Too many Ecstasy users have a lack of respect when it comes to the drug. If it was made legal, then the potential of these people abusing it even more would increase.
Maybe if the Government provided us with facts, instead of just scare tatics, there wouldn't be so many people out there, walking around with no fucking idea. Until those people are sorted, there'll be no chance of it ever being legalised.
I scanned both pages, but the first sentences in your post caught my eye and I have to totally agree with you there.
The problem with MDMA and other related compounds is that, if abused over a short-term (say a month), there are long-term consequences such as memory-loss, depression, HPPD, anxiety and so-forth.
Legalising it will most certainly make the Government and Health Departments liable for the increase in misuse of the drug and the widespread negative long-term side-effects.
I personally think that it should be quasi-legal. Maybe, a mandatory course on MDMA should have to be completed (for those who want to use it) and a license issued upon completion. This license could offer those who want to use MDMA access to the drug under stringent and monitored conditions.
Example: There are only so many MDMA pills that will be issued to the user per year. Let us just pretend, 2, 100milligram pills per person that must be consumed on the premises of the venue. 3-4 times a year maximum, or something.
They could have small booths (like the mini-pharmacies in S.E.A.) on the street near well-known social venues, etc...
Of course, none of this is really realistic and will probably never happen in my lifetime. But, you never know. Some day, maybe.
