From my vantage point, E doesnt have a reputation for being a "hardcore" drug in America. Its perception is more "hardcore" than weed, but not to the level of coke or heroin.
Of course, in the US, the drugwar-machine's new favorite drug to hate is E. It often seems like we think its the ultimate in hard drugs, but its precisely because most dont think its that big a deal that the anti-drug propoganda targets E so much. This is a drug that is accepted by most middle and upper class youth in America. When police cheifs and mayors and senators started discovering THEIR kids were doing this drug, it became the holy mission to stamp it out. They dont need to care too much about heroine, crystal meth or pcp.. those are minority drugs... mainly used in the parts of town that they dont want to drive through.
