On October 2nd of last year, Orphan Medical, Inc. submitted its New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA for “approval” of its Xyrem brand of GHB. Two weeks later, the FDA granted Orphan Medical’s NDA priority review status, which means that the FDA will decide on its approval within six months of its “acceptance.” On December 4th, the FDA accepted Orphan Medical’s NDA, which places a June 4th, 2001 deadline on GHB approval. According to Orphan Medical’s press release of December 4th, 2000 “the FDA has a goal of reviewing the NDA within a six-month time frame from the October 2, 2000 date of submission.” That means that the FDA could approve GHB by April 2nd of this year…
FUCK THE FDA. Mother fuckers. GHB is an amino acid. A nutrient not a drug. Do I need a prescription for GABA and Glutamine now. If you are stupid enough to get raped on GHB then the only tragedy is that you might be procreating. “But somebody slipped it in my drink…” That is becasue you are fucking stupid. Don’t ever put your drink down and keep it close to your body bitch. The rest of us that know how to use the stuff to enhance out lives are sick of being punished for all the stupid bitches out there… And you dudes out there that need GHB to get laid…I hope you get a STD and piss razors.
People who use GHB as a date rape drug should be hung. There are many of us out there who like using this drug for relaxation, deep sleep, etc. It is one of the best and safest drugs to use (if used properly).
People are dangerous, not the drugs. If it’s not G, they’ll use something else. People just need to be smarter and be more aware of their suroundings.
Man, I hope you never have a daughter, or sister that gets assaulted. It can happen to ANYONE. I’ve seen this firsthand, as I work with college students, and have taught street self defense classes to college women. Only a complete asshole blames the victim. I don’t get pissed about many things but this is one of them. You are flat out wrong, and I hope like hell you reconsider your beliefs on this issue before someone YOU care about goes through this particular living hell. And if they do, and you haven’t changed your mind, please do the woman a favor and stay the hell away from her until she works through her problems.
compromise verdict. who ever leaves their drink unattended does “fuck up big time” but hey accidents do happen. no should get raped from a small mistake like that. still, there are plenty of other things to slip in someones drink.
If you don’t look both ways before crossing the street you might get hit by a bus.
Com’ on Demo Dick…I don’t want to get into this with you. Rape is not something I would wish on anyone. However I subscribe mostly to a “THIN THE HERD” philosophy. In other words the injured animal gets eaten by the predator. Should the rest of the animals not graze simply because a few will die?
GHB is only one of many ways to make a person black out.
Also. Let us all remember this one thing…90% of the people who mix alcohol with GHB do so knowing the risks…SO…Who really cares if they die?
First of all, we’re not talking about people who willingly mix GHB with booze and then die. We’re talking about some pus nutted loser spiking a girls drink (in and of itself an assault) and raping her when she can’t defend herself. To say that we’re somehow “thinning the herd” by ignoring the problem is pretty silly. Consider yourself, for example. Do you have 20/20 vision? Do you have any allergies? How about diabetes, heart disease, cancer, etc? Even if you don’t, I’ll bet you know and care about someone who does (or someday will). Now, if we really wanted to “thin the herd”, why should we prescribe glasses and contact lenses, insulin therapy, chemo, etc.? Doing so allows sufferers to potentially pass along faulty genes to the next generation, making them weaker. THAT, my friend, is the law of the jungle. The weak and slow will die, while the genetically superior will live. That is what governs Darwinian evolution. Here’s the trick: Darwinian evolution no longer applies to humans because of the influence of culture. We wear glasses, take medications, and LIFT WEIGHTS to combat or change what our genes have determined will be our fate. I doubt you would agree that we should diregard the blind, physically disabled, or cancer patients so why would you honestly believe that we should turn a blind eye to a rape victim for doing something that was, shall we say, “less than smart”. Look, I agree that sometimes women do incredibly stupid fucking things, just like guys. And yes, going to a frat party, getting wasted with a bunch of strangers and dancing topless are pretty dumb things to do. But does the girl who does these things deserve to be raped? How about the girl who puts her beer down and looks away for a second? I’m pretty sure you’d agree that they don’t. Now, your analogy of walking in front of a bus doesn’t work either. If you’re comparing the bus to the assailant, you’re comparing an unthinking piece of machinery to a sentient, living being. It just doesn’t work. Trust me, if and when someone you love comes to you to tell you that they have been raped, regardless of the situation, you will feel different about the matter. I did.
if you believe in thinning the herd how are you still around? do you know anyone who was ever raped? why should anyone evr go to jail for any violent crime? their just thinning the herd.
Oh hell I didn’t mean to start the thread moving this direction
I meant the illustrate ye again the crass dishonesty of the FDA, as they claimed GHB had no known health benefits or medical uses to get it banned in the first place, ignoring everything they know and have been told, and blatantly lieng to congress to get it banned. Now coinidentaly it is being reissued as a prescription drug
I wonder what Congressinal District that pharm corp is in, I think you would find the king maggot congressman pedophile there.
About daterape: yea alcohol is #1, stupidity does play a big part, most (if not all) reported probelms have been with voluntary mixing with alcohol (darwin award winners) and lots of other things besides ghb could be and are and will continue to be used, however ghb is used sad but true.
It was proposed by some ghb expert that a embittering agent be added to the ghb by law, so that it is easly detectable in a drink, sort of like the gasoline smell they add to gasoline, or the burnt egg smell (mercaptains?) to propane etc.
so… FUCK THE FDA sick usless bastards, but yea… lets find a way to at least take reasonable measures to protect the innocent from the predators (up to a point).
