Stiff shit....

Who cares.

Didn't see that coming.

These people aren’t 5 yers old. Why the hell do they do this? Stupidity? FFS

More proof of Darwinism

Test the pills.

How many didn’t?

How boring is the entertainment at these festivals that the audience feels the need to inhale vast quantities of drugs just to get through it? You rarely hear of Overdoses at a Heavy Metal show. DownloadFestAU

Que the “it’s the governments fault for not introducing pill testing” idiots scorcherzz

Idiot!

Drugs you can’t OD on: mushrooms, lsd, weed. Good for a trip at a festival. Anything else is at your own risk

Just checking then, I’ve got a stash pills to sell, who do I take them to, to get checked before I cash in on my illegal drug trade. Will I get booked if they are OK to sell What a fucking joke......

Victoria's drug plague is getting out of control.......

Naturals selection at work

it is call being dumb

Why is this news? Took an illegal drug, now has to deal with the consequences..move on

And in other headlines you wont see.... 100s of people will be admitted to hospital for alcohol related overdoses/illnesses and accidents over the australia day weekend, including innocent civilians who will die at the hands of irresponsible drunks behind the wheel of a car

This is ridiculous, a truck hurt several pple and there was no hysteria.

We have to save these poor stupid fools, it's not their fault they take drugs, it's our fault for not pampering them when they were young, we've been too tough on them.

Why do people do this? Can’t they enjoy themselves without ingesting god-knows-what cooked up in some garage somewhere?

How did the dealer get into the festival? Will the police or event organisers be charged with a breach of duty of care? truth 😱

Police, medical personnel out in force for music festivals after drug deathsPolice have issued a blunt warning to people attending music festivals this long weekend, as the mother of a 34-year-old killed by a drug overdose calls for pill testing. Yeah, it sucks how drugs have become mainstream at music festivals. You can blame MOS magazine and The Face (discovered Kate Moss) magazine for that. While mixmag just focused on the music. Just like 1788 SBSVICELAND I wish I could care about drug deaths 🙄
