Middle school youths overdose on 'ecstasy'
FROM EXAMINER STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAN JOSE — Eight San Jose middle school students who apparently overdosed on the drug ecstasy have been discharged from the hospital.
The students, all between the ages of 12 and 14 and enrolled at Chaboya School in the Evergreen neighborhood of San Jose, bought the drug from a fellow student, authorities said.
The designer drug known as "liquid ecstasy" has resulted in at least a dozen deaths nationally since 1993.
Three students were taken to San Jose Medical Center at about 1:30 p.m. Monday, where they were examined and discharged, said hospital spokeswoman Leslie Kelsay.
She said the other five students had been taken to Regional Medical Center of San Jose. All five also were examined and released.
San Jose police spokesman Rubens Dalaison said two students would most likely be arrested and that six would be cited and turned over to their parents.
Police were continuing to investigate the case, he said.

whats up eezy,
I too saw that, and although i dont know who the hell thought it might be cool to give them some e, but maybe they got it from their older sibling's stash after hearing him/her rant and rave about how great it is..we all need to be more careful.
What's fucked up though is i heard on the news nothing about od'in. I think it was just played up by the news. Most were discharged last night, which we know is not the case if you were od'in. They didnt say anything about od'in on the news..just that kids took x and that they were brought to the hospital. Afterall, what else could the school do to release liability if something did happen? They already took the x, and i am sure they were probably just peaking after lunch which is supposedly when they took it. Who knows though..im just glad they are alright..i am glad that the news brought up the issue of young kids doing drugs, but fuck them for misleading the public into the overdosing.....what else can you do to scare the younger kids though?
PLUR and safety

"Liquid Ecstasy"? Those kids were all G'ed out! I hate it when morons manage to confuse people (in a country where nobody knows shit about drugs because the government is too stupid to educate peeps) by giving two VERY different drugs similar names. SHeeesh.

Yes, when can we have some sort of public education where we can inform the public with accurate information on drugs that are prevalent?
Liquid ecstacy, ecstacy, designer drug, overdose, narcotics, bah! They use these words without consequence. I've only heard worse descriptions from reporters describing surfing contests!
We use terms like "threshold dose" "contraindications" "baseline" in our normal vocabulary, this stuff is possible to be educated and responsible with. But if we keep the public uneducated and in the dark, we're basically giving them a license to shoot themselves.
I was thinking about making a small guerilla pet project of making informational flyers about recreational drugs and putting them alongside other flyers in clubs and bars, particularly ghb and e, two of the most misrepresented drugs in history. Describe the benefits and describe the dangers. It's our scene.
As for kids taking drugs, jeez, would somebody explain to these kids this: As we tell them not to fuck up or else they'll have a pitiful future flipping burgers at best, so will they be prone to addiction if they do drugs at an early age. Myself as well as other moderate users have never had a serious problem with addiction (thank god) most likely due to waiting til our 20's to do some serious experimentation. We could engender that sort of attitude in kids. "Wait until you get out of high school to do drugs, they'll be much more fun and user friendly, plus they may even invent some new ones by the time you get out"

Or tell them that they'll inhibit penis growth and make them have acne until their 30's. Don't tell kids about death. Death is as far away from a kid's mind as the edge of the expanding universe is from my hand!
