    i find it strange we can stamp out illegal parking by heavy handed clamping , and yet can not do something similar, to eradicate the rise of knife culture , which I find a much more disturbing part of our society

    I agree with you to an extent. But in fairness the campers are just waiting about the place for cars. The gardai are always out and about and are over stretched. The problem won't go away without putting more gardai on the street and improving laws. I feel that Ireland has adopted the uk stance on knifes.

    It's easy to spot a badly parked car. To find a knife you generally have to invade someones privacy and search them.

    its the deterent thing - i dont understand the mentality of someone going out for a good night or day, and thinks it necessary to pack a knife - where it interferes with my or other members of our society rights, a harsh sentence should be meted out

    Look, there was 4 people slashed in Waterford a few months ago. Three of them were lucky enough to get away with minor injuries (like the majority in this story) but one of them lost a significant amount of blood and was kept in hospital for a few days. He was slashed from his ear to under his chin. That story didn't get the coverage that this incident has but I would regard that as more serious considering the severity of the injuries.

    One bad experience, sounds safe enough :pac: I know tonnes of people who did it more than regularly without any close calls.
    This bloke did it regularly, however, that is what I was saying in the previous post. It goes to show even "expierienced" users can f*ck up, and nearly end up in a body bag. He still does it now afaik.
    Exactly, the choking on vomit is more common so it doesn't even take getting to the point of alcohol poisoning for most direct alcohol-related deaths.

    I remember reading that it is rare for someone to die from an alcohol overdose, something about when you consume alcohol your body produces liquid to help "dilute" it and the main cause for alcohol related death is choking in own vomit. It can still be a dangerous drug, I'm not suggesting it isn't. I've done a few stupid binges in the past, but never ended up needing hospital treatment.

Accept it and live with it.

    Ok we arent going to agree. You are sticking to the commonly held "drugs are bad m'kay" stance. That is what you grew up with and have always been told so it's understandable. It is against the law and that is that.

    However, look at the situation logically. And that includes actually understanding what these drugs are. Then ask yourself why are these illegal in comparison to alcohol or cigarettes which has people dying in huge numbers yearly in this country. All are drugs so whats the difference? All involve substances entering the bloodstream so what is the difference?

    No need to tell me my argument is bull**** because i disagree with you. Also, your argument loses a little of its punch with the bold bit which is simplistic and frankly a little silly.

    Also, i havent once said i buy drugs from drug dealers here (have a read). I can understand that you have jumped on it given my outrageous and frighteningly anarchic argument :rolleyes:

    Again, the issue of prohibition is irrelevant to my statement. So is the issue of their use or if they are good or bad. The FACT is that drugs are prohibited. The FACT is that they are not necessary for a person to survive. This means that if you buy drugs you are choosing to give money to murderers of your own free will.

    I didnt say its the government's fault. There is absolutely nothing wrong with taking recreational drugs in moderation and alcohol is included in that. Those regular people who wanted a drink in 1930s America did so (and there were millions and millions of them) but were they wrong to do so? No, because there was no proper reason to stop people drinking alcohol. And the only difference between alcohol and the likes of marijuana is that one is legal and the other isnt. An administrative/legislative decision that is not based on the effects of the drugs in question. If it was how could alcohol be legal considering the destrction it causes?
    If drugs were legal the criminal element would be gone. By agreeing with the criminalisation of drugs you are 100% creating the illegal drug trade. That is all on you.
    You arent going to stop people taking drugs. Prohibition does not work and this has been proven time and time again to be the case. It didnt stop Americans boozing during prohibition and it wont stop people now.

    Bull****. Alcohol is legal but the criminal element is still there. Cigarettes are legal but the criminal element is still there. DVDs are legal but the criminal element is still there. Cars are legal but the criminal element is still there. Wether prohibition is right or not is not relevent. The fact is you are freely handing money to people who hurt people to get you your drugs. Accept it and live with it.

    Are you comparing drug crime, killings, beatings and all a that to illegally downloading movies??

    Also the only avenue to get drugs is thru dealers. Alcohol, ciggies and cars are slightly different

    You know as well as the poster knows that he is saying even though they are illegal/legal the criminal element is always going to be there. He is not comparing them to murderers or whatever. A criminal is just that, a criminal.

    The poster i was referring to stated that legalising drugs would remove the criminal element. Alcohol ciggies and cars are all legal but the criminal element remains so why would drugs be any different. It's naieve to think dealers will just disappear if drugs were legalised.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,325 ✭✭✭smileyj1987


    My view on drink and drugs is each to their own . If you wanna get pilled or coked off your head then do it just as long as you don't start annoying me or try to cause trouble . If you do any of this then don't take drugs or drink yourself stupid .
    What I find more worrying is the fact that people could actually get things to stab people with into concerts . That is a complete joke and they should really change the laws to stop that ever happening again .

    I agree. first thing I thought when I heard it was why they don't use those portable metal detectors for the people passing through. Have 10 different rows and the crowd will get through quickly enough, and trouble makers with knives etc. should be detected. They do this in the UK and it appears to help. Will also probably stop people sneaking in bottles/cans or anything else that may be used by a drunk person as a weapon

    Cocaine is a different story, as it is certainly not produced in Ireland. I don't know about Ecstasy, haven't a breeze where that's produced.

    I'm agreeing it's dangerous, I'm just pointing out that people think of alcohol poisoning when one doesn't need to get near that point to still possibly die. I've had a close call myself and had to roll someone on their side once. Never had a major issue with the other stuff apart from being an idiot, same as with drink.

    That's one third of them still in hospital.
    Earlier it said 1 out of 7. Anyway, just making the point that to call them all attempted murders is a bit much when details are pretty thin on the ground. Though if it turns out as it seems to be worded in that article that someone stabbed at least 9 people over the course of 4-5 hours then there may be some questions that need answering on the organisational side of things.

    If a raver scanger; let's be more precise here says "goin for a slash" yo best be sure he hasn't got blood on his hands on his return. Slashings are ten a penny at raves down the years, under the banner of 'love'. Usually by gangbangers. Fred Thompson types. There's no doubt what the core audience tends to be but they're not all utter scumbags. that would be stereotyping

    There is a horrible culture in Ireland today I think. As a nation we don't have the maturity to enjoy a glass of wine with dinner, or have two beers when we go out. There is a booze culture of getting absolutely hammered.

    If drink is a legal intoxicant and we constantly abuse that and have all sorts of trouble with it, what problems will we have with pyscho-tropic drugs available for people to buy legally?

    Couple that with an alarming rise in knife carrying among youths and a plummeting in societies moral and values (life becoming very cheap very fast) and there is a horrible potential for mayhem.
