Among many problems we face in today's society, drug abuse is probably high on the list if not tops. Its costing the country millions ,and more importantly in the derogation of human lives, costs are immeasurable.
While recent public outcry and demonstrations against drug-testing on animals is understandable and to be applauded, there would no issue if the availability of Psychoactive Substances (for example, party pills) was withdrawn.
How any self-respecting politician, who is supposed to be principaled and in parliament to stand for the welfare and good of people, could support this bill in any form is unbelievable. The opportunity is there to do something about it. We need to lobby the Goverment for an immediate law change. Also, protestors might consider changing their placcards to highlight the source of the problem.
