    I don't see what the crack is with her.

    Apparently she was doing a bit of research for a new movie she was going to appear in.

    She's a methadone actress

    I think yet more proof that drugs need to be decriminalised.

    Why?

    Decriminalising them would not have prevented her death would it so in this particular case why bother?

    Being a criminal act is the reason why drugs are cut with substances that kill.
    Its very minimal that someone dies of a true overdose (I.E) they took too much for the body to handle which then shuts down and you die. Its almost always a bad mix.

    Well I don't really hold junkies with the highest regard.

    Totally agree, she chose that lifestyle so don't expect me to be bothered that she died. Sad for her family and friends none the less.

    you're both c-unts. :lol:

    I'm not questioning what you say but if it was 'pure' heroin are you saying that virtually no amount of it would kill?

    Clearly it would. http://www.erowid.org will have the specific ld50 doses for almost every conceivable recreational drug.

    I assume he means the inability to gauge the strength of the dose leads to death. It is ridiculous that drugs are still illegal but that is because USA decided that it should be so...

    u r right and wrong, decrim and then the state would have to provide the drugs, criminals would always cut the product to make more money, the celebs would nt want to be "seen" to be addicts, so where would they buy drugs?
    I admit that decrim would probably take away the attraction to new users though.

    what annoyed me about this lass was all the stuff saying what a fantastic mum etc etc when it was likely she died of substance abuse, healthy 25yo's rarely just drop dead, great mum? load of rubbish, she knew what her own mums death did to her and has now visited that on her kids, to me she is just another (dead) selfish spoilt brat

    People who want to legalise drugs crack me up. It is usually followed by the assertion that alcohol is more harmful.
    Ask yourselves this. Which would you prefer your son to ask?

    Fancy a pint dad?
    Fancy a rock of crack?

    Drugs are generally illegal as they dont have any social or economic benefit. People off their tits on crack are not the most productive and apparently it is quite addictive. So if hard drugs were legal and we get fags and booze levels of tax from the drugs it becomes a moral argument.

    Luckily criminalising a whole load of drugs has made them really difficult to obtain so nobody bothers.

    No but each person would know how many mg to inject, and since the product would be of the same concentration it removes another source of harm as well as no criminal interaction, clean needles etc. Many people can lead useful lives whilst addicted to opiates (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Stewart_Halsted) I don't suppose Sherlock Holmes counts.

    The legalisation of class A drugs would be like opening Pandora's box (behave Arran). It is well know that cannabis is a gateway drug, therefore to have open access to harder substances could lead to epidemic levels of addiction.

    As we have already seen in the last 20-30 years with the increase in confectionery and fast food, which when I was a kid were a treat but are now for many the norm. Whilst I am not comparing, the mere fact that drugs are illegal is a barrier to their use for the majority.

    They are already legalising cannabis in Colorado and no doubt this will extend to other states and countries. I heard that haribo are a gateway to Ben&Jerry's.

    All criminalisation has done is provide organised crime with a great product line. I would love to hear a description of how the war on drugs has improved the lives of people around the world, especially along the Mexican-US border. I would highly recommend this short video http://www.cultivatedwit.com/projects/mexican-drug-cartels-video/

    One more for the c*nt step, I didn't know, didn't care if she was dead or alive, just another dead smack head.

    There are plenty more people who die everyday who are truly more worthy yet will pass without a single thought from anyone.

    Having watched the video, I fail to see how the UK abolishing any drug control and increasing the cartels customer base would have anything but a beneficial effect on their business model.

    I know it will probably label me as chief kunt on the step, but I would be more interested in a video advocating the napalming of the bastards that supply this sh1t and peddle misery.
