And the drug prohibition carrots on, lol XOXOX
now that it is illegal, it has come of the internet and hit the streets. Now kids don't need there parents credit card, they just need simple money. And the price hasn't changed to much, but the quality has gone down, some times cut with Meth!
@Xerotaerg No, Full out blown legalisation of drugs can not be found in the world. In some countries using heroin isn't condoned but is regulated. And some countries or states have relaxed laws on Cannabis. I believe legalising will bring more people to consume, BUT! What they will be taking will be of better quality and less dangerous. Plus it would remove a lot of the criminal aspect, making it just safer. But not safe. Then people would maybe get board and not consume.
kids as young as 12 are taking heroin, now thats a problem.
Cocaine is A but it is ridiculously easy to get hold of. Banning Mephedrone will, as the lady says, have a negative impact.
No difference. It needs making class D and we can clamp on kids getting it.
this drug is awful and needs to get banned! kids as young as 12 are taking it!! at least if it was banned it would be harder to get hold of and potentialy save some lives...
latest deaths of the two lads from Scunthorpe involved mephedrone, methadone and alcohol which they had been consuming through to the early hours of the morning. I'm not a chemist, but mixing methadone with alcohol is healthy? Thought not
completely agree... if people want to stick drugs up their nose, in their lungs and in their veins, they will do regardless of legality... all drugs should be controlled and regulated to make them safe.. could even be taxed with the money used to educate people of the side effects
the thing to do is to legalize the drugs that the legal highs are trying to immitate like mdma and to regulate them
