Should heroin be given on the NHS?

[Sam Slater]

Ok both drugs are legal (lets say...)

So in your opinion, is legalised heroin 'safer/just as safe as' alcohol on an almost national scale, taken regularly?

If you had a daughter just turning 18, would you feel better that she's out with friends for her first drinks to celebrate her birthday, or her first 'shoot up' with friends for the same reason?

Also would you prefer your 14 year old son to sneak off for a tipple of cider with his mates while acting a prat at the local Threshers, or him sneaking off to the park for crystal meth?

Just some simple answers to two simple questions mate. For the record I'd feel safer with these 'hypothetical' kiddies tinkering with alcohol.

I hope youre trying to be sarcastic.

The funny thing is here warren is that im voicing my opinion from my everyday experience working with people like this so i dont have much time for the academic argument based on statisitics and what ifs.

im feeling this is going to be going around in ever decreasing circles, i would like to think that there could be a highly crafted argument that would presuade all who read it to the writers point of view but thats not going to happen so i shall take my leave.

Youre right im sorry i'll go craw back under the stone where i came from.
