William Burroughs wrote some really interesting articles about "junkies" and how they became demonised in the popular press during the 1940's. From patient to criminal in less than a generation.
People deserve our love not condemnation.

How about gathering nothing and releasing everything for some real freedom.

Im ok with most drugs... but one thing i specially dislike here in MX is the use of glue or solvents, specially among very young kids. It seems totally wrong, destructive and not psychedelic at all.
Pretty common nowadays... wasted kids that smell like thinner and stare at you with sinister look, i find it sad and annoying. |

Yes. Most big psy parties include 'tonchos' / 'chemos' as we call them.
Crack is a terrible drug too, although i know John Doe® is trolling i don't think crack is as nasty as solvents... i find myself much more often dancing between people using inhalants than crackpipes...
Smell is disgusting, specially if one is tripping on something psychedelic, trying to enjoy life, the colors, the music, etc... suddenly everything goes disrupted by horrible orcs inhaling petroleum derivated chemicals. |

I'm suprised to hear that aciduss, there is not a lot of more efficient way to get brain damage than sniffing. The gigs I've had in Mexico were quite good I think, mostly corona and the smell of "sweet sweet sensi" 
I have yet to see someone smoke crack in a party but I guess there is a first time for anything.

A bit disturbing, Aciduss...
But I wonder if there is a positive way of looking at this...
There are two (overlapping) groups that fall for inhalant abuse: young teens and the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder. Those are the very people that might greatly benefit from this music and this community.
You see their presence at parties as a downward drag on the scene, and it may be so. But you can also think of it as an upward push for these people. Have you met any of those who quit sniffing crap as a result of getting into psytrance?

srsly, that's pretty bad - I've never seen anyone using solvents/inhalers or smoking crack at a psy festival - I've only seen coke a couple of times but then again I don't go around looking for it. The worst smells for me personally on the dance floor are...
1) cigarettes. they seriously make me throw up when I'm altered...fuck cigarettes - smoke hookah instead!
2) DMT - I love me some spirit molecule, but it smells like burning plastic. off the dance floor, please!
3) hippies @ indoor events that don't have the common courtesy to observe good hygiene practices

It has a lot to do with Mexican society and of course drug culture. Most of this teens or even children can access this drugs because they are legal, cheap and can be bought at any hardware shop... also it has a lot to do with the gangs they involve into since early age...
This people have no self respect / love whatsoever or at least that seems like... as you said this is a result of marginal life situation.
Some do it to prove they do 'everything', other because the easy access, but most do because other do and all they want is to get fucked up to forget the lousy lives they have.
Mainecoon, you have an interesting point, i have known of some cases where guys realize the great damage they do to themselves and then quit but im sure there are few.
What i find disgusting other than the smell, is the face of those kids when morning arrives, there is something in those kind of toxics that makes their face purplish and their nose and lips to irritate... they still approach and ask for hit of my joint :S
Most organizers don't do shit about this, they can take your deodorant or eye drops at the entrance but why the hell won't they take away those guy's inhalants?
I've heard incredible rumors of cages or trailer containers that are used to keep those found under heavy intoxication at massive parties...
Anyway, I find it a real problem with no easy solution and something that really degrades "the scene" here in Mexico. |

Where have you played at? This is common in central Mexico, near Guadalajara or Mexico City... i know this practice is not as common in the northern states.
