The Garda National Drugs Unit launched Operation Fluorine yesterday. Twenty-two so-called ‘head shops,’ which stock herbal products that might cause a natural high, were targeted around the state.
Gráinne Kenny, international president of Europe Against Drugs, congratulated the Garda on yesterday's operation. She said many shops around the country were ‘selling drugs that are potentially very risky.’
Europe Against Drugs (Eurad) is a Wango (World Association of NGOs) member and held its conference in Bucharest this September. Founded in 1988 Eurad believes that Europe’s ‘drug problem is like the Black Death’ of our times.
Ms Kenny, who believes that all drugs are bad and cannabis is a drug, strongly favours the elimination of potential risk in all areas of life, especially for the youth.
