No... it is not illegal

Absinthe was never illegal in the US as some people like to think. What was outlawed is the wormwood found in the true Absinthes.

It has never been illegal outside the US, and more than a fair handful of non-US residents frequent Fanpop.

Just so ya know before you start a campaign against this spot ;)
