I think of Samuel every time I see a young kid in an early model souped up car, 'P' plates and their bloody music blarrrring DOOF! DOOF! DOOF!
Expensive vehicle, expensive stereo - I know how he's affording it.
It doesn't impress me....
He may end up like Samuel.....and yet another mother cries.
I loath drugs.
Yes ... I guess, at one time it was lads and their hot cars and booze. Now, it is lads and their hot cars and Class A drugs. Many of them seem to have replaced the one drug with the other, or supplemented it.
And both of these drugs - legal alcohol and illegal drugs - lead to far too many road deaths and problems.
Though I will always agree that the drug ice/meth is the absolute current scourge of our society, among the addicts. Though, at one time (and maybe even now), heroin was equally as bad. Back in those 'golden triangle' days when heroin was flooding in from Asia - a lot of it on its way to other countries - and was cheap as cheap, and very plentiful, on the street.
