Peter
non tested, anything goes

im not sure of the legal advising. like i said, they are legal to own here (but, not to buy or sell). Actually - the law enforcement is know to take advantage of this law. I train with some of them occasionally. odd.

So we are back to grey area and seeking middle ground. I say teach safe usage and convince yourself and others that you don't need steroids to get stronger, when that takes away from an obvious mind body soul balance, that is crucial for functionability in life.

Do both. And the best way to do it would be have a class on safe usage, so everyone knows, and okay maybe that results in a couple more users, but then go kick everybody's ass you think may be doing them, and there you add 2 and you subtract 20, and then the one oddball that just got worse from you kicking his ass, well you hopefully luck out and put him in treatment before he kills himself.

Either way, with trying or not trying, it could result in death or overdose (am i wrong?), and if not, perhaps later down the road it will. If you kill them now or later, it's still killing them, but we do that all the time don't we, we flick people off and give them heart attacks, and take no blame.

And if someone actually gives a shit, then get off the computer and go do something about the world. If not, then at least let the guy teach safe habits, while giving him shit about screwing up young kids because he is worried about what other people may think about him.

My unasshole advice= teach class on safe usage, then send out an email awareness to the parents about symptoms of drug useage so the parents can help identify users.

If the kid is really good at hiding it, then he's probably good enough not to overdose, and maybe smart enough to get off it himself.

Good luck, and sorry for being a dick, I'm sure it just makes me look like a moron.
couple things,

- The safe usage technique which is taught by most = no usage. Very few highly competitive athletes are going to accept this.

- you cant OD on steroids.

- they are 18-25, i doubt many of them are living with their parents. and besides that I doubt most parents are going to notice symptoms such as : reduction in HDL, increase in LDL, etc..
