  • In an attempt to limit debate over a controversial methamphetamine bill, members of Congress have attached it to legislation renewing the USA-PATRIOT Act, which could pass Congress this weekend. The Drug Policy Alliance fought this bill, now known as the “Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act,” in several committees. Though the bill remains alive, groups working to oppose it have scored several major victories.

    Most importantly, the Drug Policy Alliance, Families Against Mandatory Minimums, the Interfaith Drug Policy Initiative and other groups waged a high-profile campaign to remove draconian mandatory minimums from the bill. The original bill would have enacted penalties for methamphetamine that were harsher than those enacted for crack cocaine in the 1980s. Those mandatory minimums were stripped out of the bill in committee. Thousands of Alliance supporters faxed Congress in opposition to the mandatory minimums.

    Additionally, a number of good provisions were added in committee. Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) added a section that creates a grant program to increase drug treatment for women with children. Congressman Bobby Scott (D-VA) added a section requesting a study on how to enact a treatment-instead-of-incarceration program for federal offenders with substance abuse problems. The Alliance has been working to accomplish both things all year.

    Two troubling provisions remain in the bill. One would enact a penalty of up to 20 years for selling or making methamphetamine in a home where a minor resides (even if the minor is not there at the time). This penalty would be on top of the penalties for the underlying offenses, which usually carry harsh mandatory minimums themselves. Though methamphetamine in the presence of children is a serious problem, this provision could devastate families by giving thousands of mothers long prison sentences when other options, such as treatment, are available. If the provision is enacted, many children would be put into foster care at taxpayer expense.

    The other troubling provision would require law-abiding Americans to show identification and sign a government log to buy cold medicine. While the Alliance supports many state and federal regulations designed to prevent people from using cold medicine to manufacture methamphetamine, there are concerns about the privacy implications of requiring people to show ID and give their names and addresses to buy Nyquil, Theraflu, Sudafed and dozens of other cold medicines.

    It is in the papers a lot recently and I was wondering if any readers could enlighten this uninitiated reader as to the nature of this particular beast. I have never taken it, I don’t think I will, but forewarned is forearmed etc etc. Cheers.

    They would be simlar both drugs being amphetamine, meth is much stronger. <---> lines like that will do you for hours.

    Warning to all drug users and abusers:

    Crystal Meth has hit England and is now easier to score than ever before.

    Found recently in the Thames Valley area regular users and abusers who freely get it.

    After seeing what this can do in other parts of the world I would urge those of you not to try this drug, purely for your own safety and state of mind.

    Always make an educated choice – know the difference when your buying crack and crystal meths. Also its possible for dealers to pass of crank as strong crack.

    Apologies for the scare mongering, however a good friend of mine has relapsed onto this shit and Ive never seen anyone go down so quick – pardon the pun.

    Read up on it guys n gals – know your stuff.

    nething considered more damaging than crack has gotta b given a wide birth! wudnt b happy if i started seein this crap ion a regular basis”!

    nasty stuff…. worse than speed or base (and even those substances must be treated with respect)

    it is definitely not a party drug – avoid it… pushes the body and mind beyond its limits

    when that hits the pinhead crew round Reading area its gonna be fucking carnage I reckon – glad I got out of the city

    another instance of prohibition leading to worse substances though IMO…

    Same as Miss bassets.

    Trouble is I think its starting to become popular. I’ve had a few e-mails offering the sale of how to manufacture this drug for $100 USD. With the riosk of blowing myself up by even trying I don’t like the idea of it at all.

    I’m surprised that oth9er cities havent started to show the rising use of this nasty drug.

    Any reports out there from people? Would be usefull.

    PLUR

    it cropped up on the Londonistan rave scene a few years ago; but most ravers I know are understandably and rightly scared of it and won’t touch it with a barge-pole, even the speed freaks!

    OTOH I doubt if its the same for the crackheads/thugs though…

    I had smoked some a few months ago – unusually strong and kept me awake for ages for only a “pipes” worth – the bloke selling it died from septacemia (Blood poisening) – mainly from doing speedballs – (Crack and smack)

    I havent looked in the drugs section for information on this drug..yet, but Im sure its already covered?

    Perhaps the american guys on here can assist us with information or even drug information to be used here such as signs of abuse, treatments etc.

    not specifically – here are some links though

    http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/meth/meth.shtml

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_meth

    i will go and find the rest of the info now

    Only just got into England… has it????

    Not just – the usuage is starting to spread to “middle england” – it was used by hardcore drug users, in the gay scene and occasionally spotted in the rave scene for a few years. Not many.

    My friend in Thailand is hooked on their yabba which is sold in tablet form, this was 5 or 6 years ago, so its use in the UK is very limited.

    PLUR

    My friend lies to me… she says she’s been taking crystal meth… what 2 years… she’s a size 12-14, looks healthy, not really fucked up…. still has a home and a job….

    mmmm?
