You've just presented a good argument for legalisation there. Well done.
Gangsters don't fight turf wars over the control of the alcohol and tobacco markets. People don't generally rob houses to pay for their alcohol or tobacco addictions. You've just presented another good case for legalisation of drugs. You're good at this!
Which drugs? What do you mean by "addiction"?
Which "lefties" are calling for a ban on restricting smoking? Name them.
Do they? Name them and quote them.
Errrrmmm...I work in substance misuse. I'm well aware of the damage that drugs do. I'm also aware that the damage could be minimised by legalisation, as are most people who work in substance misuse.
Errr...the law is enforced.
You don't actually have a clue what you're on about. Which drugs are you talking about here?
Translation - I don't know what I'm on about.
I wouldn't call heroin addicts pathetic. Troubled yes. Pathetic, no.
Are you "hooked" on alcohol? If not, why not?
Which laws aren't being enforced properly?
Why do drugs laws need to be enforced? You still haven't come up with even one reason.
It's undeniable that liberalisation would help addicts and virtually negate drug-related crime and it's fascistic to suggest that people should be prosecuted for making a personal choice which affects no-one but themselves and indeed may very well improve their lives.
So come on...why?
Legalisation of drugs means addicts can be supplied on the NHS so drug-related crime is negated, people are allowed to make a rightful choice without fascistic persecution and organised crime suffers a major blow.
Illegality gives us a massive crime problem, health problems through black market supply (contamination of heroin is a big one...otherwise a perfectly safe drug physically, prohibition effectively kills injecting users), is the single biggest fund raiser for organised criminals and infringes despicably upon people's rights as autonomous individuals....so how can you justify it?
Good on you Spliffie!
You're not actually reading my posts properly are you? If you bothered responding to them, you'd see where I was going. But no, you'd rather just thrown your toys out of the pram. :rolleyes: Way to fucking go eh?
Get over it.
You're just agreeing with mr 'cos you're deflecting from the fact that you ain't got a leg to stand on in this debate. I do have a robust debating style, but this ain't the fucking nursery is it?
That's because i was smoking a doobie and he wasn't :thumb:
now i know why i was missing you so much blag ...i'm nearly crying here!
Aahhhh, well guess what? I don't give a fuck
What? 'cos I swear a bit? Fuck me, bit sensitive you lot. Guess what? I'm mostly having a laugh on here, same as you. Get a grip.
I like an argument? Is that it? Don't we all? That's why we're all here after all. Stop taking it so seriously. Lighten up.
Nice one Rolly. :thumb:
I was pointing out (Ok admittedly in a sarcastic way) that some of your points were actually in favour of legalisation if you thought about them a bit more. I was also asking you questions to clarify your position and understanding. If you'd gone with it, we wouldn't be having this idiotic exchange. I'm not singling you out, you're paranoid!

Fucking ridiculous...so there's little doubt the buffoons who comprise the Scottish Executive will give it their full support.
