    This thread is not about either of those subjects but about the hypocrisy of human behaviour.


    I.E. On the one hand, outraged about discriminate animal suffering but quite happy to indiscriminately kill perfectly healthy human beings!

    I have no preconceived opinions on either subject but do wonder about the consistency of human behaviour at these times. Just wondering?
    Very dangerous subject my friend as regardless of your caveat, you're sure to get some whacko's responding with their pro-life or pro-choice sound bytes. However, I do agree with you regarding how hypocritical as a species we are. I work in a political environment and some of the things I witness on a day to day basis leave me wanting to bang my head against a wall....hang on..

    Hey...we could always not do the abortions and then test the synthetic drugs on the unwanted babies...just sayin'. I'm pretty sure I've solved this one and we can now officially close this thread. You're welcome.

    In today's age there is no need for animals to be used.
    Waste of money, dogs are far cheaper.

    It's not the tax-payer's money that will be paying for these tests.

    By giving the legal high manufacturers access to cheaper (and far less accurate) testing methods the government is simply helping to maximise the manufacturers profits.

    The government had the opportunity to set the bar as high as they possibly could for the manufacturers to get their products back on the market. Instead they have simply made it easier for the manufacturers to continue causing considerable harm to New Zealand communities.

    Gotta love ethics eh? Can make an animal do meth, but it's not ethical to test meth on humans.

    Just ban the shit, a revenue stream from sales of this crap is not worth the lives that are getting fucked up

    Last time I checked...Meth was illegal. Doesn't stop people using it though.

    Silly sausage, I was meaning the synthetic drugs that are still legal.

    Somebody on here suggested once to make weed legal because legislation doesn't work.
    So we may as well not make anything illegal.

    Humans are funny. I'm going back to my planet now.

    I firmly believe that it is the prohibition of cannabis that has led people to formulate products that can be passed as a legal alternative.

    The fact that these synthetic alternatives are undoubtedly causing considerable harm to New Zealand communities both in the short term and the long term makes the continuing prohibition of cannabis even more bewildering.

    I agree, will sort the men from the masses! (although I have proven I suck at it, even though I have never had a ticket)

    Yay I started another one of these!
    Not that I've worked with the left overs from the less wonderful side of pot, but according to most it's perfect, it's harmless. And then the paranoia comes out... and the depression, the dependency...
    But, we should ban the synth shit, it's incredibly dangerous.

    BAN IT ALL, LIVE ON OATCAKES!
