I feel sorrow for us and the parents of some fool that kills himself taking drugs. For the money wasted on raising the fool.

But really the country is better off without him/or her. They would not be of benefit to us if they are stupid enough to take the drugs. Same as swimming in a river when crocs or sharks have been sighted. Their own stupidity!

Certainly not taxpayer funded pill testing and I even have reservations about Ambos treating drug overdoses at the, so called, music festivals or other places

there needs to be some form of harm mitigation.
Shadow Minister,
I believe anything we do to help is going against everything we stand for by relieving these morons of responsibility. Take drugs, you can die ! We can't do or say any more.
The swamp of stupidity needs draining so, why not let it be self-draining ?

Yuytsu yes agree in reality the thread has gone places I do not want to go
Party drugs are not killing addicts but normal kids we if they had been ours would make us proud
My lurch in this thread to dirty cops, comes from pure contempt for the understanding our courts and yes police help the trade at times
And get wealthy doing it
Lets stop the trade
Prison, confiscate ALL property and wealth
Legalize the less dangerous drugs
And stop devaluing lives by complaining about the costs involved

So, a couple of you are saying that personal responsibility should be replaced by Big Brother "harm mitigation. Come on fellas, you are not doing anyone any favours, and you are not only condoning drug use, you are also speeding up the loss of moral fibre among the young. Trying to replace crappy parents with crappy bureaucrats will only make things worse.

What we need is a return to the days when parents were loving mentors, not 'friends’ to spoilt brats; when parents didn't try to live their own lives through the kids. And yes, let's bite the bullet and resist the ridicule, a return to a Christian upbringing

ttbn,
That raises a much bigger question:
WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?

Jesus responded by helping people in trouble. His response was diametrically opposed to the rightwing strategy of condemning people in the vain hope that doing so would deter others from doing the wrong thing.

And your claim that harm minimisation amounts to replacing personal responsibility (or even parents) is one of the sillier strawmen around. Augmenting something doesn't amount to replacing it.
