Its simple. To who ever wrote this article consider this:
People will take drugs, illegal or not. No matter how bad the punishment they face, they will still do it.
Now we can either:
EDUCATE them about what they are taking, how to do it as 'safely' as possible and arm them with as much information
or
Tell them its bad, hide them from the world and they go out and get ruined by some dodgy drug dealer selling PMA.
We ALL know it's never 100% safe, but why not give everyone here as much info as possible. I cannot tell you the wealth of knowledge I have gained from these people. Things I thought were OK I now know are VERY un-safe. We may be internet buddies but a lot of us are friends and have built strong friendships through this medium. MOST of us here are concerned for the saftely and well being of others, even if we have never met them.
And remember this. We're not just little ravers popping pills here. We are all around. Your boss, Your work collegue, your sister, your brother, the garbage man... We are from all levels of society.
Why shut down something that helps others make an educated shot at doing it safe when doing something that brings them together?
Just remember this article you wrote when your kid takes drugs. Just remember that finding info on drugs is not dangerous. Lack of education is.
And Assuming we promote drug use?
Assumption is the mother of all fuckups.
