SenatorSiewert What BS

SenatorSiewert Now, lawlessness prevails, and Police become 'social workers '

SenatorSiewert Years in prison for users and sellers...

SenatorSiewert But abortions are okay right?

SenatorSiewert A tough issue with no perfect sollution. How does testing work. 1. Test pills 2. Approve/disapprove toxic level. 3. Approve usage?/Charge?

SenatorSiewert They aren't legal, if you choose to take them so be it.

SenatorSiewert That's just it, there hasnt been a war, theres been a timid response. Execute drug dealers for a start

SenatorSiewert Taxpayers paying soon for illegal drugs!

SenatorSiewert No no no.

SenatorSiewert Solution is simple. Personal responsibility. You can’t outsource personal responsibility to the government.

SenatorSiewert a full assault with DHS, Home Affairs, DFAT, ATO, ASIC, ADF, AFP, ASD. a strikeforce using SAS to eliminate the OBG and drug dealers. Freeze their assets, Now that’s how you fight a war!

SenatorSiewert The war on drugs was never a real war. it was a pathetic political hot potatoe with no real leadership. if its a war then get our mighty military and intelligence to wipe those OBG and dealers off our planet.

SenatorSiewert Won't solve the problem. What good is pill testing when people will overdose due to excessive quantity anyway. 'The bad news Mr and Mrs Smith is that your son is dead due to a drug overdose, but the good news it that the 4 pills he took were actually deemed safe!'

SenatorSiewert Don’t allow them into Music (Drug) Festivals.

SenatorSiewert How about all the pro-testing Green MPs go to the festivals and offer to personally test the pills themselves? Kill two birds with one stone, I mean pill.

SenatorSiewert Don't buy drugs plain and simple

SenatorSiewert Why make drug taking legal! Stupid idea. If your taking drugs! Then that’s your call. If you die, then that’s your fault. Just don’t take them in the first place, you know the repercussions.

SenatorSiewert Hash cookies and magic mushie omelettes at festivals. Non-chemical and non-violent. Money spinner. The shiny bums could slap a tax on it. 🙄

SenatorSiewert Can anyone categorically tell me if the drug is tested it will do no harm to who is taking it? All drugs are dangerous even if its tested it a drug dahhhh

SenatorSiewert No we don’t

SenatorSiewert Use the laws we have... that’s why we have them! Fine, imprison, deport drug suppliers and takers. Make an example of the so called role model celebrities first. Drugs are illegal. It’s NOT ok to break the law!!

SenatorSiewert People are responsible for their actions.

SenatorSiewert This is another Government cop out 😠If someone is stupid enough to take the shit they deserve everything that they get 😠 Yes it's sad, but no-one forces them to take it. 🤔

SenatorSiewert Apply a Philippines solution - quick, easy & effective.

SenatorSiewert Breed smarter people.

SenatorSiewert Be a dill take the pill it will probably kill.. 🖕🏻

SenatorSiewert Helicopter Parenting suicidal youth is OTT. Drink beer spoiled brats. What next. Get your Chickens 🐓 tested here for salmonella poisoning/ then move to the next Queue after the Chocolate Kinder Surprise Queue for the orange pills test.

SenatorSiewert simply solution - if any drugs are found on people entering a music festival - shut it down immediately, send people home, fine promoters massively, do it a couple of times and music fans will eventually wake up and self police, and druggies can go somewhere else

SenatorSiewert If a private enterprise wants to set up a pill testing booth at a festival, charge a small fee for each test, or even be hired by the festival itself, that should be allowed. I'm against tax, so I'd rather it not be a government thing.

SenatorSiewert Increase the penalties for drug pushers & takers. Pill testing is NOT a deterrent - its a cop-out & promotes drug taking!

SenatorSiewert I wonder how Singapore does it ...

SenatorSiewert Don’t be ridiculous. Nothing fails until you give up! Harm is the by product of taking illegal drugs and therefore not the responsible of the state.

SenatorSiewert 'Australia's drug policy has been a total failure for 40 years' Bob Carr

SenatorSiewert Here’s a strategy - don’t take them!

SenatorSiewert How about telling the kids straight: play stupid games, win stupid prizes?

SenatorSiewert 'War on drugs' has almost failed because the judiciary is weak, the police is tied by endless red tape, and politicians have no courage, common sense, or morals for that matter

SenatorSiewert There are some things you can't change. Drug taking is one of them. As long as people are just causing injury to themselves, just let them go. These people are not teenagers, they are adults that know what they are doing and the risk. This is just mother natures way

SenatorSiewert Let them smoke pot.

SenatorSiewert same way the 'war on alcohol' failed 80 years ago

SenatorSiewert In my business, I have legal & moral obligations to provide a safe environment for my workers, customers & suppliers. The equipment, systems & people that do this are not free. Why should my tax $ be used to prop up at best a private enterprise, more likely a criminal activity

SenatorSiewert Reduce the harm. Perhaps parent the child to not take the drug. Adults, you’re smart enough to know if you take the drug, you’re risking your life. It’s already outlawed. Policing can only do so much. The rest is up to the willing party taking the drug. responsibility

SenatorSiewert If these idiots want to take drugs let them and let them lie in the streets until they can get up and sort themselves out because they are of no value to anyone.

SenatorSiewert Instead of classing drugs as illegal or legal, just call them drugs. Just because something is legal doesn't mean it won't harm you or kill you so please stop this illegal vs legal. They're all drugs & none should be illegal when the legal kill far more than the illegal.Auspol

SenatorSiewert Just lock up the suppliers for 25 years, no matter how far down the food chain they are. It’s not hard.
