i'm also starting to think that this huge press coverage is a good thing for g, as maybe it will drive the drug into the ground, making it held as a "scary" thing not to be tried.....then so many fucking idiots wouldnt take the "more is better attitude".
i have read so many things over the past week about g, so much bullshit that it is "new" and that this is the first instance of it. what a crock of shit. true, that 3 years ago g was around, but not many people were doing it at commercial events, certainly not as commonly as people are today. i know people that think g-ing out is cool, that being taken "almost into a coma, is a different better kind of high" ?!!! someone *an unreliable source however* told me that 3 people every week get taken to hospital ....how can people be so fucking irresponsible?(this is someone however that is proud of doing 50ml of concentrate in 2 days) its the people that have no fucking idea what they are taking, the people that go overboard with everything and take 10 pills a night instead of two....its sad that people that are careful, that take the embarassment of going to buy a syringe from the chemist to measure their g, that write "ghb" on their hands just in case, will never ever be recognised for being responsible, and trying to make others do the same.....
i am glad that someone *stynes* that has some media presence has written something that is somewhat true to the scene and knows exactly what is going on in this 'world'. this isnt a new problem, i saw three people within a space of an hour taken to medical from g related od's at a similar event at rod laver late last year.....
yes g is a very big problem and it will continue to be whether events at melbourne park are banned or not. but like someone else said in this thread, get 20,000 people into an event with vodka shots for $3 a pop and lets see how many alcohol poisioning and other alcohol related hospitalisations there are......i'm actually surprised that only 10 out of 20,000 people od'ed...... i wonder how many other idiots g-ed out but didnt bother to go to medical? oh well like the "ice pipes" and other drug incidents this will all blow over never to be heard again until the next big event....i'm just glad that dickhead muzza's like their coke way to much to bother with a cheap drug like g, otherwise we would have fucking 5,000+ od's to deal with 8(
