QUESTIONS FOR PROMINENT PEOPLE

I have a couple of questions for the prominent citizens:

SINCE you say you are in favour of injecting rooms, will one or all of you
have the first one in your home, or does your support only extend to have
them in someone else's neighborhood?

WHAT makes you think you know best?

WHY does an initiative start with injecting rooms, not drug
withdrawal/rehabilitation?

You are trading on your reputation in other areas to push your idea. I am
disappointed that so-called prominent Australians would support the use of
illegal drugs.

I wonder who the expert committee on drugs (which can't get the community to
agree to their ideas) will get to help them push their barrow next? The
Queen Mother?
