Drug Paraphenalia

Oil Companies Take Action but they need to do more

It is a great idea that gas stations are taking measures to ensure that they are not the purveyors of cigarettes to underage smokers, but what about the drug paraphernalia that is in many of these locations.
Blunts, crack pipe, papers and scales are for sale, along with other items and most likely minors can buy these quite easily. The places are magnets for dealers – what better place to find your customers?
Cleaning up our gas station/convenience stores starts really with each of us, not the oil companies.
Next time you are at a convenience store check to see what paraphernalia is for sale. Note down the address and inform others in the neighborhood what is really going on in these places. The majority of citizens don’t want drugs in their neighborhood.
Also look around your environment. If items like spoons, light bulbs and brillo pads are out of place, look for the drug addict in your life and get them some help.
Those struggling with addiction or those who want more information on how to clean up their community can visit www.drugsno.com or call 877-413-3073.
Together we can take back our communities. It is up to us.
