in an ideal world if we are strict on drugs outside of prison we would be same inside.
cant hypothisise about sending all druggies to prison but then refuse to beleive prisons would change from how they are currently.
You are sending a convicted drug user to a place that is full of drugs. Then once they come out they can't get a job because they have a criminal record. You do know reoffending is a thing right? and the rates are huge in this country.

YUP,our govt too weak to punish me
luckily i quit
but if i hadnt time in prison would have made me shape up!
Point of order. They are not murdering people, its state policy, they are eradicating drug dealers.Anyway the idea that harsher punishments stop people doing something is nonsense. In the Philippines now they're murdering drug users and nothing has changed. The only proven way to reduce the harmful effects of drugs on society is to decriminalise them and treat it as a public health issue.
Executing people without trial is murderPoint of order. They are not murdering people, its state policy, they are eradicating drug dealers.
Not if the state deems it legal, which in the Philippines is the case.Executing people without trial is murder
Under international law it's extrajudicial killing and very illegal. I wouldn't expect a reasoned argument about this from somebody who is happy to live in a wahabist state that stones people to death anyway.Not if the state deems it legal, which in the Philippines is the case.

I can't believe you are linking having a joint with terrorismThe legalisation of drugs is ill advised for numerous reasons.
The argument deployed that it harms only the individual concerned is not correct. There is growing evidence of long term use having significant impacts on mental health. It's not co-incidence that many terrorist activities are done by losers with a history of cannabis usage.
Professor Nutt tried to lessen its danger by combine health and social economic factors on his scale. Proposterous in itself but more so when he didn't factor an inevitable increase legalisation would have. When confronted he admitted the mental health issue but brushed it off and talked about horse riding.
The alcohol and tobacco industries are well established globally and cannot be stopped. That's no argument to legalise a substance that also can damage health and create social nuisance.
The argument regarding drugs in prison is equally absurd. The system is failed at that point and the failure should be addressed.
Probably the most ridiculous thing on here is the argument you can break laws you don't like. The country has a democratic voice and law changing is made through political means.
To suggest otherwise promotes anarchy. Look at the cleric preacher who is Mr Livingstones friend who believes force and discipline should be applied to women who disobey the males in the family. If he and his followers believe our laws are not representing his belief is he ok to exert discipline?
Clearly not as the law protects individuals. So break a law get punished. Look to change go to the ballot box.

Showing your ignorance again I see.
Don’t even know where to start with this shitshow of a post.
You’d have made a cracking Nazi guard is all I’d say.
Your natural environment is Saudi Arabia !!!gambling is another one
I can gamble. Sometimes i get a thrill from it. Some othrt people csnt control.it. they lose everything. Hsrm thrmselves and their family
If gambling was made illegal i might be peeved but the country would be better off overall. No one NEEDS to gamble. Just like they dont NEED to drink alcohol.or.smoke weed. Stop asking for laws to be changed to make harmful things easier to get.
Think of the bigger picture. Vote for me. Ill sort this country that u have fucked up you potheads!

No one is saying that. Dont be so slowif gambling was made illegal no one would gamble, you're on fire tonight mate.
No one is saying that. Dont be so slow
It would minimise the amount of gambling tho
No one is saying all crime can be stopped. But i would rather stop harmful acts and have ppl go oit of thetr way to get it than legalise it and let people harm Themselves whilst i pride myself on them not breaking laws to get hold it
Considering this thread is about illegal assault at a football ground, I assume you also think we should ban live matches?
Even an attempt at a clever analogy is appallingly bad.
That would be great in some imaginary candy land where that actually happens, but the evidence isn't on your side. A great example to look at is prohibition of alcohol. We've had it legal, illegal, then legal again and it provides some excellent data points.
What happened under prohibition?
- Organised crime thrived
- Quality control went out the window and harm from the drug massively increased
- Prices went up dragging addicts into destitution
- People drank anyway
Sound familiar?
Alcohol use is on the decline without it being banned, cigarette use is on the decline without a ban, education works where legislation doesn't.
Also: you ain't my Dad. It isn't your job to decide what is and isn't good for me. I think your religion is harmful to both you and society, but I shouldn't have the ability to stop you doing it unless it infringes on someone else's rights. That's basic liberal democracy.
Took you fucking ages, and that was the best you could come up with?
Go on, give it another go.
I love it when someone spits out hatred and abuse and ends their statement with liberal democracy. What is liberal democracy out of interest as opposed to just democracy?
With respect I've laid out my case in some detail. It's you who is not capable of an ariticulated response.
Shmee you call it candyland bur i only want to talk about how i would want it and enforce it.
I dont deny that without beong heavyhanded it probbaly wouldnt work
I do not want us to be saudi arabia but prople nees to be punished to learn lessons and serve as a leason for others too sometimes
This cointry is going downhil because girls having kids as teens and asbo kids killing people etc. All because we live in a world where 'ahhh its ok' and 'ahhh i wanna do drugs leave me alone im not hurting anyone' kinda mentality
Where's the hatred and abuse, you cock gobbler?
I don't teach any more, but as you're having so much of an issue with understanding basic words, I'll give you this one for free:
Liberal democracy: a democratic system of government in which individual rights and freedoms are officially recognized and protected, and the exercise of political power is limited by the rule of law.
Democracy: a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives.
I just said i dont want it to be like saudi arabia..not asking for hands to be cut off. Not saying thag works even!Do you think it works in Saudi Arabia?
Also, teenage pregnancy has been falling for decades, where have you been? As has teenage drug use.
