Death comes to us all. It is not a reason for banning anything so benign as ecstasy - though I agree with the guy who said ecstasy is usually used by wankers.

Around 10-12 people per day are killed on the roads in the UK, which has the lowest rates of road traffic accidents in Europe. That's not seen as a reason to ban cars... we allow their use and demand that strict rules are applied to that use.

Illegal = abdication of responsibility by society
Legal = potentially regulated use and harm reduction

The hysteria surrounding any substance which alters consciousness and not encouraged or tolerated by those who consider themselves the moral elites, is entirely caused by the skewed information which is pushed onto the rest of society.

ECSTASY IS A KILLER!

well yes, but so is.... yadda yadda yadda... you know the argument.

Also: In the regulations surrounding prostitution, I say they must all be hot and I get to be the judge of this.

Viva la prostitucion!

(i've ne'er used such a service through an honest transaction; only through the purchasing of presents and dinner.)
