MDMA should be reviewed and rescheduled due to the fact that the initial scheduling reports were flawed, there are vast medical uses for MDMA in treating patients who have shown no improvements with other psychological treatments, and there is a very low possibility of death amongst users of unadulterated MDMA. Why must we withhold a drug that can be so very useful for the treatment of extreme mental conditions and possibly cure thousands of Americans of their
Not everyone will experience all the emotional or physical responses that HIV/AIDS can cause.

Jalal Bennett English III Pd.4 How The HIV/ AIDS Outbreak In The 1980’s Relates To The Crucible Typically people haven’t been known to deal with things they are uncertain of very well. The aids hysteria is very similar to the Salem witch trials because both cases were caused by fear. The people didn’t know how to deal with the situation. Also in both cases extreme measure were taken to keep the witches and those with aids away from the rest of society so the people who had the disease or problem wouldn’t give it to those who didn’t. Many people were also accused and given false labels during both of these times, innocent people were accused of being witches, and given the label a witch, and during the aids hysteria people were considered gay or a drug user if you had aids, even if you weren’t.
