Max Power 6,556 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I've been a bit shocked to see how a small place with a sea border could become so under the influence of this evil drug. We seem to have little nests of users in the scummy flats people like 'you know who' rent out to DHSS cases in Christian Road, Harris Terrace, all around the Broadway area and various parts of town. It seems the DHSS drug people are swamped and help is hard to come by? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The only people I see getting done have about 10p or untraceable levels of weed on them which makes me believe drug dealing here is a multi level earnings scheme and it suits many people to pretend it isn’t happening. Just chuck a few bottom feeders inside from time to time and that does the trick in terms of public perception. Maybe you should tell them? I don’t think psychic powers come with the job. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It does make you wonder Willy, do the authorities just think that allowing the circulation of this crap keeps relative no hopers out of their brains and causing less trouble than if they were on drink? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirty Buggane 200 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 If the little cubicles in the chemists are anything to go by bushiness seems to be booming, and may I say there is a fair spread of the population dynamics. And not all of them are thieves and muggers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t think that I’m the only person who can see what’s going on. As for the above comment who would shop them if they suspect it’s a multi level scheme? You’ll just get a visit. Isn't this what crimestoppers anonymous is for? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gizo 1,878 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 There is no drug problem on this island, that’s why they stopped funding for rehab. Nothing to see here. Would love to know what they spend on methadone over here, the chemists are full every day with smack heads. Also, top top tune by the Velvet Underground 4 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
