What I object to is that we talk about druggies being "clean" and "rehabilitated" when in fact we have just started feeding them with a legal drug, maintaining their addiction at tax payer's expense. Doesn't make them any use to society. Lock 'em up in a cell with nothing but food and water for a bit of cold turkey and contemplation I say. You reap what you sow after all.

Costs us money to lock 'em up.  As does shooting, though its much cheaper.

[cem_devecioglu]

More than the drug users ,the producers of those things are guilty..

The punishment what TheBoy says is necessary for them..

Although I'm bad in organic chemistry, from what I remember alkoloids (all these kind of stuff)  have one very aggresive molecular structure that binds to brain neurons ..And force the person that they think this is something they cant live without

I like a drink occasionally. Bet the government won't pay for an alternative for me

 >:(Just read your post & was going to say your money went up her arm or wherever she could find a vein. You did right not to beat her even though she deserved it.
        In my teens i took all sorts of powders & pills but NEVER injected anything. No excuses. They know what they're getting into the first hit they take & deserve no sympathy for the mess they get themselves into thereafter. This is'nt an inexperienced view, i've seen one friend die, one lose an arm below the elbow due to a "bad hit" and known of two i did'nt care about die in sqats or public toilets.  What makes it worse is the first two were girls & i attended the funeral of one & watched her parents grieving. That puts a lump in the biggest mans throat. She was 26, a Mum, worked successfully as a french polisher. What a waste. Sad thing is i knew her before so saw it all.
     I do'nt have the answers but smack is a rough trot & you're an innocent victim.

Hope you're OK

and next time be wary of Oirish accents not in sight of a caravan or flatbed truck

I'd find the little bitch and give her a clouting

Was this at Cardiff central James    It's a well known hotspot for the homeless, drunks ETC.

I have found in the past that the station personnel take a blind eye to vagrants pestering people out side at the cash points. Much the same thing happened to me in broad daylight about two years ago.

It's not a very good welcome into what is really a nice friendly City  

I always get off at Queen street and go into one of the main Banks off the high street now.

I don't know what the world is coming to

Oh Dear, things never change, remember a song by Stepenwolf called "God Dam the Pusher". One of the lines goes " I seen a lot of people walking around with tombstones in their eyes". Its so true, society is such that people who don't conform to the norm get made outcasts, no use to anyone. They get hooked on Drugs, and become a drain on society's resources. Who knows what they could become if they had the chance to full develop or avoid The Pusher. We repress cultures that are different and offer a totally different, in a lot of ways better, way of life because they don't conform to the norm that we live with. Witness the situation in Burma, and a bit further back Tibet, that was "anexed" by Chairman Mao and his croneys. We live in a society that is controlled by Computer, badly, but it makes life simple for the civil servants so thats it. Things have to change from the top down if we want to avoid an even worse situation.
Life is a .........

Yes, it was very near the Central station mate. That's where I got off, and withdrew the wedge. from the said cashpoints.

I've been getting the train to Cardiff for 2 years without any problem, often late at night too due to my shift work. I then walk down to riverside. Like I say, I've never had a problem in Cardiff until now, however I've never been entirely comfortable with my walk. It's still better than driving though, because the train is A) Half the cost, with no bridge tolls, and B) Means I don't have to leave my Shiny new car in a dubious area!

I spent most of the afternoon at the police station yesterday... with some very friendly officers. And it looks like they've now got a lead that's going to result in an arrest  

I must be careful what I say publically, but, The "bit of information" I mentioned in the first post.... is that when forcefully retrieving my wallet etc..  I was able to "retrieve" something else also, that has led the police to her identification.

I was worried it would be frowned upon by plod, especially coupled with my forceful retrieval of my wallet....but thankfully, was applauded
