I heard a snippet on the radio this morning about having heroin injecting rooms back the agenda for some govco. (wasnt paying that much attention) and it got me thinking...
To possess heroin is to break the law, yet there are locations available (free) for them to comfortably break the law. Spinning your tyres on the street is illegal under the "hoon laws" but it is near on impossible to organise for a bunch of mates to get out to a skidpan to have at it and just let rip. At best we have occasional track (circuit) days at our cost, or friday night drag racing, again at our cost. (You'll have to excuse the use of the word hoon here, I hate the name now as it has been used to tar all car enthusiats, but we know the real meaning.) Do 'hoons' go round robbing people of their hard earned goods to fuel their habit? Do you cause physical harm to your body every time you spin your tyres? Does doing a burnout alter your mental state, and potentially require resusitation? Like I said it got me thinking and got me pretty annoyed. How about we get some perspective in the world? |
