The Greens introduced a bill for pill testing for illegal drugs at concerts it went nowhere.

Libertarians agreed with pill testing yet opposed the Greens bill  on how they wanted it done.

Libertarians don't believe taxpayers should fund pill testing that should be left up to those who want to do it.

Libertarians also objected to Greens wanting more bureaucracy with taxpayer funded purple and pink haired LGBTQ sitting around all day in their taxpayer funded office thinking of ways to make pill testing more complicated and difficult for those doing the testing.

Libertarian view was basically do your own testing the government doesn't need more taxpayer funded bureacrats telling you how to do it. :)

We are not pro drugs. We are against the state micromanaging our lives. A state so powerful it can knock on your door today to stop you smoking pot, will turn up soon after and arrest you for a Facebook post. We are in favour of privately organised campaigns to warn of the obvious dangers related to drug use. If that campaign has a compelling case it will change hearts and minds and people will voluntarily say no to drugs. The alternative is to stamp out drug use by the state threatening violence ... but that doesn't change hearts and minds and fuels a black market. Today I opposed a bill by the Greens to legalise pill-testing because they proposed a new slothful, inefficient and costly bureaucracy to manage the process. Do we really want a state so intrusive it wants public servants to control pill-testing? No. speech here- https://x.com/JohnRuddick2/status/1821076840657862817
