My Missus gave me one of her missives the other night and it went like this...


If the hospital maternity is moved from the hartlepool hospital then there will be no more hartlipudlians.......

Apart from the miniscule number of home births the extinction of a race will be on the cards....

She's right as well is my missus.

I bet a lot of people haven't thought of that

Sigh, there's always one.

Well where do you want to be from then?? Where would you live that you could say you were proud of because to be honest, it's chewy everywhere on a weekend, not just Hartlepool. There's smackheads, and more worryingly, crack heads everywhere now. There's dickhead councillors everywhere fucking up your life and making you have 9 bins.

It's not Hartlepool, it's the whole of the country. You made it, along with the rest of the electorate, now you have to live with it. Nero syndrome.

Politics is popular this weekend innit?? :laugh: :laugh:

where are all these smackheads?

there's less of it here than just about every other british town i've lived in / been to. I can't remember the last time I had any trouble with drug addicts in the town - it's always young lads in them daft stripey sweaters looking for a ruck, and i don't know of any of them being on smack.

maybe people just see skinny doyles chewing people and automatically assume it must be drugs that's doing it, rather than bad parenting, bad education and the bad socio-economic scenario they find themselves in. Incidentally when people do get into hard drugs, it's often these factors that lead to drug addiction.

Ah.

But is it not the case that they have no money cos they dont want a job?


obviously, but they don't want a job cos they've got no motivation, skills, or experience and will most likely be crap at any job they try. this is the situation a lot of drug addicts find themselves in and it's caused by a variety of factors.

There is a fair chance if some one is buying bread rather then smack, they arent going to have to smash you car window, door window, or nana in the face to feed their habit, are they??

yeah, fair enough.

give them it free then. it's their choice if they want to become zombies. chances are they'll stay in a lot more if they got it free, and they'll bother us less and wouldn't clutter up our town.

undercut the dealers and they'll go out of business. no dealers = less youngster/dealer interaction, so fewer new addicts, and within a generation or two there would be a great deal fewer druggies.

i think that's the problem solved, and it's pretty much the only way to do it. other than the commonly suggested strategies such as 'put rat poison in the drugs' or 'just kill them all with a flamethrower'

They don't have anti-social behaviour. They are a very moralistic race of people and have great self pride. They crack down on crime, not by filling the jails with minor offenders, non-payers etc etc but by being extremely hard on robbery, rape, drug dealing, corruption, organised crime and murder. Very hard. Each can carry the death penalty, life means not less than twenty.

The lairy kids here think it's daring to say 'Hello, how are you??' as they pass me and giggle with their mates. I say 'I'm fine thank you, how are you??' and they smile and blush. These are sixteen year old lads. There's about 25 of them on our estate who set up a volleyball net every night across the road end and play for hours by the streetlights.

There's little in the way of drink culture, although there's plenty of clubs and people do get drunk, spew etc. They just do it quietly and their mates make sure they spew in the toilet. You don't see drugs at all. A wild night out is to rent a karaoke suite in one of the clubs and drink beer and sing horribly to your mates. I've seen ONE kick off here and that was two bewers in the queue at the year end sales.

...nothings 'free'


...except all the other drugs and services that the NHS gives out, often to people with self-inflicted chronic problems like mentalism or smoker's cough. charge them a prescription fee if you want, as long as the dealers are undercut.

trust me, the majority of druggies, if given the choice of not having to go out theiving 7 days a week, running the risk of arrest and violence, would snap your hand off. There's nowt they want more than to sit in a warm house with a nice bag of drugs. they steal through desperation and the drugs cause the desperation. You're not going to be that desperate to have a massive telly or anything, particularly if you're on smack.

i'd have no problem with it - the cost would pale into insignificance when compared to money lost through managerial inefficiency in the public sector, unnecessary military spending, etc, etc... a small price to pay for greater security and gradual reduction in new druggies.

No, it is the case that they have spent all their money on drugs. That is what drug addicts commonly do. A common misconception is that all drug addicts fit the stereotype. There are drug addicts in very very well paid jobs. It is the ones who can't afford their habit that cause all the chew.

And no, you cannot come here, you are too fat. You might be the thin end (and I use the term judiciously) of the Chinese obesity outbreak.

And the last thing we need is another 1.3bn fat bastar ds.

Sorry....but what a load of shite!!!! :evil: :grin:

So give them free drugs to sit on their arses all day whilst raking in benefit after benefit!!!! :roll:
If that happened they'd be a drug user explosion!!!! :evil:
I'd rather sit on my arse all day getting off my tits whilst getting paid for it rather than going to work!!!! :sweet:

It just wouldn't work!!!! :evil:

Just have a massive crack down on all dealers....the little shite hawks in the street who sell to fund their own habit to the big boys who do the importing!!!! :evil:
A straight 20 years when caught would sort them all out....from the top to the bottom!!!! :evil: :grin:

if you hadn't noticed, there's been a war on drugs for 80-odd years, costing billions, yet drug use has never been so prevalent. The supply can never be disrupted for long, as the demand simply does not go away.

It's simple economics - when the supply is cut, demand inevitably exceeds supply so prices go up. When prices are high, there's more than enough people willing to get involved and make some cash. it's so competitive and that's why you get criminal gangs getting into it - they've got the resources and know how to get away with it.

The only solution is long term, and it's to play them at their own game. they'll have no answer to it cos they simply couldn't source the stuff cheaper than the government could. that is how you alter the supply chain - locking people up does nothing, it's like cutting the head off a monster which has the ability to grow a new head very quickly.

course we shouldn't, but the fact is the police are crap at catching dealers, and when they do, that can't stop new ones sprouting up. i'm all for the cops doing their job better, and sentences being harsher, but I don't see their performance improving rapidly, and calling for the death penalty is unrealistic.

we all want the same thing - the elimination of problem drug addicts from society.

The distinction is that yous are advocating a system that's proven over decades to have no effect, and I'm advocating a system, that in the limited instances it's been tried, has proved a huge success in terms of lowering acquisitive crime, reducing the number of new addicts, and monitoring current ones.

The police and other forces are generally good at catching the criminals, its the judical system that fails us

I think a hard line for the big time dealers, with siezing of all of their assets is the only way forward

:roll: :roll: What like in Switzerland (I think)!!!! :roll: :roll:

Where they allowed all the druggies to use a park and they wouldn't be locked up etc!!!!
The park was in a matter of days a no-go area for law abiding citizens with druggies coming from neighbouring countries to join in the 'Party In The Park'!!!! :roll:

It soon go knocked on the head!!!! :sweet:

I think the above is true....a search on Google will clarify whether it is or isn't!!!! :uhoh: :laugh: :grin:

A large sentence in a not so cosy prison whilst being given menial tasks to perform would be a deterrent!!!! :evil:

Couple of years ago, all the drug lords changed to importing fags and booze, the penalties are a lot cheaper and the profits are higher. There was a distinct dearth of drugs on the streets.

However this bit the exchequer in lost tax revenue. Cue draconian measures to eliminate lost fag and booze revenue. Ergo the return of plenty of drugs on the street.

The taliban banned the export or cultivation of the poppy in Afghanistan. They'd cut your balls of for it.. Cue George Bush and Tony's 'war on terror' the re-instatement of the warlords and a fresh crop of heroin.

All this could have been prevented but Blair and his Government are bounders. :roll: :roll:

of that there is no doubt.

news in today, would you believe it...

Quote:
Limit jail sentences, urges Reid

Judges and magistrates are being asked to jail only the most dangerous and persistent criminals.

The home secretary and law chiefs have sent them a letter as the number of inmates in England and Wales hovers around the jail capacity of 80,000.

'Failure of ministers'

Shadow Home Secretary David Davis said it was "outrageous" court sentences were being dictated by the prison capacity and not the offence committed.

"Yet again we see the public are being put at risk by the failure of ministers," he said.

"Offenders who should be sent to jail won't be, and all because the government failed to listen to our and other calls to address the lack of prison capacity over the last few years."

The Prison Officers Association called for an early release programme and more funding for jails.

"We've seen year-on-year cuts since Labour party came to power in investment in prisons. We have chronic situation as regards staffing," said association chairman Colin Moses.

He warned that prisons would be in the same situation in a year's time if no action was taken.

He is a useless ar$hole

The amount of lags who have slipped the net is amazing

Am I the only person who thinks prisoners SHOULD be deprived of somethings, otherwise whats the point of going inside?

I'm afraid Mr Groovy is right. Drugs is a product and as with all products you have a market. There is a demand and people will find suppliers. Accept that fact as true and you can only deal with the supply end because you cannot control the demand.

I do not advocate legalising drugs but you will never win a battle to stop people wanting them or wanting to supply them irrespective of the penalties.

The vast majority of the population have no interest in drugs so the UK is hardly likely to become a junkies paradise but if the government take over the supply of drugs via the NHS (maybe its a new funding strategy) then you remove the associated dangers of 'a bad batch'. You also take away much of the peripheral crime that is drug associated. Most prostitution, a fair percentage of burglary and a lot of muggings and robberies are carried out simply to fund a drug habit.

It's unpalatable but junkies exist so accept that and replace the illegal supply with official supply.

I never thought of that.

Just out of interest.

There was a speed camera on the duel carriageway just past the shell garage..........well about a hundred yards past the hospital on the on the way out of town.

I saw it as I was going the other way.

When I returned it was still there.

I drove in the outside lane at about 15mph..........with a queue of about 100 cars behind me.

You should have seen the jobsworths cnutting face when I waived at him when we all slowly passed him.

I hate those waankers


excellent SAFED driver, you could be certified like I'am, if you keep it up! :roll:

I should of quantified my statment, with catching big time drug runners, but with the running down of HMRC at ports and airports, the Afgan growing poppies again, it seems a piece of pish to get the stuff into the country

40+ hard larbour should stop anyone from drug running, but it wont and on and it goes....

A mate of mine knocked on my door a few weeks ago and said, 'have you seen your outside wall??'

So I goes and has a look and on the white wall in gold letters it said 'Ellis ov Worksop' and some other little bounders name in gold letters as e\well.

Anyway in the garden I found a gold spray can, so putting a plastic bag over my hand I carefully picked it up and took it to the police station. They said, oh it's damp, there won't be anything on it, or rathert the civilian behind the counter did. Anyway I persisted and bit of research revealed Ellis, a young lass of 14/15 living round the corner, daughter of a junkie and a known little toad. many many run ins with the police in her wrethched young life already.The SOCA came round and lifted a print off the can top.

So I calls the policeman who rang with the crime number and told him all this and he said, 'Ah but we have to prove it's that Ellis, that she did the spraying, that it's her print, etc etc etc.

WHY DO YOU FUC KING BOTHER THEN?? JUST GET US A CRIME NUMBER DISPENSER LIKE THEY HAVE FOR THE CHEESE COUNTER IN TESCO'S!!!!!!!!!!!

Utterly useless pile of shit. Unless you're in your car and your paperwork isn't in order...........

So we should take a softly softly aproach on dealers as well

Give your head a shake banghead


course we shouldn't, but the fact is the police are crap at catching dealers, and when they do, that can't stop new ones sprouting up. i'm all for the cops doing their job better, and sentences being harsher, but I don't see their performance improving rapidly, and calling for the death penalty is unrealistic.


A large sentence in a not so cosy prison whilst being given menial tasks to perform would be a deterrent!!!! :evil:


......for all druggies, 20 years in a cell measuring 7 ft long by 4ft wide by 7ft tall, dark grey walls a toilet and wash basin. no windows, no recreation, no media, no heating and meals fed through a slot in the door.


for pedo's and assorted pervs life to mean whole of life as above. If you know you will move from one box to another then you may as well top yourself and save the tax payers money...

No, In China they don't shite in their own backyard, there's no vandalism here. Or none that I've seen. The authorities paint the walls with welcome messages.

What amazes me is when a house alarm goes off and you phone 999 sayingthat your neighbour is away and their alarm is going off at 2 in the morning.
Their reply frequently is " have you seen anyone at the house? " Err like I'm going to go and look to see if a crazed freekin druggy with a knife is there??

"Oh well we don't respond to false alarms" How do you know it's a false alarm if you don't get off your fat arse and send someone to attend, after all the coppers are trained in beating shit out of scroats and I'm not....if I did I'd get a sentence...

and you wonder why police clear up rate in hartlepool is in very low 20's %

the same coppers who made it THEIR business to hoy that lad out of Pools last week for taking his shirt off celebrating a goal? Eeh, I never thought plod would do things like that, but at the same time not respond to a break-in where someone might actually get hurt, or even killed. I absolutely detest the ROLE they play in today's society. They are persecuting the people who can afford to pay fines - the police are used as just another means of stealth tax on everyday folks.
