Psychoactive reaction to Product sold in 'pub shop'

So you were stupid enough to act the clown with drugs and ****ed yourself up. That doesn't make you a knowledge on them, it makes you one of those people who shouldn't be ****ing allowed near them...ever. Sensible people know their limits and can enjoy themselves, you obviously didn't and now have something against them for your own stupidity. Take a hike tbh.

lol the naiviety of some people is worrying. Relationships with all substances are dangerous .. even more so when the substances produce effects that is easy to develop a dependency on. There are a very small minority of people who maintain a 'healthy' or casual relationship with substances such as meph, mdma, coke etc. Its starts out fine .. something you do with your friends at the weekedn. then the buzz starts to fade so you do some more and this cycle carries on until you and your friends have a problem. The sad thing is none of you actually realise you do. Its the nature of theses substances that you end up 'chasing' the buzz. Tolerance develops quickly so if you want the same effects you have to do more. You are now making decisions on whether or not to take more when your decision making is impaired and you have less inhibitions. Before you know it you are regularly taking dangerous doses of a substance without any regard for your health because you feel you are fine. You then become easily conditioned to think that its ok to take large amounts because when you did it before nothing bad happened. What you dont know is that you are putting your body and mind through incredible stress every weekend .. very dangerous levels of stress.

People who have problems with substances including alcohol are generally in denial. they come up with all sorts of excuses and reasons why they dont .. they convince themselves that the drug isnt the problem. It takes a very long fall and usually a very disturbing event before people actually face up to their problems. Sometimes they cant face them and their life detiorates altogether. Drugs were the biggest waste of the best years of my life. Speak to any sane person who has been through the cycle and see if they think the same. You are a fool if you think that most people can control their substance taking. Look at a drug like alcohol that has been a part of human society for thousands of years .. we cant control that. How the hell are we supposed to control a drug that is much more potent and has just been introduced to our society. The same thing happens to us as when you introduce alcohol to cultures that never had it before .. think native american indiants and australian aboriginals.

So in response to your comment. They should be illegal and should be banned because the majority of people are like me .. Normal people who thought they could control it but cant. The funny thing is .. when I was using I was on your side with the same tired old arguments about why drugs should be legalized .. I feel like an idiot now when I think about it. Guess what that makes me think about you? Hindsight is a great thing .. Try and benefit from mine and people like me.

Just there on facebook I just got a captcha reading "Thc suffices"

Bloody weird :eek:

Save it and spread it. You could have a wee little internet meme on your hands :cool:.

I`ll post it up on a few of the cannabis groups on FB. I`m sure they`ll get a laugh from it!

People say alcohol's a drug...


it's not a drug, it's a drink.

OMG, you're right, all those headshop owners had to do was dissolve the drugs in water and they could not have been touched. How stupid have they all been with this "not for human consumption" and bathsalt mumbo jumbo.

The majority of people I know can. As I said before only an idiot does enough of them to regret it. It just appears like the majority of people you hang around with are idiots.

Whatever m8 .. I was at it for about 10 years. I met hundreds of people and was at hundreds of parties clubs etc. I'm not here trying to preach. I held down a job and put myself through a degree + postgrad. I wasnt some kind of down and out. I saw what years of that scene does to people including myself. You dont see it when you are in it .. but once you are out you cant believe that you wasted so much time/money on it. Dismiss me if you like .. just offering an alternative as someone who has lots of first hand exprerience.

I see that Homeopathic shops, Chinese Herbalist's, vitamin shops, coffee shops and a pub or 2 are still open. Has anyone got a phone number to contact Pat Carey.

Well, everything apart from the homeopathic shops... Homeopathy does bollox all.

I've seen many people become psycho while actively drinking alcohol

Oh look, an attempt at sarcasm. *tumbleweed*

A successful attempt, while said attempt at humour fell just short IMO

Its threads like this which highlight the gulf between the opinions of the population at large and boards users. The majority of Irish people are against the idea of head shops, as they see them as pedallers of drugs and drug related paraphernalia. The image they paint of themselves just doesn't help. Large displays of bongs and prominent displays of the cannabis leaf, hinders their acceptance among the more conservative in our society. If they hadn't been so ostentatious in their displays, with a seeming delight in exploiting loopholes they'd be still around today. Ireland is still a very conservative society, radical social change doesn't happen, it takes generations to change attitudes.

Boards and particularly AH has an interesting relationship with illegal substances. They will be the first to condemn the violent thugs with their guns rocket launchers and private armies willing to subvert the state. On the other hand they see nothing wrong with handing over their hard earned for some of Afghan finest to these same people. Interestingly they then complain its the laws that need to be changed rather than their behaviour.

Drug users never think its themselves that are the problem, and fundamentally that is the problem.

I love when people, unbestknown to themselves, end up arguing for the other side. What a great excuse for legalisation.

How is people wanting to get high a problem? You are going to have to be less ambiguous in your points. Are people wanting to get drunk at the weekend directly to blame for me getting the **** kicked out of me by four pissheads back in 2007?

Of course not. Stupid people were.

Speaking of arguing your point with hard facts, do you know for a fact that the majority of Irish people wanted these substances banned? Even without any media support and a piss poor promotional job, the anti prohibition marches this year had hundreds more marching in them than all the head shop protests combined.
