Sweet, sweet ecstacy
This is an interesting concept, isn’t it. A young couple leave some pills just lying around, their daughter nyoinks them and takes them to school, thinking they are lollies. She waits until lunchtime, before sharing the three lollies with two younger boys.
Now, kids are pretty fickle. They don’t like vegies, they don’t like fruit, and they don’t like taking strange medicine that tastes funny. 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine does not taste like a lolly of any description. Amphetamines have a harsh alkaline flavour. If an average kid took a tab of ecstacy, thinking it was a lolly, I would wager they’d spit it back out pretty quickly.
Point 2: if I stole three lollies from home, I sure as hell wouldn’t be waiting until lunch time to eat them. And I wouldn’t be splitting my find three ways with the other kids. I’d be chowing down as soon as I walked into the school grounds.
I smell a rat.

Must be watching too much AFL & Rugby League.
