Legalising and restricting through pharmacies probably could’ve saved her too, but nobody is thinking that far out of the box
“Being responsible and not overdosing could have saved Georgia”
Why is it always someone else’s fault or responsibility and never if the “victim”!
The past 20 years or so no one takes or accepts responsibility whatsoever.
If drugs are checked and confirmed to be OK then that person dies as here, what is the legal position re liability.?
Wow the law and the criminals are really protecting people. Let’s just keep going with that attitude from the 30s
Alcohol is way more dangerous than MDMA. I used to do MD when I was young and all it ever did was make everyone your best friend. People are going to do it, it is better it is regulated.
Alcohol on the other hand is a horrible, destructive, but socially acceptable, and taxable drug.
So many turds on this thread.
MDMA is a remarkably safe drug.
A good night out shouldn’t kill you.
Legalise.
We need legalisation. People always have, and will always continue to use drugs. Substances like MDMA, psychedelic mushrooms and LSD all have a profoundly positive impact on one’s life when used in the correct manner, which needless to say is a lot more difficult when those drugs are illegal, inconsistent and potentially adulterated.
Or not celebrating party drug culture as a nation works too

UK music festivals: “Not doing drugs would have saved Georgia”
🤷♂️
Ban alcohol too then, seeing as you that’s just as bad, mainly because people don’t know when to stop.
These comment threads proving without a doubt that some people are irrational beyond redemption.
You can’t expect other people to always be there to bail you out of your bad decisions
The people will be up in arms and riot if you do drug checking, you can’t win
I pity the people who have never tried a safe dose of mdma because of the government making it difficult to get knowledge / accurate drugs.
How did she think that would help? They don’t tell you the strength, just what’s in the pill and she already said it was big strength mdma, so it would have shown her it was mdma
Not taking drugs would have saved her, legalising drugs would have saved her, drug checking would not have saved her
Why do they always push the blame onto someone else? Is no one accountable for their own actions anymore?
Always only take half of any pill. You can always take the other half when you start to peak or come down.
PSA you can buy mdma testing kits for cheap on Amazon, we brought one to Creamfields and tested it on a sanitised hand mirror. It’s your own responsibility to test your stuff, take half and wait the appropriate time before taking anymore. Obviously, we need better harm-reduction education to avoid these kinds of tragedies, but I think this is partly on parents to make sure their child knows the risks before going to festivals or on heavy nights out.
Not doing them in the first place would’ve saved her.
Not taking street drugs could have also saved Georgia 🤷♀️
Drugs are proven to be dangerous and cause death, mental illnesses and all that shit, if they are banned they are banned, don’t buy drugs off a stranger, I learned my lesson when I nearly felt like died on mdma , I right now can have just as much fun with alcohol just a little bit , for me it s shocking how many druggies defend drugs because they are so addicted and they lied to themselves that it’s government fault. You don’t need those drugs lmao, it’s your responsibility. Low life druggie always blame the industry. The fault is on you.
She could’ve been saved if her mum checked her for drugs too.
How far do we push accountability?
fake death to increase surveillance/ control in festivals
The government should be held accountable for this girls (and every other)death.
They have the power to change things for the better yet they just speak the population as if we’re 6 years old.
Big pharma must be paying them real good!! Cunts.
Awful lot of absolute sociopaths in the comments here happily condemning a dead girl for taking a pill.
Legalise and regulate. Problem solved and tons of money made. It’s a no brainer!
Utterly awful and pointless that a life is lost.
Governments know that hard and/or recreational drugs are not going away, but still push to punish and stigmatise.
Safe checks on what you buy are easily available and affordable and should be given out freely from pharmacies in the UK.
We should remember that we are all different though, someone who can throw four good pills down their neck on a Saturday night and have great time may react different to a Peanut.
Be safe all of you, and enjoy your life.
Horribly ironic how the person who organised this was called Betts.. the same name of the first girl than died from ecstasy a long time ago now.. Leah Betts x
Wrong! Legalising could’ve “saved Georgia”. But that is literally inconceivable, apparently.
Georgia could of saved Georgia.
When did personal responsibility go out of style?
