Totally agree with you Vorlon.

All very well the idea that people should be allowed to do as they please but look how much crime is drug related. When people are addicted how do they fund their addiction? Why should other people have to suffer because of them?

That's quite apart from the cost to the NHS when the money could be better spent elsewhere.

If it were a case of whatever a drug addict brings upon themselves they should suffer the consequences at no cost to the rest of society and if they obtained their drugs without recourse to theft and damage of other people's property you might, just might have a leg to stand on kestrelx.

But that's before we get to the issue of pushers at the school gates trying to force the vile stuff upon our kids.

Having been the victim of a mugging by someone under the influence of drugs don't expect me ever to approve of them. Can't see Roy feeling kindly towards whoever his burglar was either and 9 times out of 10 so I'm told by police such burglaries are committed by drug addicts.

Yes heroin has a vice like grip and obviously not everyone is able to resist.
