Well... It has an effect on my life, as the pushers she keeps in business are also selling to folks who can't really afford it who then try to steal my stuff to pay for their habit.

So, I say prosecute.

I think someone made the point that Bush had done coke and yet there aren't many people making the same sort of fuss or calling for prosecution, and those that did were soundly dismissed by supporters of his.

I'm not sure if you live in the UK (from the Pol/War lounge, I thought you were American), so pardon me if I'm wrong, but I'm going to go on a limb and say what's happening with UK some upper-class citizen doing some drugs has little baring upon your life.

Consider yourself pardoned.

That was pure genius!

Oh, Cody. Hope you're having fun.

PookJP · Sep 23, 2005, 12:43 AM

Frankly, the whole thing strikes me a ridiculous. We see pictures of what we all knew, and suddenly we act like there's been some revelation. "You mean that emaciated person who looks to have every physical characteristic of a drug user, who works in an industry synonymous with coke, who is dubbed "heroin chic," actually uses drugs??? We had no idea!"

Cody Dawg · Sep 23, 2005, 12:46 AM

I'm not having fun.

I'm honestly wondering if Kate Moss will be prosecuted. I hope she gets help, to be honest. And, anyway, ever since she started seeing Doherty she's gone downhill. She needs an intervention and if her friends and family cannot provide it then maybe the police will in the form of a prosecution.

qnxde · Sep 23, 2005, 02:10 AM

I can't seem to get addicted to anything. Even crystal meth. Or nicotine (though they were menthols

)

I daren't try heroin, anything intravenous is just ew. I guess some people are just more susceptible to it than others.

Cubeoid · Sep 23, 2005, 02:49 AM

I want to see more "amazing photos inside".

vinster · Sep 23, 2005, 03:00 AM

I think the British tabloids are having a field day in getting revenge for prior suits by Ms. Moss against them. Also, kind of funny how the "Mirror" first reported this story.

Warung · 03:06 AM

What? You want to persecute a waifish supermodel for doing coke? What next? Persecute politicians for lying?

Anywho, I'd hit at warp speed!

Oh yeah! WOOOOOT!

Would you like your surgeon and whatnot drunk? No? But we're not talking about prosecuting people for drinking, and unless you live in the 1920s alcohol is not illegal. So don't be a hypocrite.

The law she broke is possession of an illegal substance, unless they recover the substance then it won't stand up in court. The video is only supporting evidence, you need da drugz!

They could use the video to get a magistrate to sign a warrant so they can raid her home, but, they would still have to find some Charlie before they pressed charges.

Poor little boy indeed if he has people like you gunning for him.

I read your posts, week after week, there's always someone at the top of your sh*tlist. You're just an awful, vindictive person aren't you?

And you're incredibly naive. Let me explain it to you - Cocaine use is so widespread, and so accepted, in all levels of society, it's going to take a massive shift in society itself to see any reduction in its use. As with smoking, alcohol etc...

Ask yourself - Is there really any point in victimising someone if they haven't victimised someone themselves?

The authorities here are pretending they're going to prosecute her, like they always do in these cases, because they have to appear to be doing something. They're not going prosecute her.

This is all a complete waste of time. Just like Cocaine.

Be a more forgiving person, you'll be happier.

Do you know why people say Bush did coke? When asked, he said he wasn't responding to such questions.

So they said that automatically means he is guilty, and they all started calling him a cokehead.

The press will make what they wish with no info.

You can snort and smoke heroin. So go ahead and try. You wont get addicted a bit.

Actually she's a pretty nice person. And no kid should have to be brought up in such a lifestyle.

And you're incredibly naive. Let me explain it to you - Cocaine use is so widespread, and so accepted, in all levels of society, it's going to take a massive shift in society itself to see any reduction in its use. As with smoking, alcohol etc...

Actually your view of society is distorted. All levels of society don't accept it at all. Actually only a few parts of society does. And usually they are doing it too.

If society as a whole accepted it, it wouldn't be illegal.

Ask yourself - Is there really any point in victimising someone if they haven't victimised someone themselves?

If they were only responsible for themselves, then yes. When they have custody of a child, then it's not just hurting themselves.

Be a more forgiving person, you'll be happier.

There is a difference between forgiving someone, and all out recklessness.

You can forgive someone, and still want them to get help.

Bush's (ex) coke habit is well documented by eye witnesses. It looks like he's got his demons under control, so all power to him in that respect. After all, we've all got them.

Cody Dawg · Sep 23, 2005, 07:44 AM

Actually, I'm a very happy person, OB1

She's in the public eye and she's open to some criticism. Would I walk up to Kate Moss if I saw her on the street and tell her she's a piece of crap? Of course not. I wish Kate Moss the best. But, I'm still entitled to my opinion and my opinion is that if you are a person who, when out in public, flagrantly snorks cocaine - frequently in front of others - then there should be ramifications, that's all. Myself included.

She's a role model for a lot of young women. And, obviously, other people feel similarly or the big fashion houses and advertising agencies wouldn't have dropped her like a hot potato.

If you can say Bush snorted coke by that, I can say the Clinton's killed off all those people during their 8 year run.

Kevin · Sep 23, 2005, 08:10 AM

Cody if she had no other people depending on her, I could really care less what she does in public. She could masturbate with a crack pipe for all I care.

It's when you have someone depending on you, esp a child, that it gets selfish on her part.

Coke heads don't do less and less coke. It's the opposite.

What happens to the kid when she ODs?

Not going to elaberate too much to derail, but there is a string of people that ended up dead that had direct ties to the Clinton's bad dealings.

She's open to a lot of criticism, and fairly so.

Your suggestion that she should have her son taken away is hideous. She took a drug = tear a mother and son apart??? How vicious of you.

That is very sad Cody. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. She is a prime example where some just aren't meant to be parents.

Don't really care what happens to her. It is the child that is innocent in all this.

In itself, the fact that she did coke does not mean that her child's upbringing has been affected in a negative way.

Kevin · Sep 23, 2005, 02:05 PM

For doing a drug? No.

For being a drug addict? Yes, if just for a short time. Being a drug addict is a full time job. You can't be a drug addict and a good parent at the same time.

kmkkid · Sep 23, 2005, 02:21 PM

Who says she's a drug addict? For all we know it was her first time and she got razzi'd. Not likely, but we don't know the facts, and therefore shouldn't make assumptions.

Also, who's to say they weren't diet pills crushed up and snorted for quick results?

With the kind of money she has? It won't make a blind bit of difference. Nanny is looking after the kid while mummy is away on a shoot/partying/out of it.

[/b]
That is why i said NO if it was just doing the drug, and no addiction.

One thing I have found about coke, no one does it "occasionally" for long periods of time.

If you keep on doing it "occasionally" it always turns into a habit.

You mean amphetamines? Come on.... the gal can afford coke.

Ok tell me. Is leaving your kid behind and going out partying all the time make one a good parent?

tracemhunter · Sep 23, 2005, 03:21 PM

When you wind up paranoid, psychotic, potless and in state sponsored rehab or prison then it IS my business.
Nobody is immune from the effects of narcotics. You already sound like an addict; your argument is irrational.
Do you really think the effects all go away when you leave your home?

And legal liquor is any different? Does this make all who enjoy a beer responsibly fall into your "addict" category? Many drugs can be done in moderation with little or no harm to the user. To suggest that a "user" of any drug is automatically an "addict" is silly.
