USA Big Boys Ban Prohormones Again: Anabolic Steroid Control Act (2014)

"The legislation, similar to a bill introduced in 2012, was praised by officials in the dietary supplement industry and at organizations that enforce rules against performance-enhancing substances in sports."

If enacted, the bill would add 27 known anabolic steroids to the DEA's list of controlled substances — helping to bring it up-to-date. It would also give the DEA the authority, as it identifies new designer steroids similar to those already on its list, to quickly add them temporarily, allowing action until the compound is permanently added to the list.

"This goes directly toward stopping the manufacturing of these products," said Travis Tygart, CEO of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which oversees testing of Olympians and other athletes. "We think it is the best solution that we've been able to come up with to stop the ease by which designer anabolic steroids are coming to market."

Graeme, I wish you'd think of the children. These athletes are ruining the national passtime and it's clear we should make them illegal for everyone

Guns don't kill people just like steroids don't make you go around punching people. Banning something doesn't stop the wrong people getting it, it just puts the price up a bit.

Pray tell; what gun policies have been enacted lately in the USA that cause "mass murder?"

The vast majority of Americans support the second amendment, it is law and they will keep their guns. The alternative is to impose a despotic regime (good luck in the USA) disarm the citizens so only crims and Stasi have guns.

By contrast, most decent citizens are against drugs.

Have a look at the Australian context. Most crimes involving firearms in Oz are with illegal firearms that no amount of legislation will prevent. Bullshit about them being sourced from legal gun owners by the way. I handed in a number of fine firearms when our freedoms were violated, but that didn't stop the crims in Sydney getting their hands on illegal guns and committing crime.

The British context which is also oppressive to law abiding people is another example of failure. Great Britain has higher violent crime rate than most of the EU. Disarming law abiding citizens did not have any effect on violent crime.

Is admin now a mouthpiece for the crackpot anti-gun lobby in Australia whose lentil-eating membership could probably be counted on one hand?
