Relaxing drug laws takes too much political capital for too little gain.

Irish politicians don't like risk.

Ireland has a huge pharma industry, they tend to support anti-drugs associations see for instance the wiki page for "Partnership for a drug free america"

Emigrate, let the oldies wonder why the economy went to shit after they refused to take our opinions into account.

Headshops: who'd be taking dirty spice and meph if there was 100% MDMA and dope dope around? Both safe if regulated.

This video would've been so much better if the person holding the camera:

a) Knew how to hold a camera steadily.

b) SHUT THE HELL UP WITH HIS RETARDED ACCENT!

and

c) Didn't keep hockin' up and spitting.

I was gonna favourite this cos its pretty funny but he ruined it.

Also what the fuck is up from 2:40 - 2:53 ??! Perverted much??

Seriously, you RUINED the whole thing!!

[horgandavid]

@BuiltByMachines im guessin ur not a guy....

[simondignam7]

@BuiltByMachines im guessing you suck :P

[thecorkman42]

they cant hit us cause we have them on camera like then we got the proof.

your proof also shows ye were out to provoke a peaceful protest of parents trying to stop thier children being poisined,,,,, if I were their I wont have dropped ur boyfriend like a hot spot ,,,, you human waste of space

[horgandavid]

@thecorkman42 if they worried about kids being poisoned then they shud protest outside off licenses!

[simondignam7]

@thecorkman42 Shut up and learn to use punctuation ya fuckin retard.

[lff12]

Absolutely brilliant. People who oppose headshops are generally responding to emotional hysteria that is whipped up everytime there is a discussion on drugs. What they don't realise is that the "highs" sold by headshops are such cack they are probably putting people off drugs for life. Hilarious though.

[sockdom]

instead of the shit sign someone should have had a sign saying " These Drugs are no worse for you than Alcohol or Nicotine or all the fatty food you fat fucks are eating" .

[redrum12]

Ruined by the camera man who sounds like such a retard

[horgandavid]

the camera man is a legend!!!

[redrum12]

you just proved my point there, nice one.

[horgandavid]

how so?

[redrum12]

self-flattery

[horgandavid]

i'm not the camera man! im one of the lads with the sign. infact it was my idea :)

[gobo20z]

"Ya feckin stoner, get away!" Hilarious. What on Earth motivated these people? What is it with this middle aged male demographic? When was the last time they saw someone on drugs running amoc in town?

[horgandavid]

yeah as opposed to drunk ppl fightin every night

[gobo20z]

@horgandavid

Last night i had to listen to drunken eejits roaring, screaming, shouting and smashing glass bottles outside my bedroom window until 4AM. Which i expect, I mean i live on Sullivan's Quay. But I don't see any protests about this type of behaviour. Clearly the menace in Cork is stoners, what with their staying in giggling at comedies, and supporting local food delivery services. Tut-tut, a disruptive and dangerous lot if ever I saw one.

[horgandavid]

i think this whole country is run by the drinks companies. think about it what ISNT sponsored by them?

[IrishGamingSociety]

Well played good sirs, well played

[lughildana]

Keep Our Children Safe! Why aren't they protesting outside the local church?!

[atemeshite]

Stick to liver failure and lung cancer lads, government knows best

[thefreewheelingirl]

that was well funny....fair play 2 whoever the guy was that went over with the sign.

[horgandavid]

handsome devils!

[gk3coloursred]

Alcohol - Legal and taxed

Nicotine - Legal and taxed

Drugs? Doth of the above are legal ones which are far more damaging to health and society than many (NOT ALL) of the head-shop drugs and some of the illegal ones.

[Sadhbhishness]

Brilliant! Haha... I definitely think the whole head shop thing's getting out of hand though, I mean the legal shit I find is much much more damaging to your system than the illegal! Legalise everything. Let's see what happens. Fuckit like, that's the one thing they've never tried =)

[crustyjuggler83]

beep beep

[horgandavid]

yeah close all the shops: more ppl on the dole and more money spent on illegal drugs. idiots

[Goregasm101]

That's whats so fucked up about it. They went down with the signs and shit AFTER a ban had already been fucking drawn up, therefore they are achieving fuck all and just went down because they had fuck all else to do and fancied a bit of playa hatin'.

[simondignam7]

eaxctamundo. i mean really. 1pm. on a tuesday afternoon. dont these people have jobs to go to? they probably dont, but thats the point. Theyve nothing better to do than this shit. Sad.

[horgandavid]

as opposed us us at 1pm that day... :P

[TheAtheistKnight]

What is Brightside?

[horgandavid]

a head shop

[TheAtheistKnight]

@horgandavid

Ah ok.

I used to work in the Funky Skunk. I don't know anything about Brightside though.

I heard there's some new thing people are protesting about the headshops selling, any idea what that is?

[horgandavid]

there's 'bath crystals' which is just legal coke. prob that,

[TheAtheistKnight]

@horgandavid

Right. I only heard a story in passing.. Was it something along the lines of some guy took something and then crashed his car or something?

[horgandavid]

dunno. usually with those there drink involved too....

[Goregasm101]

That would be Mephedrone. A highly effective stimulant sold as bath salts. It's the UK's third most popular club drug already and can be pretty habit forming. It's a great buzz when used sparingly but it's a definate full blown drug in every sense of the word. Junkies spend hundreds on it a week and you can inject the shit.

[carcass255]

I dunno I know the ugly guy next to him, name is simongous is something

[horgandavid]

a handsome young fella like that shud stay away from drugs

[Goregasm101]

What time were they there? I might pop down sometime and treat them to some Cypress Hill on the aul portable phone.

[horgandavid]

1pm

[Goregasm101]

I wonder how many of them went back to the pub after their little protest. Fucking dopes.

[horgandavid]

its ok to drink ur drug.... hypocrites
