DRUG DEALERS NEEDED CASH `TO OPEN SCHOOL IN AFRICA`

(ANSA) - Bologna, May 22 - Police on Friday arrested 26
people and confiscated 250 litres of liquid ketamine after
busting a drugs racket allegedly run by two students who said
they planned to use the profits to open a school in Africa.
The 25-year-old female students, both first-time
offenders, told police they had turned to drugs trafficking
in order to raise the 30,000 euros needed for the school.
The two flatmates were surprised by police at their
apartment with 18 kilogrammes of material and shoes
impregnated with ketamine that they had imported from India
as well as a kilo of hashish hidden inside four ethnic masks.
The drugs would have been worth around 2.5 million euros
on the market.
In a bid to avoid suspicion, the women had packages sent
from Goa in India to a church youth centre allegedly run by
an accomplice, who was among those arrested Friday.
Another Italian accomplice packaged up the drugs in Goa,
India to send to Italy, police said.
A potent anaesthetic used by vets for animals, ketamine
is gaining increasing popularity in Italy according to
Bologna police chief Fabio Bernardi, who said a dose sells
for around 20 euros.
The undersecretary repsonsible for drugs, Carlo
Giovanardi, warned of the dangers of ketamine, which as a
tasteless, odourless substance is sometimes used to spike the
drinks of unsuspecting victims as a rape drug.

I don't have much experience with ketamine, but tasteless isn't how I remember it.

Potent is another way I would definitely not describe ketamine.

I had a water bottle full of K while I was waiting in line to get back into the US at Juarez. I tried to take a drink from it to look extra 'normal'. I gagged and spit it on the ground... They ended up letting me through though. And yea, it's not 'tasteless' by any stretch of the imagination.

Yea that trick paid for my college recreation (never tried to take a swig or anything though). Loved the good old days in TJ.

no.. unfortunatly both GHB AND Ket are consistantly misrepresentated as 'tasteless' to perpetuate the date rate myth...sigh... much better to scare the shit out of people and make them think they are powerless to defend themselves against the 'magic invisible drugs', than actually inform them of such details as 'GHB IS AS SALTY AS DISTILLED WHALE EJACULATE', and give them a little heads up which could help them stay safe..

I love reading lies everyday I wake up =0

Ketamine is certainly not a date rape drug. WTF is up with it constantly being misrepresented as one?

The bologna police department said this.... ironic to me.

^^ ketamine tastes flat out foul, the only word i can use to describe the taste of ketamine is "chemical"

 

[FrostyMcFailure]

^ really fucking bitter

 

[robatussin]

yeah gotta chime in on the not being tasteless thing. Alcohol is the date rape drug we all know that. "let me buy you a drink..."

Are we all too high to be writing or e-mailing editorials to these news stories? A company sees your complaint as representing a percentage of the populaion and a few of us can scare the dying newspaper industry (or any other news corperation) with facts, knowledge, and references to the truth. News is the product they are selling, it is our choice to buy it or spit it back at them and make them think twice before misinforming the public. We need to take the next outrageous story and flood the company with mail promising to boycott any of their products, sponsors, and affiliates. Someone send these guys a sample of ketamine to taste and do a follow up report on.

^^^ Good luck on that, I wrote a damn fine letter to the dumb fucks at my school paper after they tried to tell all the girls at school that they are helpless to the magical rape drug GHB because it was tasteless and they would never be able to tell if someone put it in their drink... irresponibal assfucks never even replied. Better to scare people into reading your shitty paper with bullshit than to protect them with real information.
