They stay in support of drug dogs and strip searching though. Practices which directly lead to overdoses as people swallow their drugs in a panic.
Last year their refusal to allow pill testing killed people. Hopefully this year fewer families will have holes punched in them by ideological belligerence that sees their deaths as a fair price in pursuit of a goal that has never been achieved in any country anywhere in history.
@NaevaTheRat I can totally see anyone wanting to approach the pill testing tent at a festival to have to get through a wall of cops with sniffer dogs and strip searching.
Probs watch it closely for people that are testing a lot at least :/
Someone (or a bunch of people) should go down deliberately looking suspicious, carrying paracetamol and powdered sugar. Walk in and out of the pill testing. Discreetly palm some of it over to someone else. Etc.
Tie up police resources dealing with bullshit rather than people doing actual drugs.
I think deliberately pretending to do a crime is actually illegal in aus.
Good luck proving that.
Especially if you dump the sugar part and just stick to panadol.
You could just walk over to the testing tent and ask questions for curiosity’s sake. DanceWize for example have charts (from memory) showing the absolute no-gos for mixing (mix this and this and you WILL die) so if you head over to a pill testing tent just to ask curious questions you’ll probably feel suspicious anyway and cops might take interest and “randomly” search you. No pretending to do a crime needed.
