Strange shop on West Street.

'Bud'?? It's a whole new language.

 

Personally I would rather come accross neither group and I suspect most people (perhaps not on here but in society generally) feel the same.

 

Sweeping generalisations, holier than thou judgmental pronouncements, and arrogance in the belief of being 'The Vox Populi'.......

 

maybe you should go into politics slim.

Are you saying that the majority of the population of the UK are PRO drugs. I don't think so. Remember Sheffield forum is not a representative sample of the country as a whole.

"heads" was the late 60s term for hippies (sort of) and so a "headshop" is a hippyshop.

 

"bud" is generally used these days to mean marijuana - though more speciflcaly the actually bud of the plant.

 

I'm sure that will help the debate along a little...

the vast majority of the country are certainly not pro drugs. however that doesn't mean we shouldn't have a serious rethink about drug laws and the way they affect people.

 

there are hundreds of people in this city who are basically hard working, responsible adults who choose to take something as a 'mood lifter' at the weekend when they out. these people aren't criminals and its ludicrous to make them so for their choice of intoxicant.

 

drugs can kill. then again so can water if used irresponsibly. prohibition historically has never worked and its not working now. the country is awash with drugs. isn't it about time we faced up to the reality rather than keep fooling ourselves that everythings ok?

People don't enter a life of crime so they can buy some white lightning do they?

 

erm,yes You obviously have not heard of alchoholism

[Paulmat 10]

no. but someone having a gram of coke or a few pills at the weekend is a world away from murdering or raping someone.

 

i understand you are a policeman? you better than anyone should be able to see the benefits of decriminalised, taxed drugs that are bought under condition?

 

I agree. I think it's a good shop, never seems at all 'dodgy' when i've been in. Personally I think it's better for people to buy controlled legal 'drugs' than any oldd crap off the streets.

oh right...thanks for that I have never heard of alcoholism...muppet:loopy:

[Wonder Boy 10]

"kids buy gear from these shops?"

 

are you sure, some very small minded people on here who clearly belive everyhing you read in the "Daily mail"

 

"druggys mugging and rapeing"

 

Genius

 

GET OUT MORE!!

 

No just real life experience of dealing with the effects drugs have on the lives of young adults.

[Wonder Boy 10]

Totally agree with you:thumbsup:

 

But you know we've got to 'live and let live' .

 

I agree...but 14 year old boys can't really be expected to make the same informed choices an adult can.

[Stockers 10]
