Madness on the streets of Dublin

[KevinACE]

I visited Dublin today, on luas, three guys stood in front of me. I overheard one of the group who were all off their faces on drugs, mumble that he had just come back from a bad holiday, ie just released from prison. Harmless maybe at this time of the morning. After I got off, and walked the streets, I was coming out of the apartment block when I spotted a woman approaching me on the path who was also on drugs, walking briskly after someone in the distance. She was gripping the bottom half of a smashed bottle of wine. She wizzed by me , with this weapon in her hand, shouting out after some guy 'there he is guard '. I was in no position to defend myself if she decided to attack me.
These scenes stood out as very surreal. Whats going on with the junkies in Dublin. Maybe its time we seriously though about decriminalisation of drugs. It has worked in Portugal.

Hi Tom, whats the answer? Alcohol is abused all over the world. But the city shoud not be over-run with these junkies. They should have a secure place to sober up, or shoot up safely, away from the general public.

Lets not be discriminating against Dublin . This behavior happens in many cities around Ireland .
I say bring back public flogging purely for the entertainment value

They do that flogging themselves already, but it would be entertaining with a drink and a meal to go with it.

I'm sorry guys , but what moronic contributions !!! (and I apologize to Tom , and to Tom ...)

Prohibition ! What the heck good does it do !? What the heck good has it ever done !?


Taxation. Regulation. Providing safe and secure environment and product !

Alcos will be Alcos regardless if it's legal or not.

Addiction is an affliction , whatever guise it may come in : weed , cocaine , meth , heroin , alcohol , nicotine !!

Legalize , regulate !!


This'd be my very humble opinion x

Beat addiction to " punting"

Take up methods.
