throbber Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I dont know who is to blame but it's really sad. What is wrong with scottish people that makes us booze take drugs or overeat?No easy answer to that, people trying to blame the Tories is understandable but you can’t just say “I’ve lost my job so as a direct, unavoidable consequence I must turn to hard drugs”. People are responsible for their own actions and it’s not really an excuse. That said if everyone around you is taking drugs then it’s easy to follow suit, also if you are a young person growing up watching adults around you hooked on drugs then what chance have you got really? Also, the amount of drugs that come into Scotland is a major factor. I’m not sure how bad it is now but a lot of the heroin and cocaine that got smuggled into Europe came into Scotland in towns like Wick and Thurso on boats. Look at the other counties topping the list for drug deaths - all of Scandinavia, Ireland and then Lithuania and Estonia. Do you think that’s a coincidence that al these counties are in the North Atlantic with big fishing industries where drugs can be smuggled in to the rest of Europe? Also they all suffer from pish weather which can’t be overlooked either.Our attitude to getting steaming in Scotland is nothing short of a disgrace, even if recreational drugs isn’t the biggest killer they are still everywhere and about 80% of people that are roughly my age that I know have taken class A’s before and many of them still do on a regular basis. Even in the general nonsense forum right now there is a thread about posting about how cunted you are, which I haven’t ventured into yet, and then dindeleux posting about how much MDMA he took once as if he deserves some sort badge of honour for it. Both of these are common examples of how we view drug and alcohol consumption in this country so it’s no wonder we have found ourselves where we are with these recent stats. Basically we are fucked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not f**ked, just nearing the point where those in charge need to get their fucking fingers out instead of looking at everything from a £'s shillings and pence stance without looking at the whole picture.

Time to step away for a bit before you get emptied, have never seen you post with such vitriol so clearly something about this pisses you off.

ICTJohnboy Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Sorry for going a wee bit off topic. I've decided to treat myself to a new pair of reading glasses today. When I first glanced at the topic title yesterday, I thought it said : Dug deaths in Scotland hit record high. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There cannot be a single human being who has not been made fully aware of the dangers of illegal drugs. Every single person knows organised criminal cartels control, manufacture and distribute these things, that no testing has been done on them and that all manner of crap gets added to everything to bulk them out. And yet millions of people make the decision to use them anyway and the consequence is misery for everyone who lives with and around them in terms of crime rates etc as they steal to feed their habits. Why should caring about others be an exclusively one-way street? This "all right Jack" nonsense seems to be the go-to phrase to use these days. It's ridiculous. Of course, you've never made a bad decision in your life so it's fine for you to sit on your high horse here and scowl at the big bad junkies. People do silly things, people get in with the wrong crowd or can feel pressured into it, people have incredibly horrible things happen throughout their lives that drives them to this stuff. But naw, lets vote to hang them all because you've managed to keep on the right side of things. 21 hours ago, oaksoft said: Really? It's a better option in every respect to take illegal drugs which fund organised crime cartels, which haven't been rigorously safety tested or manufactured under a safety-controlled environment? You don't know what manner of shit you are getting mixed in with those drugs. Alcohol is strictly controlled and regulated in this country. I reckon that is a better option. Seriously, do they not teach this basic stuff to kids at school anymore? Weed is better for people in just about every imaginable way. Teach kids? You've got to be kidding. For decades the government and media has been pushing propaganda on weed, how can you educate folk on it when the party line is so drastically out of touch? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough of this nonsense. People choose to take this stuff. They are responsible for that and the consequences. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
