This is why youth crime is out of control in Queensland.

Offenders are well aware of which criminal offences get the feather duster treatment and which ones can be painted as "potentially disastrous" and can be slugged with massive fines for "what might have happened".

My daughter was caught using her phone driving when living in Townsville earlier this year, and because her vehicle was registered in her companies name the fine was applied to the company and was over $6000. Obviously she appealed and took the fine on her own licence and it was still over $1200.

Unfortunately drug use has become a social norm in this country and magistrates treat it like speeding because they believe everyone does it.

WRONG. How does an old bloke like me get from point A to point B safely nowadays when so much of this "social norm" shit goes on?

As a lady, who lost a loved one due to the other driver testing when driving, I've got zero sympathy for your daughter.

Drug use is the norm and has been for the entirety of human history

If it is it should‘nt be.

Those who choose to take illicit substances are directly supporting organised crime and organised crime is involved in the most heinous criminal activities.

Ok. Now the only reason these "criminals" exist is because of drug laws.......

The war on drugs is such a farce
