Unpopular opinions

Honestly, on the drugs and celebrity deaths issues I am never going to agree with you Mclaine, and I'm guessing that is just down to our personal views on the issues. In the interests of forum status quo I'm backing out of this debate.
David, I'm sorry for your experiences and loss.

Yeah that's the last I was going to say about it anyway; sorry if I offended, I overreacted because addiction has taken a lot of people from me.

While I appreciate their place in history and their influence on bands that don't, the Ramones suuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

I can sympathise here Mclain….experienced both drugs and the losses...lost a fair few friends to Heroin along the way. Often those who struggled to fit in or find their place in a society such as ours. Despite these painful losses, I seriously advocate the wholesale legalisation of drugs, a position supported by a number of drug charities in the UK. An opinion infamously espoused by Judge Pickles here in England during the 90s. An unpopular opinion but hey, that's the name of the game here right? Recall a Guardian series of reports about Heroin...dispelled a great many myths. For example, 100% pure smack is no more or less harmful than sugar for the human organism.

I kind of like it when there's a new post in the Villains thread.

haha, thanks!

Denim and workwear is becoming too much like couture fashion. Some of the things I see people lauding these days make me both depressed and confused. Basically dudes wearing a costume.
At least a brand like RRL admits that they are fashion focused, some other brands I see out there (and the folks wearing it) look down on that whilst doing exactly the same thing.
(Not referring to IH at all here btw)

Fair play G, maybe it's just a symptom of my exposure to it these days. What we see and read on the internet fill the empty spaces of our minds….. Of which I have many.

Sorry to pull you up, but that's blatantly wrong, and that sort of careless paraphrasing based on one-eyed reporting has the potential to do a lot of harm. Sugar doesn't often depress your central nervous system to the point you stop breathing, nor does it cause psychotic episodes or lead people to pick holes in their skin. Sure it causes it's own set of problems, but it ain't no opiate.

I fail to see how my opinions are in any way potentially harmful! If someone goes out and sticks a needle in his groin based on what he read on a denim forum then I guess we can safely assume he has problems. I would gladly read any studies you may find that show/prove the poisonous nature of heroin. My original point was simply this: prohibition renders everything more toxic than it really is. If you were to declare water illegal today, then tomorrow you would have all sorts of cut-up nastiness on the streets.
