Unless you can demonstrate the harm it would cause you, any arguments about you being protected are by definition invalid.

With regard to the latter, if you are concerned about that perhaps you should be advocating eugenics.

Other people shooting up class A drugs doesn't harm me personally. Neither does money laundering or car ringing. Lets make all those things legal too then, huh?

If class A drugs were legalised and available through controlled outlets like off licences then yes, I do believe they should be legalised. It is the choice of the individual whether they want to do them or not.

As for your other two examples, money laundering and car ringing, neither of these are victimless crimes in the same was as consensual incest, so I fail to see what relevance they have to this point?

Of course I'm unintelligent and can't possibly know my own mind.I'm inclined to knee jerk reactions based on being 'brainwashed' by the government and can't possibly read between the lines or make up my own mind.

I don`t believe that any of us are devoid of making such knee-jerk reactions on particular issues, and I do believe that they are the result of how we have been programmed to react by societal pressures. My first reaction to this story is one of "ewww", not for any absolute reason, but because I am a product of society. However, you need to be able to step back and look at things from an entirely objective viewpoint.

OK we're starting to go here

You would be able to see if you pulled your head out of your pompous backside.

Yeah, because then, instead of kids asking adults to get them a bottle of cider they can insist on a couple of grams of scag! You're another childless person right?

Okay thread reopened - Please keep to the topic and no more flame wars.

Don't worry I have no intention of contributing to this thread anymore.It's given me far more trouble than it's worth. Frankly I'm sick of being told my opinions are pointless because I can't think for myself and that I prevent others from having any opinions.

Incog,

This thread got very heated, but - for what its worth - I feel that all opinions are valid, and I can see no way in which you are preventing others from having opinions.

Hopefully the thread will resume without the constant sniping that caused the suspension, but if not - remember that this is getting into emotive issues, and people are liable to put down as facts, things that are in fact opinions or beliefs.

Maybe its time for a

I have already made my position clear, and will be watching the thread with interest

But the real problem here is the person that concedes to the request of the children, not the fact that a product is on sale or not. The fact that I do not have children does not enter in to it, and I can tell you, if I did have children there are class A drugs that I would be happier them doing than alcohol.

There is difference between saying that you cannot think for yourself and saying that your thinking is a product of programming by society, which is what I said not just of you but of everyone else. The reactions being displayed in this thread are clearly the result of this programming, their is nothing intrinsically disgusting about what has happened here, and in other cultures and at other times it has been perfectly acceptable.

Wonderful, you get a red rep for being "off topic" when the post that earned the rep was a direct reply to one that already had been posted. I`m amazed at how many vigilante mods we have on this board these days.

Sorry, but if you think that having sex with your mum/dad is ok, you need psychiatric help, it appears that most people are able to differentiate between right and wrong, normal and sick/twisted, you and your buddy *graham* however prefer to live outside that normality justifying such actions with your favourite word of the week "knee jerk".
