K2 is a synthetic form of marijuana. Some people compare the effects of K2 to marijuana. Right now the drug is legal in the United States, but some states are trying to pass bills to ban the drug. It is sold in head shops as incense although people do, more often than not, smoke it. It is not detectable on drug tests. Recent articles have been cropping up as legislatures try to ban the chemicals in K2.
I found this googling K2 as a drug.
The whole concept, to me, is drug culture, whether it is legal or not and not a healthy way to live.
The way I see it is that a person is either into the drug culture or not, there isn't much "in between" and that the practice of smoking this stuff is dangerous.
Hope this helps. It's not for me.
