Hmmm... I've of a sort of mixed opinoin on this one. I think it would be a good idea to decriminalise SOME drugs ie marijuana, and tax them, control them and monitor the usuage.
Decriminalising weed would free up huuuge amounts of police resources, earn an income for the government to use on other things which are a MUCH bigger problem than weed (maybe spend it on putting covers on those cheesecutters!!).
I'm not against things like E, lsd, party pills etc... I would be more for if they were sold over the counter but controlled with warning labels, recommended dosage etc... Yes, it sounds ludicrious but then the people who were taking it would actually know what they were taking rather than something cut to shit with rat bait or whatever else.
On P though, that needs to be eradicated from society. Utterly and completely.
It'd be hard to decide which drugs to decriminalise and which are to remain illegal, but the strongly addictive ones (such as P) would be a good start.

" Life is not a rehearsal, it's as happy or miserable as you want to make it"
So getting your mum to make you a remedy then going to bed is your definition of "hardening up"? I love the way it's ok for you to make outlandish statements like it's gospel, but if anyone else does, they're an idiot. Stop being a tosser, I know you're better than that.
No, that was an option for those with a cold whom felt they couldn't make it without medication - in repsonse to MDU suggestion that HTFU was not an acceptable option.
And there is no need for you to get your mum to make it, you can do this yourself, if you're really stuck let me know and I'll send you the recipe.
Seriously, you don't mean to tell me that you actually take medication for a cold?
Than who Slyer?
This guy perhaps?
I would suggest that part of having higher standards is not being judgemental and keeping an open mind.
I've watched and mused about the war on drugs for a long time. Billions of dollars are spent by nations trying to block drugs and deal with the victims. Nothing works. Every decade drug use appears to become more pervasive.
The upside is most people do not become druggies.
I've come to the reluctant view that the only answer is to allow drug use to be lawful. Remove the criminal element, bring the cost down to a packet of cigarettes. No more burglaries/muggings to support a desperate habit.
Yes - we'd still have the Minnie Elders of the world, hopelessly hooked - but we already accept alcoholics who are no less damned. There are always vulnerable people.
Oh yea,
Poor Poor Poor Minnie Elder.....it was always the road she was going to take, she had no choice, almost child abuse really. Step father multi millionare, blessed with good looks.
What options did she have?
None!
There was no way in the world she was going to get out of the destructive loop of drugs and crime.
Everyone knows that when you have no opportunities to get a head start in life (rich good looking girls just have no chance) and the violent dangerous world of WHORING yourself out to a drug dealer (apparently) to get your $1000 a day P habit "fix" is your only option.
Poor poor girl.
She just doesn't deserve to be a good looking rich girl, and have to bear all the terrible things in life that come with it.
Her life would have been so much better if she was pig dog ugly and poor as a church mouse.
Maybe she would have gone to University and studied to become a doctor or something.
Now the poor wee dear will have to write a book or someshit like that, and have to attach her pretty ass to the coat tails of her step father and (most likely) become spokesperson of an anti drug campaign (and command appearance fees for public engagements)
My heart bleeds for ya Minnie!
And also for your step father, Paul Holmes.......... I really am sad for him, now all of New Zealand see's him as a FAILURE as a Father............when prior to this we all had pictures of him in our lounge rooms.
It's a sad sad day.
Yea, well I guess it does sound quite uncaring, and sure, the Methanphetamine problem NZ has really does sadden me (serious).
I guess my problem in this case is that we all know that there is a HIGH chance that Paul Holmes' step daughter will get preferential treatment by the Courts.
I remember a few years ago she was in the shit with the law as well (drugs then too), & I am all for leniency when it come to "first offence" situations........ but........
Previous involvement with the law for drugs
GUILTY AS SIN on this count.....Involving "P"....and "gang connections"
Basically, if this was some poor "minority" case, she would be serving time...... the law takes a dim view on this (as it should), but, "Step Daddy" clearly paid for her to be in some "I'm so rich, I am a drug addict" programme In the express hope it will win favour with the courts.
What lesson will she learn from this?
Money will buy you happyness
OK, it is really premature to predict anything, but reading the articles (including her interviews), "Step Daddy Paul Holmes" has already made this MUCH MUCH easier on her than it Could/should have been.
Why?
He is ONLY PAUL HOLMES!
He should have no "sway" whatsoever with anyone in a position of upholding the law.
He's just a bloody over rated TV presenter/radio host (oh, hang on, he did put out an "album" once (bwbababababababa!)
So does that make him a "rock star?", and as such, catapult him into the influential sphere that us mortals can only dream of?
If so, then I will start looking for a job in radio, do a spell on local TV, then stamp out a totally SHIT HOUSE "christmas album" (I would only need to sell 25 copies or so to beat his "chart success" in the hope that my future children will benefit from my status as a "celebrity" and receive special treatment in their future.
I'm sorry than anyone is a P addict, but I am not sorry Paul Holmes is having his shit shown in public....... he did get rich at THE TAX PAYERS EXPENSE AFTER All!
Let us never forget that!
To be honest, I feel a little better that as tax payers we where giving millions each year, now that I get to watch all this play out.
I also wonder.....has Minnie ever had a job? He said himself she is on the dole......... Kind of like her step dad aye.......... when does her album,featuring the "hit song" "SUCKING HEAD HUNTER COCK FOR P" COME OUT?
I'm not wanting to draw parallels here.....but let us not forget the "Paris Hilton drunk driving" thing..... she was sentenced to some time in the slammer..........daddy "pulled strings" to get her out. (booooo!)
HOWEVER...... the Judge got wind of this, and sent Police out to the Hilton Estate to take her back to finish her sentence....... (YAY!!!!!!)
It isn't so much that she went back, MY problem is the fact that she actually got out (for a while), just because her DADDY is super rich!
I recon a few months "licking carpet" in a woman's prison would be a good thing for Paul Holmes step daughter........ they could make it into a doco (Paul Holmes voice over) and show her sobbing (like Shapel Corby) at how unfair it is etc, or maybe a few scenes where she has to hide her cell phone "somewhere secret" from the Prison Officers......
I would watch every episode.
I have sympathy for P addicts who come from lower socioeconomic situations, it is a hard circle to break (really hard), but come on........... In NZ, what better start in life could you ever hope to have than being the pretty (step) daughter of a (loosest term) "celeb"?
Pretty rich girls don't have to do much. (Paris Hilton,Nikki Watson)
Ugly ones do (Hellen Clarke,Margaret Thatcher)
As a "P" user I find it hard to stop. I've tried but even singing the Alphabet song without it is hard. It just throws me.
My life without P would mean that;
- my wife would be on the "ill".
- when I sit a test I'd be sitting there hoping for "ass".
- an ale a day would keep the doctor away.
- my speeding tickets would be written out by an "Olice" Officer. It'd be hard not to laugh.
- I'd be doing track days at "Ukekohe."
Sing with me... and try to let go of "p"
