"Ingesting the drug is simple. While it can be snorted, most people swallow it, and some wrap a concentrated amount in paper to speed up absorption, a method called parachuting. It is often mixed with caffeine, methamphetamine, and other substances. City health officials say that ecstasy overdoses are rare, accounting for less than 1 percent of the city’s cases. But the emergence of Molly, billed as a more potent form of ecstasy, raises new concerns."
And yet this state has its buns in in a bundle over medical marijuana! If it's synthetically made in a lab or distilled in a brewery and far more dangerous, ah -- until someone dies.
"House of Blues closed while police probe apparent overdoses" by Brian Ballou | Globe Staff, August 28, 2013
Pounding electro beats filled the cavernous House of Blues Tuesday night as a mostly college-age crowd danced elbow-to-elbow to tunes spun by popular young German disc jockey Zedd.
