strangely enough, i blame a lack of recreational drug use.
if there was more recreational drug use people wouldn't care about social pressures, financial problems, unemployment or crime, they'ld realise that nobody owns anything and that we are all united in an interconnected divine consciousness of one.
okay, perhaps not, my point is people blame drugs for everything, it's not drugs, it's society that's broken, drug abuse is just a symptom, like a breakdown in mental health.

Not being a druggie, I am not sure what 'P' is - that is how it is referred to here in NZ.
But it has sent certain people totally mental and then they committed torture and murder.
I think it is some kind of amphetamine.
Please, someone, explain what P is?

"P" is Methamphetamine link
it's nasty stuff but really easy to produce by home chemists, one of those drugs that would only ever be used in a country where the safer stuff is unavailable due to criminalisation.

By the way, I am so sorry for your loss, and my sentiments are yours exactly.
If you are telling the truth - it is so difficult to tell these days.
My assailant was Japanese, and had arrived from Japan just before the conference began. He spoke to me the day before my lecture, telling me he was hearing voices. I later learned that he had told several other people about the voices, and some had tried to help him.

To those people who dismiss all reports of hearing voices as an excuse: please educate yourselves you ignorant smug idiots.
I'm sorry to be so testy, but the sister of an ex of mine was a brilliant scholar who started hearing voices and eventually became full-blown schizophrenic (whatever that supposedly informative word is supposed to mean) and in the end committed suicide.
She had all sorts of auditory hallucinations and also suffered from delusions of grandeur, in the sense that if she heard a news report about some disaster, she'd find a way to make it all her fault.
Perhaps the worst thing about it was that she was incredibly bright and articulate and knew full well that she was losing her mind. It must have been absolutely terrifying.
Another appalling aspect of this tragedy is that quite a lot of the time she could hold it together and be, apparently, quite compos mentis. Her GP thought she was being alarmist and his negligence contributed directly to her demise.
She hanged herself in a toilet of a hospital to which she'd been admitted following a suicide attempt.
Now, as to the possibility of mind control, it is very real. Why else would the EU ban mind control technology?
Quite a good introduction to the subject
I found it rather interesting that noted scientist Rupert Sheldrake was stabbed by a Japanese man who'd been hearing voices which he blamed on Sheldrake.
Sheldrake's report of the incident
My assailant was Japanese, and had arrived from Japan just before the conference began. He spoke to me the day before my lecture, telling me he was hearing voices. I later learned that he had told several other people about the voices, and some had tried to help him.
I could have sworn I posted this on another thread but I've done a search and couldn't find it. At any rate, the technology exists to make people think they're hearing voices. If someone wanted to create a "problem" that needed "reaction" and a "solution", then harassing people (who might be already marked out as being potentially violent) with that kind of technology would produce the desired fear in the populace.
I used to be pretty skeptical about mind control, but Delgado's research is decades old. I don't for one moment think things have stood still in that field of research.

Yes, marijuana is a great drug and has been blamed for a lot.
For one thing, it eases people's physical pain.
And for another thing, it eases people's mental pain.
I am strictly into tobacco, which is a killer, but so is life.
The technology works by beaming waves of hypersonic sound at a pitch that is undetectable by the human ear. The waves continue until they smash into an object such as a person's body. The waves then slow, mix and re-create the original audio broadcast. If the person steps out of the waves, the waves are no longer obstructed and they are rendered inaudible.
