Blame everyone else it seems. We really need to have the conversation of how to regulate these drugs. We can't even get pill testing standard at festivals today. It shouldn't be a crime, it is a health issue. Pills are pretty standard for a lot of young people for the last 20 years. Good parents etc. Had a good time and worked and studied hard. I know many that are doctors, teachers, lawyers, tradies. Never had an issue unless they got caught and their record affected their employment. Pretty much all of them have gone on to family mortgage etc. like everyone else. I've seen alcohol do a lot worse. Nobody seems to have a problem with that still.

seriously this is no big deal, it is obvious that he is a good guy. This is all about the stigma around ecstasy and that it is illegal.

No. As far as I'm concerned this is no different to drinking alcohol.

Drug cheat? Recreational drugs are not the same as performance enhancing drugs - least of all ecstasy. You wouldn’t have to search very hard to find studies that conclude alcohol is far more destructive than MDMA.
