They don't want to stop drug use because it employs too many police, solicitors, judges, prison wardens, social workers etc.

Alcohol is doing 10 times more damage to this country but we can not say that because of the money they make in tax

Fantastic debate between 4 almost pensioners about reforming drug and policing policy.

It's never really went away since the mass indulgence of the celtic tiger days.

The drugs problem will never be sorted in Ireland or america or any Western country. Its too addictive and there is too much money in it. You wouldnt be dealing drugs in Russia too handy you miight find yourself living out your life in Siberia if you were not in a box in the ground

I'm from up north and it is everywhere. And very young doing it too. Iv kids so it is a worry. Some people bury their heads. Tbh I don't think it can be stopped. Individual families' parents drilling into their children not to take it. But sadly the parents are doing it too. And not all kids have families.

The more fundamental question is, why do people need to consume cocaine. Address that question - as it is the fundamental question that needs to addressed.

If they made ecstacy like they did in the late 80s early 90s when I was taking it , then coke wouldn't be a problem now

We will need private prisons soon ,like they have in the states..One year stay will cost 25k .. constitutionally you wont have to pay...Come back again and you won't get a bed..??When your mates are laughing at you stepping over you in the new prisons..maybe then you will accept you have reached rock bottom... Politicians with oil addiction havnt solutions for a public witb similar dependency our country needs evangelisation.not legalisation.

Look allot of things need to change but take it from me Locking someone up for doing drugs doesn't stop them doing drugs in fact there's more drugs inside than out Also what's the flag just out of complete curiosity it looks kind of similar to the donestk flag, I'm fairly sure it's not but just interested
