The cost of 'E's.
Following on from the discussion the other day on the cost of 'E's.
Here is an interesting item in the news:
http://www.news.com.au/common/story_...55E421,00.html
This is an interesting statement from the article:
"If you have a seizure this big that's been caught, I would think these sorts of huge amounts of substances would be coming in fairly regularly," he said."
Party Time :scared:

Currently there is loads of very high quality heroin in Perth. My pal, a professor in drugs education told me.

Luckily, my own personal 'poison' is the Vodka - perfectly legal and very easy to get hold of, thank God!

Currently North Korea is creating markets in Australia for their state sponsored heroin and methamphetamine.
The more heroin and the cheaper it is, the more people are going to end up using it.

Re: The cost of 'E's.
Ive never been able to work out why people overseas think australia has less drugs or is drug free, totally stuffed.
Ask any aussie in London about the drugs back home, most will tell you. Grew up here even then everyone smoked (pot) a lot of it home grown, it might surprise some just how acceptable it is here. Most kids know how to get what they want if they want it by end of highschool. 50% of aussies smoke the weed, no idea how many take stronger stuff, but one in 5 drivers is supposed to be under the infuluence of drugs. Imports of drugs are coming in for a reason, people use them, and if big a big import gets stopped the old "home factories' go into over production and you end up with a heap of dead people a few weeks later.
Drugs in Australia are as common as barbeques.

Re: The cost of 'E's.
Someone I know works as a 'tradey' with lots of 'youngsters'(16-22 mostly). He tells me all they constantly talk about (in breaks etc) is what kind of drugs they tried on the weekend, and will try again etc etc etc. He literally said they constantly and nearly only talk about drugs!
I did year 8 and 9 here in WA (95/96). Back then there was a lot of dope smoking going on (like 75% of the class...).
Still is now.
Most of have grown out of it now though
One (male) friend, of 21 yo still smokes occasionally, but I'm not to worried about that, it's not a regular thing.
One of my exclassmates is rumoured to have an expensive cocaine addiction, but I personally think that is just a rumour.
Haven't noticed any drug taking here myself, though I'm not actually someone who's very observant of what's going on around me!!
I have noticed plenty of needle boxes in various toilets around the place(trainstation, mall in CBD, Subiaco etc etc)

I know a few/lot(?) of the parents grew themselves.
I remember one 'joke' was that someone's weed plant was stolen, but they couldn't really go and report it, hey?
Oh, and it 'my' case it was beginning of high school!! Though didn't realise so many of my classmates smoked/had tried it till just before I left, halfway year 9.
I think I left just in time, before maybe being sucked in my peer pressure(not by my good friends, but maybe some of the others I hung out with sometimes..)
In Holland I used the excuse that I'd already tried it in Oz, to get out of the peer pressure!!(this was normal smoking btw) he he. Was still hard though. Had to convince them I smoked in Oz, and had now given up, whereas I didn't know much about smoking at all, so I wonder if I came across ligit... Still worked though. I'm glad I never started, cos I have quite and addictive personality I think (that's why I'm on here, when I'm supposed to be working... right off I go..)

Re: The cost of 'E's.
Sadly, drug taking isn't new, either. My dad, now in his 80s, is always telling me that he & his mates used to smoke dope at Art School when he was about 14. (Mind you, *Art* School....!!)
They also did naughty things with girls, too! Shock horror! :scared:

“One in five drivers under the age of 25 (19 per cent) has driven after taking recreational drugs"

Wonder how many didnt admit it
Anyway the good news is 86% of queenslanders agree there should be random drug testing and NSW plans to introduce drug testing next year with a saliva test, lets hope all other states follow soon. That would make the roads a lot safer than the police spending their time hiding behind wheelie bins booking those doing 3klm an hour over the limit.
