Richard, if this guy did kill folk with GHB, then he did do it. !..No matter how much you go on about it on here.. and i'm not sure why..as we all know how you feel about it.. sometimes this can happen.. examining drug taking by gay men, is not a personal attack on you ..and i am a fan of your writing
ReplyDeleteSorry, I'm not sure what you're saying.

Hear no evil, see no evil, overdose on no evil.
ReplyDeleteToo true. They also skirted around the fact that the Orton/Halliwell deaths were a symptom of the gay D.I.Y. lifestyle phenomenon. You know, you can still buy a hammer in any B&Q?
