2C-E Death in Minneapolis

[swilow]

It was a good post, but comparing 2C-E to drinking water doesn't mean a whole heap. Everyone in the world drinks water, a fraction of a percent of people take 2C-E a year.

2c-e is up to a whopping total of 2 fatalities this year.

I thought that out of the three, two were found to be Bromo-Dragonfly? Or is there still some other incident?

And I'm still looking for a source to confirm that it still was 2C-E?

i thought it was a labeling error from the defunct vendor chemicology who mislabled the bromo-dragon-fly as 2c-e and when the kids dosed it was lethal without them knowing it?

A few isolated incidents with a death or so out of a few million users.... If you get a half million people together in a space for the length of a 2c-e trip. There would probably be a death or serious hospital incident happen to someone. We are good at adaptation but in the end we all have an end.

I just think the world has more rational problems...

That Br-drfly was the Oklahoma incident! The one in Minneapolis was according to news reports confirmed to be 2C-E. Sorry I don't have time to dig through the various threads looking for news article links, but I'm pretty sure its in BL somewhere. Or google "minneapolis 2c-e death" and start digging... keeping in mind to filter out reports that are really about the OK incident (which accounted for I believe a total of 3 deaths on its own from Br-drfly). I don't think the authorities (in MN) bothered to post scans of the documents from the lab doing the analysis, I doubt you will find that level of corroboration if thats what you are seeking. But there were I thought some announcements where the cops/courts reported to the media that the tests did came back 2C-E.

Like, OK, here you go... this is the SECOND hit on the results page if you google what is in quotes above. Pretty easy, eh?

Rumors are swirling within the group of friends that the drug was mixed with some other chemical or cleaner. But Fenner says the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, which analyzed the substance, confirmed that it is 2C-E and to his knowledge did not discover any other harmful substances in it.​

if that 3.5 million people figure is accurate then 0.05% of the human race dies each year from bad drinking water. that is 1 in 2000 people.

idk how many people take 2C-E each year, but if more than 4000 people take 2C-E this year it's mortality rate will be lower than 0.05%.

that is assuming, of course, that no one else dies from 2C-E this year.

Thanks DwayneHoover. I did do some digging around before asking, but just didn't have to patience to search through many news articles, since I thought that probably someone here knows.

However:

Ten people, between the ages of 16 and 21, were hospitalized and two were in critical condition. Doctors were not able to resuscitate Robinson and he was taken off of life support yesterday. As of this afternoon, at least nine of the other victims have been released.

Either the dosages were way, way, way off, or it wasn't 2C-E, despite the claims. How, otherwise, would one explain this?

 

[pharmakos]

as far as i can see its either one of those two possibilities, or they got real 2C-E that had a toxic impurity in it.

Honestly... without meaning to demean anyones loss or suffering, there really are far, FAR bigger fish to fry on this planet than a few "recreational accidents". Makes you wonder if the powers that be are keeping us conveniently disracted so we don't work just how big our problems really are...

If you look up the guy's name or dig thru more pages found by the search expression I give above, there are multiple accounts that piles of 2C-E were laid out on a table as if it were cocaine, and that this guy was one to frequently prove his machismo by demonstrating that he could do MORE of whatever drug was under consideration than anyone else around. Put all those together and I think it clearly points to totally stupid DickSizing massive over-dosages without ANY form of measurement. Very sad but this is what can continue to be expected so long as our culture fails to take into account that we have a natural draw towards drug induced consciousness alteration and providing REGULATED & MEASURED means of doing so. So long as we remain in denial, there will ALWAYS be deaths due to ignorance and going overboard, unfortunately.
