Yes I'd love to, there are thousands of publications in this country, can you just point me to one or two, so I can read the news?
I'm going to suggest you made it up.
I'll keep that in mind for the future
So basically you are going to continue to make unhelpful antagonistic posts towards me as you usually do. I guess this is what my ignore list is for.0 -
Legally, alcohol, tobacco etc are not the same as cocaine/benzos/opioids. However ethically I would say they are equivalent, alcohol is a particularly toxic drug, and I would not sell alcohol for the same reason I would not sell cocaine or heroin, it is an addictive and potentially very harmful substance that I don't want to deal in.
Refusing to sell someone something is not denying them the right to buy it, whereas conversely the dwp sanctioning you would be forcing you to sell it against your ethical beliefs. The government can not credibly on one hand have heroin users beaten by police while sanctioning others for refusing to participate in the exact same trade!Yes I'd love to, there are thousands of publications in this country, can you just point me to one or two, so I can read the news?

Maybe if you answered a simple direct question with a verifiable source for your claim you might have more luck.Originally Posted by shortcrust
