MDMA when pure is actually one of the safer drugs you can take. It is when it is cut with crap from the black market that it becomes dangerous. Another symptom of our drug war, drugs that are safe become dangerous because the demand is only supplied by criminals who don't care. Remember how their used to be alcohol that would make you go blind during prohibition, because it was being made by criminals who did all kinds of shady junk to it?

We never learn.
