I have a...friend who is in his mid 40's, has a family, good well paid job nice house, car and all the rest of it.
Fom the outside he looks like any "normal" fella...but for the last 30 years he has been a recreational drug user, be it weed, acid, e's or coke.
As he's an educated bloke he can make his own decisions about what risks he takes after looking into all the pro's and con's.
Therefore, some weekends he'll do a gram of coke (poor quality though these days he says, cut with pro plus!)..or he'll do a few e's.
He's never been in trouble with the Police, when he was younger he got into all kind of scrapes while bladdered, got fed up of feeling dreadful the day after, fed up of puking up while the room was spinning and thought, what's the alternatives?..
Now, he's NOT a druggie. Someone who takes crack or heroin IS a druggie, the are usually the un educated ones who don't think about what they are doing and don't look into the pit falls of addiction and everything else that surrounds it.
He goes to music festivals and has a really great time with like minded people of all ages, and has never seen any trouble...Unlike gigs or footy matches where he has seen loads of mither and drink has played the part in this.
Ask any copper who they would rather deal with, a middle aged fella who has smoked a couple of joints, his mrs who has just had a great time after a crackin mitsubishi or his brother who can't stop talking about the good ol' days after a good line of sniff up his hooter...Or the same age people after a few cans of Stella, a bottle of white lightnin or a few too many whiskies...Id be suprised if its any of the latter.
civil servants, lawyers, Policemen, teachers and doctors who do the same things as he does, these are in his circle of friends and none cause any trouble to anyone else...They even have dinner parties where these drugs are freely available.
My point is, its all down to the individuals who takes whatver..no one else.
