This is just an excuse, obviously. Society doesnt like this whole "legal high" thing and doesnt know what to do about it. So, when someone dies, they take the initiative and try to use it as a front to ban the substance completely. Its not like they care about the "the children", like you so often hear.
For the record, I dont care about MXE in particular all that much, but I think prohibition is a dead matter that oh-so-clearly doesnt work (how many times must that be said or proven through life experience?). So. GIVE UP!
Next year people will be railing some fucked up neurotoxic pcp analog, with no knowledge of its neurotoxicity. This is because your politicians care about you so much.
UPDATE: and yes, mostly you UK vendors, stop selling things as recreational! YOU are who fucks it up. along with anyone who says "I HEART ROFLCOPTR" and talk about how better mxe is than ketamine on public forums. Which btw... thats from Total Annihilation like 15 years ago. But thats neither here nor there.
Honestly, these drug discussions should be moved to TOR. Links and sources included. And that way we wont have to worry about some mod saying "no identification!" when all you want is some advice (which bluelight used to happily provide, its against the rules now)
