Each time that there is a drug discussion happenning in the media.........generally following a footballer being busted, ie Bens Cousin or Andrews John, our local ABC radio does a few interesting interviews and the host......... Virginia Trioli has consistently raised the point with those she is interviewing that many many Australians take the view that maybe they will have a nice wine this weekend or maybe they will buy a few pills.
Often her interviewees subscribe to the........"They are NOT recreational" but instead....... "they are illegal or legal" description which is something that many are trying to force us to change the way we view drugs.
Trioli promotes the fact that despite what drug bashers may like to think, the fact is that many Aussies simply do see them as recreational and that maybe its well and truly overdue that we start to open up about this and maybe look at legalising some recreational drugs.
What are your thoughts?
Do you think that Aussies tend to view many drugs as simply recreational?
Is it time for the laws to catch up with the times or is legalisation going to open a whole pandoras box of problems.
Any other ideas?
