    I've said it all before, but if drugs were legal and produced in quality controlled pharmaceutical labs, this kind of thing would happen far less than it currently seems to be happening.
    Bad pills today are the political equivalent of contaminated moonshine during alcohol prohibition.

    Think they're expensive now? See what happens if they're legalized.

    Blue Ghosts were the thing to avoid at Electric Picnic.


    Blue Ghosts? Well, it has an active ingredient which is a dangerous psychoactive compound known as dimesmeric andersonphosphate. It stimulates the part of the brain called Shatner's Bassoon. And that's the bit of the brain that deals with time perception. So, a second feels like a month. Well, it almost sounds like fun...unless you're the Prague schoolboy who walked out into the street straight in front of a tram. He thought he'd got a month to cross the street.

    I don't know about anyone else but I'd rather pay 5 times the price and have them of high quality and safe than the crap that gets pedalled out to people these days.

    True, but a lot of people would probably take the expense over the possibility of dying from a bad batch or getting stabbed by some gangland scumbag, no?

    Why not? It's my mind, it's nobody else's business if I want to alter it.

    The government has a duty to protect its citizens.
    Society wouldn't benefit from more drugs being available.

    From each other, not ourselves.

    Unless we're going to prosecute for failed suicide attempts, or accidentally drinking drain cleaner.

    It'd benefit from less crime.

    It won't stop the drug dealers though. They'll still keep producing the cheaper drugs. You'll just be making it easier for curious teens to try their first E and after they've paid €20 for it and liked it, they'll buy a €5 one the following weekend off a dealer.

    If everything was legal there'd be no crime.

    And then we get the cheap chinese knockoffs of the €10 licenced pills which are under a 10 year patent.

    Yes their would. Money is the motivation for crime.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,741 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Blue ghost are all the rage now. Dublin's flooded with them.

    And those new Hello Kittys and Androids.

    Yeah but if everything was legal then there couldn't be crime because....ehhh everything is legal?

    What do you think criminals will do?shrug their shoulders and say oh well.

    I have heard someone say this before and I cannot for the life of me see how that could ever happen, seen as if they are legalised and licenced it will remove costs associated with obtaining the tightly controlled precursors and and the costs of smuggling etc. And cannabis is cheaper in countries where it is legal so is alcohol. And if they were to increase the price of them dramatically it would be self defeating and create a black market the same as cigarettes

    they'd go back to racketeering,whoring,robbery etc just like they did in the states when they legalised booze again.

    Genuine Blue Ghosts have been around for 8 months or so and are spectacular. The ones at electric picnic where fakes, sold by sub-human scum looking to make a quick profit.

    There would be no patent. Cheap as chips routes to MDMA are common knowledge and could not now be patented. Any generic company worth its salt could be manufacturing high quality MDMA and making serious profit at less than a euro a pill. Although I suppose the tax/licensing costs imposed by government would probably boost the price a bit.
