recently i made friends with a guy who get's high on P. he was mowing the lawns a few weeks ago when a stick got stuck in the mower, so he put his hand in to get the stick out and minces up his four fingers. they still there, but are still plastered up with metal rods on each finger. ouch!
listening to the radio the other day i heard about a movie trying to get funding here in N.Z. about P and the affects it has on the relationships of friends and Whanau. it seems it is near impossible for some to just quite it, so management seems the best option for some. it is prevelent more in the upper class and usually among people with good managerial skills as they can keep the addiction in control and not be controlled by it (hidden). this seems dangerous to our future as these people have a big part in what goes on in the world.

P 'biggest issue' : marches
AUCKLAND - A hikoi, smaller in scale than the foreshore and seabed protest but considered more important by the organisers, headed for Parliament from Auckland yesterday.
One side of downtown Queen St, was closed off at midday for the group of marches declaring a war against the use of the drug P.
"Whanau, this is far greater than the foreshore.The land will always be there, but where would the land be without the people," campaigner Meretatana Hotea, of Waiuku, said.
Up to 100 people from Auckland communities wore the Fight Against P T-shirts and chanted "one,two,three,four, say no to P and shut the door." "five,six,seven,eight, come on mate it's not too late," they continued as they made their way down the city's main street.
The march, organised by Marie Cotter of Pukekohe, began yesterday and ends on Parliament steps at 12:30 pm on Thursday.
Gloria Taaka, whose granddaughter passed the drug's harmful effects on to her child, said New Zealanders needed to stand "hand-in-hand" to fight the drug.
"We don't want P-babies. We need to let our parliamentaries know. "They have children, they're compassionate - I know they are," Ms Takka said.
"It's in every town in New Zealand."
Ms Cotter said the planning for the march began three months ago, when Ms Taaka shed tears on her shoulder about the effects of P on her family.
Ms Cotter initially set up a website and network for people to gain information on the drug.
She said she hoped the country's leaders would fund more services and education on the effects of P.
Grandmother Betty Murray broke down in tears when she found Ms Cotter holding a wreath of flowers with a photograph of her dead grandson, Samuel Todd. Ms Murray said Mr Todd, 20, committed suicide in 2003. She said he had been a P-user.
Supported by her elderly friends, Ms Murray said she could only join the Marches for Queen St.
Maori Party co-leader Pita Sharples and National MP Paul Hutchison walked behind the main banner down the street.
"We believe P is the worst drug that's ever come to this country. It disrupts family and it's associated (with) violence, which we abhor," Dr Sharples said.
"This is what should be no tolerance - not graffiti, or prostitutes walking around. This is far more dangerous for New Zealand society."
He said he believed the issues could be agreed upon across all political parties.
The marchers will travel by bus to main centres on route to Wellington, and march through the towns.
They will stay at marae in Huntly, Rotorua and Otaki.
They were joined by five police officers from Wellington, who will be travelling with them to ensure a safe passage through to Wellington.- NZPA.
Originally posted by windmillone of my friends is also using P. Another guy in the car they were in got into an altercation with about 30 prospectors in an opposing gang with the patched members looking on. They managed to get away after a bit of a rumble and the police arrived, blocked of the road. Don't know why you don't hear about so much in the paper when you know what goes on. Mabey the police only tell what is suitable to their good name and i think they have been too scared or lack the intellect to fight against P. They rather wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and see what a fine person they are.

I've never tried it, just seen what goes on with some people. Sounds like you buy it and dissapear into a safe environment.
