- Do you use drugs? No
- Have you ever used drugs, and if so, do you regret it? Yes and No
- Do any of your friends use drugs, and if so, how do you feel about this? Yes, but only hash really
- What do you think of people who do use drugs? I think they make their own choices and will have to live with the consequences of those choices.
- Do you class all drugs the same? No. I would never, and have never touched Heroin. But, I have no issue with someone smoking a joint.
- What do you think of "recreational drug use"? I used to do it, from Thursday to Sunday. It wasn't anymore expensive than going out on the lash all weekend. And, it was more the "done thing" back in the early 90s.
- Do you consider some drugs to be safe? Yes, hash.
- Would you like to see any drugs legalised/decriminalised? Yes, hash.
- Do you class all drug users the same? Definitely not. I think Heroin addicts are a drain on society. Most of them rob/steal to feed their habits, which affects me. Other drug users only affect themselves and their own life.
- Do you think the current methadone program is worthwhile? Definitely not. Studies show that methadone is more addictive than heroin. I believe in "cold turkey". Once someone has gone through that, they will be less likely to go back. Don't make it easy to quit, or else where's the incentive to stay "quit".
- Do you think that kids are well enough educated nowadays about the risks of drugs? I actually do not know, which is one of the main reasons I started this thread. I'm interested to know what kind of msg our education system is giving to the youth of today. Zammo didn't do it for me..
