I'm surprised you fell for that!<br /><br />Dispensing heroin at 'shooting galleries' can't be much more expensive than e.g. running a pub. Seeing as the raw material cost of a shot of heroin is about the same as the raw material cost of a pint of lager, one shot a day at @ £3 would be about £1,000 per addict per year.<br /><br />Any sensible system would charge them £3 per shot (or whatever) so the net cost would f*** all divided by six.<br /><br />@ Ryan, good point, in relative terms (legal) methadone is about three times as likely to cause death than (illegal) heroin. Plus it doesn't give you the proper buzz.Mark Wadsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07733511175178098449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-40638602810813807032009-09-14T13:46:43.571+01:002009-09-14T13:46:43.571+01:00Methadone is as additive as heroin, with equally n...Methadone is as additive as heroin, with equally nasty side effects.

It also kills about 400 idiots a year (half as many as scag). The only reason it is prescribed is puritanism, there's no buzz in it.<br /><br />And only the NHS could arrive at a figure of 15,000 per year for medical heroin and a portacabin. Security might be a justifiable reason though I guess. The stuff would be cheap as aspirin if it wasn't for the illegality.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04380212308975032310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-31303069247652187092009-09-14T10:39:46.674+01:002009-09-14T10:39:46.674+01:00Give the fucker all the smack they want.

My concept of a "shooting gallery" was rather different though - instead of being offered a fix in controlled surroundings - I was thinking more along the lines of a "last cigarette"Fidel Cuntstrucknoreply@blogger.com
