I guess having decent condoms will reduce the risk of them splitting in the stomach on the way to Bali

Re: Free Condoms for Drug Users
The shooting gallery in Kings X Sydney has been running for a number of years now. It means users are less likely to OD and if they do they are in safe hands. The effect has been less deaths, lower HIV rates and the area is safer without OD ers passed out on the streets.
The low HIV rates mean a saving to taxpayers.

And thats just the financial saving.

On a side note, it's good to see that Pete Doherty has finally been put away. Not for very long but better than nothing I guess.

Hopefully some one will loose the key ....
Or simply forget to release him.

I posted about that on Facebook just seconds ago. Remind me, which century is this?

Re: Free Condoms for Drug Users
I posted it on my Facebook too, despite my reservations. I'm always a little put off by the mob mentality of these situations and joining a cause despite having different reasons. The promoters of this ad campaign have taken this as an attack on homosexuality, which I have no doubt it is. The more sinister side to it though, in my opinion is the campaign against safe sex and also worryingly safe drug use.

Re: Free Condoms for Drug Users
That's good news, although it shouldn't have happened in the first place.
