Hey man put me on the pay roll and I bet I'd do an awesome job of going to the raves and reporting back about "the party drug scene, the ecstacy involved and the people who use the drugs"! Damn might even be able to throw in a few pointers about which are the good pingas going around at the moment too ;)

| as my buddy who is a political science major and TA in Poli Sci at UVIC puts it, "We live in a police state!" Citizens of British Columbia deserve better especially young citizens who can't go anywhere without being labelled ignorant or uneducated when it comes to drug substances. |

| Yeah it's ironic that the political media and law enforcement paint the users in the the drug community as bad people saying they are "risk taking" and also saying they are not educated on harms and dangers of these substances. It's ironic becuase the government so eaily shirks it's responsibility of providing accurate/reliable/scientic based evidence and education for the whole community. It's also a little disturbing that they could employ harm reduction statagies that could reduce that "risk taking" significantly. It's also quite possible it could prevent more deaths like ones that have already happened in North America from adulterated pills. Instead the job is left to volunteer, privately funded agencies like Enlighten Harm Reduction, RaveSafe, CodeBlue (and I imagane DanceSafe would be very similar here in North America). |
