Party pills BANNED!

[phaedrus]

I vaguely remembered that they stopped using it as a drench for some reason. A quick google later and

"BZP was rejected as a cattle drench because it was considered too tough on the cattle"

do they not know, or simply not care?

[The Lone Rider]

Good riddance I say.

Now to fix the drinking culture in NZ. Asking a bit much I think.

[Crasherfromwayback]

I'd like to request a big ol' glass of "who gives a shit"?

No really... a big glass.

You should give a shit, because it's simply another 'choice' we have had taken away. I've never tried 'legal highs'.....and from what I've read, BZP is nasty. BUT......is alcohol next? Shit, I bet there are more people in A&E each weekend due to the effects of alcohol.....but no...it's got it's roots firmly planted, and is considered socially acceptable. It's the individuals right to choose what they do and take. At least it should be.

very wells said that man!!!


green stuff on its way to you! (bling that is)

Maybe I should take paying passengers for high speed rides around racetracks on my sidecar. That always gets my adrenaline pumping. Who needs friggin drugs then?? It would cost them less than drugs, and not cause any hangovers the following day!!
I guess all the limp wristed fags that need to take drugs for a high couldn't handle a 'high' from octane anyway!!

[Disco Dan]

No really... a big glass.

To swallow your party pills with?

Had them before.. great things - when you follow the directions on the pack. Which is why so many people get their stomachs pumped and spin out on them.... too thick and/or ignorant to read them. Eat enough sugar or red bull and you would spin out too.. i dont see the problem with them.

There will be more created to fill the market gap... not to mention the underground sales of them that will be of a lower quality and poor manufacturing.

Everything in moderation....

"Lower quality"? Mwahahahaha, ya need some quality of any sort to lower it.

That's laughable mate. Do you drink alcohol? If so....you're a fag.

[Disco Dan]

yeah instead of filling them out with pine tree sawdust, they will start using the mouldy stuff off the floors

[What?]

Nice of the government to hand the gangs another income stream...

Exactly. The first outlawing of drugs was in 1922(?) by the US Feral Gummint, when they decided that making cocaine illegal would stamp out its use.
It didn't take long for them to realise that a huge mistake had been made, but it was still too late - all sorts of drugs were being banned all over the world, and the underworld had discovered a form of income that was much more lucrative than extortion rackets. And cocaine usage in the US had soared...
Banning drugs has never been demonstrated to reduce their use. In fact, the incidence of alcoholism in the US was at its worst during the prohibition years.
Best to legalise all drugs, then deal with the real problems, rather than outlaw them and create a whole raft of much bigger problems.

[jonbuoy]

i have heard of these "party pills", but could someone please explain what they are/do please!


im not taking the piss here

Instead of drinking till 1am and waking up at 11am with a hangover you can now drink till 6am and wake up at 4.30pm with a hangover - whoopee more money pissed up against the wall.

Funny how Amsterdam has so few drug problems. Yeah sure all the wasters go there to experience the 'scene'...and make the place look messy. But the locals couldn't give a toss, and most of them are really not that into it.
Because the 'taboo' attraction ain't there....

And I take that on board. It may have something to do with the fact that you're a user of said drugs, that your friends happen to be users too.
And like I've said....all good, we should all have the right to choose. But the Dutch I know (and there's quite a few), don't use. But, unlike you, I've not spent time there, so you're better informed than I.

[canarlee]

mate, i only do mushrooms VERY occasionaly, its NOT a regular thing, party pills? never done them, not my thing. weed? yeah, but as many others here have said, far better for you than alchohol! but guess what? i drink more beer than i do the others so where does that leave me? lol
