    Just once I would love to not have to run the gauntlet of drug addicts as I enter the supermarket.

      I would like to spread the word in that community that no-one carries cash anymore. So yelling at me demanding coins simply does not work. But I digress.

        Why do supermarkets allow the loitering is another question. I certainly wouldn’t want anything to put off my customers.

          I’m not sure either, and I’m really conscious of it when I take my kids with me 😳 It’s like, I know you’ve got problems but don’t. talk. to. my. kids when you’re off your head mate, or we will have a problem.

      I wish we could invent a meth vaccine. Take meth and nothing happens, no addiction. Meth seems especially bad for anti-social behaviours compared to other drugs.

        What an intriguing concept. The cynic in me says they will probably turn to another drug eventually though.

        Yeah apparently with heroin people were more sleepy and less aggressive. Both fairly destructive though.

      I had one come up to me in the supermarket tonight and ask for money. I said I didn’t have any cash. The next person he asked said, “nah the bank’s got all mine!”
