Don't know why but I've always been a little judgmental of the drug users in the dance music scene (Especially to the Molly and MDMA poppers) .
So far I should've been over it but can't help.
My belief, there is no need to use drugs to feel and understand this beautiful kind of music. Some times its social pressure sometimes its exhaustion and greed but no excuse for me, sorry not sorry.
We have to be careful as festival goers. You remember this viral video right ? It started to go around in all of our social feeds.
Anyway, let's go back to the title. Authorities in Sydney have issued a statement claiming they confiscated more that 3,500 MDMA capsules at the Midnight Mafia music festival this past weekend, stating this bust was "one of the largest we’ve seen".
According to The Music, 13 people were arrested for drug related offenses at the event which was held at Sydney Showground on Saturday. Among those charged include a 21-year-old woman who had nearly 1,600 MDMA caps, a 21-year-old woman with close to 550 pills and a 19-year-old woman who had about 200 MDMA caps.
Detective Chief Inspector Gus Viera spoke on the drug related busts that took place: "We saw more drugs seized today than recent events, one of the largest we’ve seen, which clearly shows our messaging is not getting through."
Reports coming out of the Midnight Mafia festival also reveal that 256 attendees sought medical treatment during the event. Three people were transported to the hospital to seek further treatment.
This news come just days after it was revealed that "deadly" substances were found by the landmark Australian pill testing operation. Read that report here
