serena in 2 close sets for me. Bit too much experience and mental strength on the day. Strong head to head history and a strong home crowd. 1.25 looks ok enough for me to have a lump and leave |

Am watching Nothing to declare on Sky, a woman just got 9 months for smuggling £50,000 of hash through an airport, no wonder people try it, 9 months ... pathetic

By:

By:
hmmm, why don't customs get people to smuggle tons of it, so they get it off the drug gangs ... wouldn't that be a good idea to get rid of it?

I'm still waiting for it to be decriminalised in the UK. Can't be too long.
|
|
By:
id give it 15 years before its legal here. main reason its illegal is medical corporations

Brits won't even be able to smoke it in Amsterdam soon if memory serves me right. Though I bet the coffee shops have a way of getting round it.

By:
yeah from 2013 it is residents only, need a residence card. 'war on drugs' has never worked. never stopped the supply or the demand. even death penalty countries have both.

That's just going to half tourism overnight.

By:
in portugal they de criminalised all drugs and crime fell like 50% over 5 years, seems like thats the way forward, That wont happen in britain or the US for decades if at all
|
|
By:
far too many interests in keeping it the way it is
|
|
By:
look at Swiss attitude to heroin. Some heroin addicts have jobs over there and contribute to the country
|
|
By:
Despite plenty of media evidence to the contrary particularly when it was first criminalised, heroin is barely harmful anyway other than dependency.
|
|
By:
other than dependency... erm... yes, that kills you.
|
|
By:
yes there was the case of the dr who was a senior advisor to the NHS for years prescribing himself diamorphine (pure heroin) and doing a fine job
|
|
By:
it's crazy that in this day and age where the public have access to more information than ever before that the majority of people still believe the "reefer madness" crap they push.

By:
there are people in the US that have been in prison for like 30 years for dealing a tiny bit of weed to make ends meat while bankers get million dollar bonuses for what essentially amounts to treason

By:
For one, I don't think heroin would actually be a prescribed drug if it killed you.
|
|
By:
it's not the heroin nor the addiction that kills heroin users
it is the dirty needles and needle sharing, poverty, poor nutrition, poor hygiene, contaminated supplies an addict receiving clean doses of the pure drug could live quite happily for many years in fact many doctors have self administered in the past and maintained normal life |

|
By:
although it does **** a lot of people up when mixed with other prescription drugs, the US has a huge problem with this
|
|
By:
take enough of any drug and it will probably kill you
alcohol for one and pure nicotine is lethal |
|
By:
legally these are 'controlled substances'. But who is in control of them? Precisely the last people in society that should be in control of them. There will always be a demand and consequently a supply. 50 years of 'war on drugs' has stopped neither. Acknowledge that instead of wasting billions trying to stop it. The state should treat addicts as victims and put an arm around their shoulders. It should
|
|
By:
0 reported deaths EVER
|
|
By:
state should take over the supply and administer it safely and responsibly
|
|
By:
unfortunately only a few countries are that advanced
|
|
By:
In a roundabout way, the state does do that through various drug services.
|
|
By:
However such measures are more a sticking plaster rather than a cure.
|
|
By:
only a few countries are not so corrupt. too many vested interests in keeping the status quo. Police, doctors, lawyers, prison industry all cream billions from the current system
