What the petition asks
North Wales has caught the attention of National news for the drug problem it has. Most (90%) of images used are that of Wrexham. We, as citizens should not be subjected to people hallucinating, acting strangely and sometimes violent in very public places. Everyday this is happening.
The behaviour of the addicts can be very intimidating. It is happening in the eyes of the elderly, the young and the general public.

This needs to stop, and stop now. Plenty of pictures and videos are publicly available on the Internet and social media. This needs to be controlled. Our future generations should not be forced to see this whilst doing our general shop in our town centre.
