    Drugs are dangerous and illegal. Driving a car is not. There is absolutely no sensible, rational argument for putting illegal drugs into your body. So in my opinion, if you make the selfish, conscious decision to take illegal drugs and are injured or die as a result, it is your own fault and no one else's, and I have no sympathy for you. My deepest sympathies will be with your family and anyone else affected, but not with you.

    Can you link one death caused by cannibas?


    How about that flu vaccine, wasn't that a legal drug?:eek: Narcolepsy for everybody.

    Would you see anything like this at a concert in Galway or Cork? I sincerely doubt it.

    The scum of Dublin showing their true colours once again, these are the guys we should be packing off to foreign shores, not our talented young professionals.

    Cork has plenty of scumbags who would be only too happy to run riot
    People were bussed from all over the country to the gig. I wouldn't say the fights and drug taking were the exclusive reserve of Dubliners.

    As to Galway do a quick search of YouTube for rag week activities and you'll see some scummy carry on.

    Even if it was just Dublin scumbags acting up what can we do about it ? This is a problem for society as a whole. We should be able to go to a concert or public event without fear of attack

    Dublin has a much higher population and % of young people than anywhere else in the country. Anyway, I think this is a poor generalisation of Dublin people, but its expected in a thread like this.

    There are hundreds of death that are directly linked to cannabis.

    You buy it from a dealer, that dealer uses the money to buy more illegal drugs and weapons. Other drug dealers want to make money so they kill each other for control, money and power. The money that is paid for cannabis contributes to people dying. If you think otherwise you are wrong.

    Directly - effect on the body

    Indirectly - Laws which prohibit its use, which gives dealers powers

    Take a look at that video, oh yes looks so inviting! How dare you try and play down what has happened...
    If I was in this atmosphere I would be sh##ting myself. Scumbags mad off their faces with knives.... guess you're lucky you were nowhere near the vicinity of the stabbings. Hope these filthbags who are arrested do serious time, but thats not gonna happen because the justice system in this country is an absolute joke.

    i have a cousin who works as a teacher,she is in her 20's and says the disrespect and slurring name calling and general attitude towards adult teachers is shocking,all on their iphones listening to pop songs,and chewing gum,she said there a lot more shallow now,its all media,and just rubbish,even in her day as a pupil the late 90's early 00's,there wasnt half the amount of disrespect there is now she said.Shes only on an internship there but she sees what its like there now.She said the uk apparently was worse,and shes looking for paid work over there..

    Same as an awful lot of stuff made in Italy or that passes through it.

    Good argument for legalisation then, wouldn't you say?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,391 ✭✭✭✭mikom


    ,all on their iphones listening to pop songs,and chewing gum,

    Why do you talk like someone from a black and white movie?

    Plenty of drug-taking and drinking at the Stone Roses gig on Thursday too, yet no arrests.

    So your point is?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭christmas2012


    Cannabis is a fairly harmless drug,and there is no social reprecussions from it,it doesnt make you aggressive or want to kill people..Some of the head shop stuff is supposed to make you real aggro,and mixing cocaine and alcohol with other drugs means youre off youre head.
    Gone are the days when smoking hash and popping a bit of e was supposed to make you happy out..

    Absolutely.

    This could have been so easily avoided by just not allowing anyone wearing tracksuits pants entry to the concert.

    Great night though

    haha...im just telling you as it was from someone who was actually there....40,000 plus people who went would say the same...one lunatic goes nutes with a knife and a few minor scuffles and suddenly the whole event is WW3...it would just be nice to see some acurate reporting in this country for once

    You must be the only person in the country who thinks this was normal behaviour at a concert.
    One person getting stabbed is terrible but nine is outrageous.

    I was at the concert. All the scum was from Dublin. I think concerts need to start acting a bit like nightclubs and refusing entry to people who look like they are out to cause trouble, regardless as to whether they have a ticket or not.

    You're either a promoter or a perpetrator? But one thing for sure, you're talking crap.

    In fairness the stone roses gig would attract a different kind of crowd or clientele,for a lot of pop,rave and rap it would be younger people or scobes all full of energy looking to pop someones head off or get as wrecked off their heads as much as possible.I notice with raves and pop and rap,its all amphetamines or head shop gear you never even heard of,and getting as wrecked as they can and packing down alocpops and vodka on top of it,i mean whats that a recipie for?
