Fair play to them, enjoying their last years with a song and a pint.

......sounds like she's the one that doesn't know anything about genetics.....

Callan57

They cherish their children! Sure they do, that's why they have them out begging on the streets in all weathers. :rolleyes:

Where are the gardai????????????????????

EmptyTree

O grand, yes, lovely, I'd be only too delighted to have one of those injecting centres beside my house. Happy to have all those drug addicts coming to my street, sure who wouldn't want that??

neris

love to hear MLOD trying to describe this drug segment. Sounds rough and harsh

Lapin

I've heard it all now.

Junkies complaining about about not having clean alleyways in the centre of Dublin to shoot up because the place is littered with dirty needles.

Was just going to say the same thing. Your man all angry saying look at where we have to inject, its filthy, look at the needles, I was wondering how many of the needles were his. And now the woman injecting in the groin and she this her second injection of the day.

Such a shame.

Drugs is one of those things that can be fixed so easily.

However all the apparatus of the state works to perpetuate addiction.

eg: replacing illegal Heroin with a legal heroin (methadone)
readily available clean needles.

at no point is there anyone saying..... check into this place.... we will get you clean.... no drugs..... not even caffine.

I unwrap the bag, unveiling the brown, brown, substance............. browner than a very brown James Brown.
Next putting the citric on the pan, I shook out the contents, about a gram

Holding the lighter under the spoon, golden brown the colour will be soon,
The mixtures bubbling, it’s nearly ready........... hold on boys, get the syringe drawn back steady

Sliding the needle under the skin, I feel the pop I know it’s in.
*dribbles

I wonder if they will park one of this mobile vans outside Leinster house?

REALLY!!!!!! Neither of those interviewed seem to me to have any inclination or interest whatsoever in detox.
We haven't enough nurses & doctors to deal with the really ill people in A & E but we should send dorctors & nurses out at night to "teach people how to inject" ILLEGAL drugs. Get a grip :mad:

Lapin

The Portuguese response seems very enlightened but its not a solution. It only prolongs the problem of drug taking in city centre.

A much cheaper and easier way would be to flood the market with a bad batch of lethal heroin.

I like the way Sean cut yer one off who was just waffling for the sake of waffling.

i know but couldnt have imagined pat telling someone to stall the ball

Lapin

Grainne certainly didn't forget to take her own tablets this morning.

She mentioned a couple of times that the poor junkies are hungry and walk the streets at night with no food in their bellies.

Surely if you can afford to buy heroin you can spare the price of a sandwich. You can buy a hot chicken roll in Centra for €3 FFS.

Yes... it can be as easy as society / the government want it to be.
and I wasn't saying giving those people a choice about detox either.

first step is to stop the heroin enabler that is methadone.
then and only then can people get clean.

it just needs some money to be spent on it.
at the moment the government spend f*ck all on treatment.

First and foremost does it not require a desire on the part of the addict to get off the drug? You can bring a horse to water etc
The answer to every problem is to throw money we don't have at it.
