When an individual uses roofies as a way to date rape another person, the individual that is given the drug usually has only mild recollections of the incident. Every year in America, thousands of women and young teen girls are date raped by roofies, and many of these women have unexpected children, obtain diseases, and live their life in fear that another incident like what they experienced might one day happen again. Roofies are by far an unsafe and unwanted drug in America, and are constantly causing individuals to suffer from addiction as well as suffering from problems that come when the drug is administered without knowledge.
