HEROIN ROOMS WRONG

I READ the article written by Derryn Hinch with much agreement to what he
was saying on the so-called safe injecting rooms.

My son, 12, also read it and shook his head in disbelief.

His comment was: "Surely Mum, they can't really be serious about making
these rooms legal.

"Heroin is an illegal drug.

"The Government are really contradicting themselves aren't they".

After his comment I thought it was pathetically sad that we have a
government that has less intelligence and morals than a 12-year-old boy.

Maybe a student body would be more beneficial to our country than a
parliament.
