As medical marijuana is gaining momentum in a number of states, alternatives like K2 have been banned nationally. What do you say? Fair/unfair? Are they really a threat to public health?

DEA Bans 'Fake Pot' Products That Emulate Marijuana : The Two-Way : NPR
If the number of related poison control calls and ER visits really are as NPR reports, I'm inclined to agree with the ban, but I am curious why the DEA doesn't ban other equally harmful herbal "supplements.". Do they take a stand because of the number of incidents, or is it just because of its relation to a controlled substance.
