A new entry has been added to File Archive

Description:
Some clips about why people use MDMA from Peter Jennings documentary 'Ecstasy Rising'. Shows what positive psychological effects it can have on peoples life, and includes commentary by Mark Kleiman, Dr. Rick Doblin and Shulgin.

End Quote from Mark Kleiman, PhD, Drug Policay Analyst, UCLA.

"I've never heard anybody say to me 'Meth-amphetamine improved my life, I'm a better person for having used Meth-amphetamine', same with cocaine, I know lots of people that like to use cocaine, but I've never heard anyone try to claim that cocaine is good for you. With MDMA, lots of people think that the drug improved their life, and continue to think that after they've stopped using it. Thats whats astonishing."

Yes. I knew it. Great.
I have never seen a well known journalist of one of a big TV investigating being so open minded.
Pete Jennings, you won't find such a journalist on a major TV anymore. Sad.

The video is only a clip from an hour long news story. You should check out the video in its entirety. It can be found on youtube but it is in at least five parts. Swim found it very informing as it gave unbiased information.

Yeah i can definately reccomend wayching the whole thing. They also show how the govenment scientist who claimed it was highly neurotoxic had to retract his studies due to major "mistakes"... and other interesting stuff. But there is of course still the odd bit of propeganda in there, but as a whole the odcumentary is fairly impartial.
