We know drugs do effect people but i get annoye by folk ranting on about how its ok to take recreational drugs they dont do you any harm.Others even go to the extreme of saying prescribed drugs are more dangerous!!!!Only if misprescribed or wrongly used ,We all know you can get addicted to prescribed drugs.But those folk who say about that then say 2 but i only smoke some weed .ive done it since i was 15.im x years old now .its not done me any harm"then you read "� While small amounts of marijuana can leave the user with a pleasant sense of being high and relaxed, long term use can have negative effects. Anxiety and paranoia are commonly reported side effects of long term or large quantity users. Also, restlessness, confusion and forgetfulness have been reported. Long term use can also lead to a decrease in sex drive and a low sperm count in men."
Or how about a little speed its harmless too?" Speed is the street name for a group of amphetamines which include "crystal meth", "ice" and "goey". The most common way to take the drug is to snort or inject it, but it can also be taken by swallowing or shafting (putting it up your bum). People who inject should use clean syringes and not share other injecting equipment to minimise the transmission of HIV and Hepatitis C."

Im afaraid i have to side against using illegal drugs .As they are illegal and i think that people going around singing their praises are follish.Teenage britain is in a bad enough state without needing some old druggies saying "take some its harmless.theyre not addictive .ive only beenn smoking 10 or 15 years on the hash.but i could stop anytime .honest"Like were that stupid we believe a druggie??

well your 14 year old must be so proud of her dad resulting to insulting others to win an argument! Brilliant. Maybe when my children get old enough I will develop and show them that side of me.

I wonder how you have coped the last 14 years without ever having your children babysat. No wonder you are so bitter, you havent been out for at least 14 years.

Goodsoulette.

I'm not bitter, and i cope very well thankyou when it comes to my children being babysat etc.

I'm a responsible parent immaterial to what you or others think, i'm not the one who does drugs remember, i'm the one that condemns them, my mind is not poisoned by drugs or booze either unlike some on here.

Responsible i am, as for you and a few others on here i suggest a long look in the mirror at yourselves might be a good starting point. Am i a bully? Am i a self opinionated person? Am i someone who dosen't live in the real world?
Am i the parent who's children will be pushed into drugs because of my facist views?

Well the answer is ''NO'' to all of these, i tell it how ''i see it''. if you or others don't like it excuse me for not shedding a tear, i'm happy with myself and my childrens upbringing, its a shame i cannot say that about a number of you on here.

Oh dear oh dear Laurence, why don't you get a life yourself instead of just critisizing others.

I do what I want when I want, it doesn't effect or harm anyone else so why should you give a toss????
Rever,

You do what you want, when you want? ie taking drugs i assume {illegal ones at that}
My moneys on you not being in control of yourself ie concentration levels, reactions etc etc when your working or driving, thats if you do work or drive, which now makes it mind and other ''law abiding'' people business as your a danger to yourself as well as the public

Junkie
I would say that any hope of reasoned debate has sailed out of the window. We've got an eloquent and thoughtful section on one side, and an abuse hurling twosome on the other. I know which ones I respect more.
So Laurance you dump your kids so you can go out? Double standards I reckon.
Goodsoulette,

I go out just like any other normal person, i don't do drugs when i off load my kids, so double standards is sort of the wrong saying.
All I said was if I wanted a drink, I would only do it when my kids were at my mums and you gave me an earful about it.


Laurence have a look at your posts all you seem to be able to do is call people names because they are different to you.

As you know everything about everything could you please tell me how me taking one ectasy tablet makes me a danger to myself and the public?? How is that different to someone going out and having 8 pints of Stella?

If I remember correctly last week you were having a go at smokers by saying if they smoke near me thats when the fun starts. To me that sounds like you getting confrontational and aggressive which in turn makes YOU a danger to the public.
rever.

Taking an ecstasy tablet is not a danger to yourself or the public?

Oh dear me, you really do have a problem then

Lia Betts ring a bell with you?
Laurence how many people die per year from alcohol and how many die from ectasy?

In 2004 there were 6544 deaths in England and Wales alcohol related. 46 from ectasy.

And how is me taking 1 ectasy tablet, not drinking alcohol and minding my own business a problem???
