Nice people take drugs
Release, the campaigning organisation that specialises in drugs and drugs law, is running an advert campaign on London buses during June. With the slogan ‘Nice People Take Drugs’, Release is looking to open up the drugs debate and engage the public in a more sophisticated and honest drugs dialogue.
Explaining why Release was moved to run this campaign, executive director Sebastian Saville said, “the constant association by politicians and the media of drugs with words like evil and shame simply does not reflect most people’s experience of drugs. The public is tired of the artificial representation of drugs in society, which is not truthful about the fact that all sorts of people use drugs. If we are to have a fair and effective drug policy, it must be premised on this reality first and foremost.”
With this campaign, Release believes it can shift the debate on drugs and bring about more effective and safer drug policy.

This implies that they are campaining all about good things to use drugs. It is not actually a good idea for me, it show that we need to be dependent through medicated/prescripted drugs.

I don't think that nice people take drugd, in fact people who are not nice, they take drugs. Drugs in any form only have a bad effects on any person. It can be anything heroin, cocaine, alcohol etc. Out of these i think alcohol is most serious drug. However, alcoholism is not always as easy to notice as is drug addiction. Alcohol addiction ruins the lives of alcoholics and of lives of their families and who are alcohol addicts they should be provided with proper Alcohol Addiction Treatment.

I dont agree with you that nice people take drugs. Drugs addiction is a very serious problem in the society and affects the health of the addict a lot. So, they should go to the drug addiction treatment for recovery process.

We are demanding more effective and safer drugs laws that provide healthcare for drug users that need it.

People tend to judge and avoid those who became drug addicts without considering the circumstances which lead to such a situation, or the addicts feelings. Just imagine you are some foolish teenager on a party, and some older and obviously cooler friend of yours would try to get you some drugs. You would love to get attention so of course you will try it without thinking to much of the following consequences. Sooner or later you would become an addict, although you have never wanted this for yourself. This would induce you a low self esteem, making the drug addiction treatment even more difficult. You wouldn't like to be judged in such moments, wouldn't you? You would rather need help and support, any kind of moral support so keep that in mind the next time when you see a drug addict, he might really be a nice person.
hi

There must be a firm and detailed facts along with a drug policy to stop the illegal abuse of narcotics and over the counter drugs. Along with the help of specialists to guide us with such matters so that there would be no drug abuse and crimes related to this.

My question is that when teens take drugs isn't that bad for them. During their growing up years teens need to be protected from drugs. They are new and succumb to drugs as its thought to be a fad for them. The end result is that they end up in drug rehab centers or residential treatment center.

Misinformation
Alistair,
Most teens who experiment with drugs don't end with any problems what so ever. This is a fact. Some teens do have problems, I suspect that they would have had problems whether they had experimented with drugs or not.
That is why promoting responsible use is so important.
about time too
This sort of thing is well overdue. It is crazy that so little is said about drugs, especially considering how far and wide they are involved in so many aspects of social policy - education, health, youth, crime, economics, trade.... i mean, when was the last time you heard a senior politician talking about drugs? what are they all so afraid of? let's get the country talking.

You can look into organizations when finding health care services. Just make sure that a thorough and extensive background check is done on employees. Most of the time, your loved one will be left with his or her companion or aide, and you'd want to make sure that you leave him or her with someone who is competent and trustworthy.
