NEED HALP PLEASE! I found a bunch of mushrooms that I think are Liberty Caps!!

Habitat: On an old cow pasture in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada(PCNW), mostly along the edge of the tallest grass among about shin high grass patches. Most found on SOIL usually in the vicinity of cow dung but NEVER on the dung itself, some found growing in soil up through wood chips.
Gills: tan to dark brown (will post pics of variations), all attached, gills
Stem: *measured from bottom of stem to tip of cap* 5cm-15cm, diameter 2mm(top) - 4mm(bottom), most stay white/tan but some bruised blue, bare, hollow, thin, usually wavy
Cap: Diameter NO larger than 5cm when curled up, ranging from light tan to dark brown/blue for old ones, smooth caps found with wet slightly slimy nipple, i guess conical?(refer to pictures) convex. *I noticed that on a lot of the smaller young ones that have not yet coned and are almost spherical*
Spore print color: am not sure?!?! i cant tell if im high or if I just cant disguinguish between purple, dark brown, and black :S any tips on how to tell??? ive got most of them on this paper and the tops of the mushrooms as well have some spore particulate that fell as i was picking them. ALTHOUGH i think it is dark purple/dark brown. it doesnt look like black to me
Bruising: About 20% of the mushrooms that I picked bruised dark blue, however most found did not. I found this strange as many were picked either right next to the ones that bruised blue
Other information: smells mildly mushroomy, nothing special that i noticed about the scent, taste is also mildly mushroomy
THE FIRST picture are the ones that im 99%sure of since they bruised blue and all have a distinct nipple and have a dark brown spore print
any special requests will be fullfilled, but I am currently dehumidifying all of them in case they are what i think.
please give me any tips to help me identify other than eating them! thanks a million!

Panaeolus papilionaceus is my guess. Some look like Psathyrella.

None of them are liberty caps in my opinion Looks like a bunch of inactive pans
Which ones did you think where 'blueing'? I see some spores on caps... Where in the world are you?

The purple will be purple, and the black will be black.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

in a professionals opinion should i eat like 5 caps and see what happens? i at 2 caps already of the dark bruised ones about 5 hours ago and nothing really has happened other than i feel slightly different. no visuals or anything? face slightly flushed but no head ache or naseau or pain or anything.

Spore print first. Please just do it. Post a photo if you cannot tell the color. Don't just eat them. Please, don't just eat them.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO  NEVER EAT A WILD MUSHROOM UNLESS YOU ARE 100% SURE OF IT IDENTITY WHEN IN DOUBT THROW IT OUT.
It's a bad idea to eat a unknown mushroom so don't. many people already told you that they are not active so why would you do it

*although there are not active it doesnt mean they are not edible* I picked em anyway man id rather not let em go to waste if the chances are good that they arent poisonous. by no means was i considering consuming mass amounts. been to various friends and sites, isnt looking good for my future of tripping but doesnt mean they cant be consumed, granted it wont be as enjoyable. and i did post a pic of the spores.
can post more. best way to extract?

None of your mushrooms are active.
Also, I am pretty sure there are a couple of Conocybe or Bolbitius. No good for you sir.
Just relax junior. Do not eat any of these.
