I recently caught my son buying drugs from the local drug dealer outside the Dairy. After pressure on my son i have found that he is [edited by Site Admin]. I quite frequently see this man around and i personally want him OUT of our neighborhood! If you know this man, approach him and be rude till he gets the message and leaves!

Cheers. Upset mother

If you have a grudge with someone 'upset mother' how about you take the adult/mature approach and contact the local police (if you have actual facts), rather than hiding behind an anonymous website to name and shame? Maybe you are ashamed because YOUR son is doing drugs. Bet you wouldn't like your sons name put on here would you, and I have a feeling I know who it is too.

Asking people to be rude to someone they don't even know is completely immature, grow up lady! He's actually not a bad guy and is ALWAYS friendly and polite, which is a hell of alot more than I can say for some of the snobby pretentious so called adults around here who seem to think they are better than all and sundry; so maybe get your facts straight before running someone down on an anonymous website - you have also breached the rules of this website (you are not to use peoples names, nor create rumors for your own benefit) - read here http://www.greenhithe.org.nz/portal/discuss/hints-and-tips/349334393

In addition to what the previous poster said:

• The best way to deal with this is through the police. If Upset Mother reported this to the police the dealer would get locked away and her son would get the rap over the knuckles that he needs.
• Please don't use these forums as a way to get 'justice' while hiding behind anonymity. There are better ways (the police in this instance).
• If Upset Mother wants to discuss how best to handle this, I suggest she speaks to Hermien Kok. That is a significant part of her job and she understands how to deal with community policing issues sensitively. http://www.greenhithe.org.nz/portal/content/community-constable.html for contacts.

I actually find it hard to believe that two people have posted here knowing that someone is dealing drugs in our community, and not ONE has thought to provide the information to the police. But they'll bleat and complain when someone breaks their letter box...

So,
Upset Mother, your son does drugs. What have you done about it? Do you want him out of the community too? If he and others like him didn't buy drugs then there would be no market. It follows that there would be no dealers.

Every community has a person or persons who deal in or use non-prescription drugs. Greenhithe is likely to be no different in that regard, and your son fits one of those categories. It is almost certain that he can find another supplier if he so desires.

I suggest that you get your own house in order before you burst into print as you did pm Sunday.

There are ways to deal with activity of this nature (see above post from Site Admin), without going down a possibly slanderous path, when facts are not known or fully understood.

Be aware also that although your post appears under the signature of Anonymous (There are a lot of persons named Anon y mouse in Greenhithe), your ISP details are logged and you can be traced, or even banned from posting if need be.

For Site Admin.
Thanks for the quick response and editing of the offending parts of that post.

Cheers,
