Yet another reason why many soft drugs should be legalized. If these drugs were distributed with government regulations users would not have to worry about the quality of their product and we would not have to worry about friends and children dying for even just making a single experimental use. Legalize it, regulate it for quality and distribution and tax the crap out of it.

I don't think I'd want ecstasy legalized. It's got some pretty dangerous risks. Particularly when combined with sex it can screw up the way your brain processes touch.

And considering it CAN KILL YOU!

You need to constantly like, drink water, or else you will get too dehydrated.

I remember after one of my friends did it, he had no nails left on his thumb and pointer finger, because you do things without realising it. You need something to keep yourself occupied, or else you end up like, accidentally digging a hole through your skin.

Guys, keep in mind that most of the ecstacy out there is has been cut and reformulated for maximum profit potential with little to no care for the consequences to the user. Little of what is called "ecstacy" is really pure ecstacy. There is a reason why there a kits sold to the public to test ecstacy for purity. Ecstacy, much like acid, is a drug that does have risk, but when tested for purity and safety does not hold that much more risk than alcohol. This is why regulation is so important.

Afterall, alcohol can be quite deadly also and cause blindness if made without standads. Quality of product can mean everything.

And for record, I have never done ecstasy.

I'm totally fine with legalizing marijuana, but legalizing ecstacy would be much too hard to regulate. I've heard of people using bleach in ecstacy, yeesh. Marijuana is different.. right? You just grow it. I don't see someone getting dangerous needs to go hug trees naked because the grower used Miracle Grow.

One time, a kid at school tried to spray his inhaler in my eyes.

If Ecstasy is ever legalized... I would have to go on some kind of murderous rampage. It shouldn't even be a consideration.

Oh, well. They got what they deserved and hopefully learned the proper lessons.

It's kinda sad that this has to come from the Dutch Guy, but:

Don't. Do. DRUGS!!!

Trust me. You just don't grow marijuana now a days. Marijuana is commonly weighed down with products such as windex and stuff like that. In Toronto a couple years back, there was a couple of months that weed was messing up people big time. Luckily, that is when I got off of it, because a couple of people in my area that went to my school had to go to the hospital because of messed up weed.

And also with marijuana, most of it is usually dipped in cocaine to add to the high. I don't think I have ever smoked pure weed before.
