Sad. RIP. Leave the drugs alone if you can't do them in moderation.

They made a mistake, doesn't mean they don't deserve sympathy. They didn't deserve to die.

This was 5 minutes from my house, my sister and her boyfriend were there and they said it was a mess with people puking/passed out everywhere. Her boyfriend even got his fake ID taken from him and he has a court date

It's really sad to hear about though. Most people at the festivals there are on molly and drink excessively (mainly high schoolers who don't know how to control their liquor) and they get violently sick and as a result end up in the hospital.

It's gonna come to the point you're gonna need to take breathalyzer/drug tests before entering and be searched excessively.

Why do these idiots think it's okay to do these drugs? I can't seek sympathy for people who know the consequences of doing drugs like this and still act like dumb asses and take them.

Honestly I really don't get how dumb they'd have to be to OD on these drugs. It's really sad but is it really necessary to go that hard?

These rave events are becoming more popular every year and it brings large crowds of people who have never done E so when they try it for the first time they get too excited with all that's being passed around and don't know how to handle it.

Thing is people shouldn't be doing ecstasy in the first place.

The 17 year old from Woodbridge literally lived in the same county as me.

A rave sounds fun enough, why do you need to take drugs? Just enjoy the music and dancing.
