There is much talk about making it safer for the self-imposed problems of addicts, who by their own conscious decision, in the face of all the information and warnings given by those who are not addicts (the vast majority), of the perils of heroin and amphetamines. But there is no talk of stopping and eliminating the evil drug pushers who are making our Australian children, teenagers and young adults, victims. Just ask any parent of a drug addict. But there is talk of opening injecting rooms for the victims. Okay! If that is the case does it ease the burdens of the parents who have lost a son or daughter to the evil drug pusher? No! It has made the evil drug dealer-pusher sit back and gloat. If these evil drug dealers-pushers were insects in our homes we would ring for the exterminator and pay to have them got rid of so we can sleep at night and not worry about what is creeping under our couches and beds. These evil drug dealers and pushers take cruel advantage of the poor and needy, that is the way they make their living. Stamp out the drug dealers now in the name of humanity. - -- Adele Meredith, Mulwala - --- MAP posted-by: Larry Stevens
