Drugs are not the problem, trouble makers are.
Everything in moderation, just not on the road.
I drove on acid once when I was young, I was an idiot.

Reinforcement sterteotyping for the club and it's catchment area? Or no affect at all?
Just wondering on people's thoughts with Canterbury Bankstown specifically mentioned and thoughts whether it may subconsciously affect the football club.

Not judging or offering a view. Just wanted to canvas opinions as a matter of interest. That's all.

I think the whole plan is fucking horseshit, tbh..... there’s no way they will reduce drug dependence by cutting off benefits... they will only generate more crime. If they are serious about this, they need to make a genuine effort to provide funding for meaningful rehab programs. Otherwise they will just end up with overcrowded jails.... the taxpayer will pay either way.

and/or better funding education and job training.

This is up there with the cashless welfare card program that costs more to implement than the actual welfare itself.

I'm sure if you follow the money, it probably wouldn't be hard to find a connection between donations and private contracts.

Here’s a fact for people.
It’s not just unemployed people who use drugs.

Does anyone forget about Ray Hadleys arrogant copper son who was running around doing lines of coke?

Is he unemployed and now claiming benefits?
Drug test him first.

Although I’ve heard cocaine actually cleans out of your system faster than marijuana and speed?

Bullshit prejudices already on display in this thread
You know what's funny about stereotypes. 90% of the people targeted find it funny but 10% are offended so we can't have jokes.

Wish some of the do gooders would know their audience before they crusade on their behalf when it's far from appreciated

Just relax bro. Alot of wasted energy these days trying so hard to be offended you must tired

I thought there would be worse areas they could have started with to be honest.

if it makes you feel any better, Logan here in SE QLD is also one of the first places for the trial.

In all fairness, I didn't make clear which post or posts I was referring too. I wasn't referring to the stereotyping comedy posts if it makes you feel better.

So loosen your tie a bit
