

 

Prohibition has never worked. All it does is prevents people from seeking efficient medicines, & throws non-violent people in cages. Ruining the lives of individuals who partake in substance use. 

 

Kind regards.
