bensonhedges   10 #27 Posted December 31, 2006 Drugs have been used by man since time immemorial and I believe always will be. Eric and his ilk can complain all they want - drugs will be with us forever.  Quote Barnie41 - "Don't try to justify their activities under any banner of being normal."  Now let's be right Barnie - do you mean statistically "normal" or Daily Mail "normal"? Cos there's a vast difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
pattricia   575 #28 Posted December 31, 2006 and the whole point of what im trying to say is exactly that, you cannot simply state all drugs are bad, all people who use / sell / grow drugs are bad life is not purely black and white, theres grey areas   the person buying the drug in the car may have been an off duty police man, a solicitor whoever, they might have 1 or 2 drugs on a saturday night which doesnt impact on the body / life AT ALL should they go to prison just because somebody decrees all recreational drugs should be illegal?   Do you take the "Happy Baccy" then Mel ?

b1u3grass   10 #29 Posted December 31, 2006 barnie41, they are everyday normal people, thats why you can't tell! i.e. pick them out of the crowd  personely i believe violence goes with alcohol, nasty controlling stuff that should be banned, which is also pushed by the criminal elite.  these thing are just not black and white, if drugs were that bad then should i not report my gp? they always give me something to take home!  to the OP if bothers you or you think its dangerous, report it. Otherwise act like the general public and pretend its not your problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Queen P Â Â 10 #30 Posted December 31, 2006 I think the original posting was a warning,many parents in that area i am sure would be glad of the info alot of kids hang round the four greens.And we all know that alcohol and cigs are classed as a drug but i for one would rather my kid try a cig or take a swig of alcopop that shove something class a up his nose or in a his arm.

bigwind   10 #32 Posted December 31, 2006 its hard to explain but as i see it, it all cant just be lumped together  4: its not a defeatist attitude i just dont see its as bad as most people make out precisely for the above points, it aint black and white, it aint a blanket all drugs are bad, all dealers are violent thugs......each activity should be handled on merit tbh  tell that to the old lady who's just been mugged by a smack head in crookes, or to the old man on parson cross who was badly beaten by druggies after they ransacked his house looking for cash for their next fix. more importantly tell it to my friend who died when crashing his car whilst smoking a joint, weed he bought from a mate, who was " just a normal nice bloke" ALL drugs are bad, ALL dealers in controlled substances are scum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
