Guys hanging out at Turnpike Lane Station
Anyone recognise the group of young guys who always seem to be hanging outside the betting shop by the Tesco at Turnpike Lane Station? Are they the same group who were ASBOed off Duckett's Common? I've seen the same guys just hanging there about half a dozen times over the last few weeks. Definitely not there to have a flutter on the GGs...

Sure, there's always bad apples but then you take away their license and shut the shop.

Testing kits will not detect the presence of some adulterants or establish purity. They only detect the presence of a substance. It still leaves room for other crap to be in 'that pure powder' that the kit can't screen for.
Somewhat safer but definitely not safe.

Before Thatcher banned it the government would supply long term patients (mostly war veterans I think) with Heroin. It was amazing, they could drive with it and everything. It went through their system and had no ill effects. The stuff junkies get is very adulterated.

My sister lived in Dubai for a while. She started trafficking alcohol within weeks. She was an otherwise squeaky clean law abiding Australian that had to live out there because the husband had work in the 60's but the moment the law fell against her life style, her life style fell against the law.
I wonder how many people here would be harbouring and smuggling and trading booze if their drug of choice got banned because a Muslim government managed to gain control of a future London assembly with unique powers?

I had that once, when I had my molars out. The doctors and nurses came around every 6 hours flicking a syringe excitedly extolling what a lucky young man I was and reminding me I could legally have another hit and how rare the stuff was and couldn't be found on the streets.
Mad experience. Doctors talking to me, but was in such a dream state, I had no desire to talk back. Getting wheeled around corridors, upside down, flying through the air ... I had to turn it down after the third or forth hit, started feeling sick. Then I was a serious grouch the next day.
Never had any desire, what-so-ever', to do it again happily.

Anyone interested in exploring how certain drugs and their users became demonised whilst others didn't, you really must watch this ...

It explains the American angle, which where are cousins go, we sadly have too often followed.
You can access Netflix free, with some help here ....

As someone who lives very close to the tube station and the common I'm often hassled by this group of people with "You want to buy something?" when pushing my 2 year old son along in his buggy. They find this hilarious and sometimes try to block our path as we worriedly try to hurry past. I'm quite disturbed that there's people on here who seem to find this funny and nothing to get upset about.
I recently saw this same group blocking the path and hassling a terrified and bewildered elderly man who must have been in his 80s outside Tescos - "Yes old man, you looking to buy something ? You want to get high ? HA HA HA HA !!!!"
I just can't understand that there's people on here who find this perfectly acceptable. These aren't kids either, they're young men, and to say these 10 or so people have no choice, or that it's right wing to not appreciate this group hassling people pushing children in buggies and 80 year old men is ridiculous.

They certainly enjoy terrifying people that's for sure, the old man they were hassling was clearly terrified and they found this hilarious, it was heartbreaking to watch and I wish I had the bottle to stand up to them but I'm ashamed to say I was too scared, especially as I have to walk past them with my son every day.
