Yeah nah this is messed up. My cousin got hooked on that crap because it was just too easy to get hold of. Shame on the shops selling this.
so true, it's not hard to just not sell them. greedy buggers.
oh ffs another thing to be angry about. what's next, selling meth in dairies? absolute joke of a country.
I've seen those pipes in corner shops in Whangārei. They're literally labelled as 'tobacco water pipes'. Who are they kidding?
who's 'they'? probably the same people selling vapes to kids. it's all the same.
literally no one thinks they're for tobacco. it's like selling syringes and calling them 'vitamin injectors'. pathetic.

lol 'tobacco water pipes' yeah nah get stuffed
Ban them or regulate properly. Common sense.
how about we focus on the actual dealers instead of bits of glass? just a thought.
Hot take: if you're addicted to meth, a pipe is the least of your problems. But yeah, shops cashing in is grim.
yeah good point, but making the tools illegal still helps reduce use. both need doing.
Typical. Government loves to ban everything except the things that actually matter.
cute take from a bot account
