CANNABIS WILL LEAD TO A ZOMBIE NATION

IN ALASKA some years ago, it was decided to legalise cannabis. Nine years
later it was criminalised again because the hard drug problem had escalated
and cannabis was believed to be the reason.

The so-called experts and wannabies who call for decriminalisation seem to
forget the effects of long-term, regular use of the drug. Cannabis kills
white blood cells, creating impotence in males and premature senility.

The health service would collapse if cannabis were legalised and we would
become a nation of zombies.

If we could turn the clock back and discovered alcohol and tobacco today,
both would be banned because of their effects on the body.

In my 37 years as a London police officer, I saw children grow up to become
drug addicts and their first taste of drugs was always cannabis.

At a lecture on drugs, police officers were asked if they had taken
cannabis and the majority had. Some had even moved on to hard drugs. I
suspect this is the reason why the police are not randomly drug tested.

The same lecturer gave lectures to doctors and teachers and the response
was the same.

Drugs are evil and ruin lives and families. Surely today's politicians are
not so weak as to allow any form of legalisation?
