“Before christmas the police sent round a leaflet in meir basically what it said was hooray weve just got rid of a dealer from round the corner but what it should of said is its taken three years to close a drug den down but and its a humungous but they have moved a few doors down well the next street actually but you know what i mean but what really got me was the people that first reported them were hounded out of their own houses so i can understand now why people dont report them which is the lesser of to evils report and you get your window smashed /abused physically /mentally perhaps get burgled just for good measure or do you leave them to get on with it and have strangers lurking round all day and night perhaps they use the alley behind you as a place to have a fix leave needles for all to see PS you will get all of these if you report them or not as it takes years just to move them to the next street any way so there is no answer you can not win either way”

“Cllr Webb. I have just viewed you "Liberatian Party" website.
It made amusing reading. OF interest, there are only 1660 online members!!!!! What huge support you have nationwide eh?!”

“Save it Webb, you as much use as an ashtray on a motor bike.
Merry Christmas”

“Will try for a third time. For an organisation who also thinks the drugs war isn't working, and who suggest a more sensible, sustainable route down which to travel, Google 'Transform Drugs Policy' Foundation and visit their website.”

“ooh! assumptions now? what a surprise,
HARK!! what was that? nothing just the muffled ramblings of a tightly closed mind,

So whats the answer?
I dunno,
so....... we just keep on spending millions like we have been doing for years?.......
yeah,
but,....but, it doesnt WORK, yeah I know, BUT we DO get lots of GREAT publicity every time we bust some low level dealers, and that makes all those nice tax paying folk THINK that we have the upper hand in the "war" on drugs,......
the war on drugs? didnt we lose that in 1979? shhhhhhhhhh THEY dont know that,”

“Once again we get the usual ramblings from someone so doped up on drugs they can't see the real world in front of them!

Yes, alcohol causes problems but society is pretty much stuck with it because it is socially established. Why make matters worse by legalising a whole host of other drugs and hence unleashing goodness-knows-what on the rest of us?

And even aside from the direct consequences of people freely abusing other drugs - who exactly would be likely to control the supply of these other drugs? Exactly the same people that control their supply right now. Hardly fine upstanding businessmen that are pillars of the community...!”

“The big, red door knocking in thing must be well used now. Well done boys. I for one live in hope that the British Justace System don't let the good work go again.”

“Looks as though the people at number 10 have been visited by the local constab before by the looks of the door. (at will)
The drugggies in the end move to another area a bit like problem families to continue their unsocial habits. Must not forget they are people that have been failed by ?
They are a from all walks of life from a beggar to - think of a profession. They are someone¿s son ,daughter, sister, brother, cousin, father, uncle, mother, there again it's not like we have no insight of the downside of Heroin and yet some of us choose not only to experiment but to embrace this unglamorous/desperate lifestyle.

The role of the police and has been for decades is of the pest controller who has been called out for the umpteenth time to rid the land of an infestation of moles. He plugs the holes before reassuringly telling the owner, that's the last you'll see of them. The owner sleeps well for a while. The pest controller returns to his or her base satisfied that his boss will mark it down as a success and possibly enter it into the local news letter as the biggest success ever.”

“eyeswideshut...."dispensers of misery" eh? I know LOADS of places that dispense misery, and they have people coming and going at all hours, these people come out and they brawl, vomit, urinate, make lots of noise, many of them are addicted to the toxic and deadly drug that costs the NHS and the tax payer millions every year, not to mention the millions of police hours and again millions of pounds of tax payers money, but the police dont kick THEIR doors in because the misery THEY dispense is legal,
MY eyes are wide open and a drug is a drug, legality or otherwise cant change that,
Alcohol IS a class A DRUG.
legalise them ALL, create jobs generate revenue free up police time and prison space, put the criminal gangs out of business,
OR criminalise them ALL, and drop the double standards,
hey look the Emperor is naked.”

“Good police work backed up with a completely useless justice system !”
