CANNABIS CURE

Pete Barrett (letter 27 April) writes that all the cannabis users he knows
are addicted to tobacco. This should not be used as an argument to support
the continued ban on cannabis.

Many regular users are now choosing to smoke it neat or make cakes and
drinks in light of continued evidence of the dangers of tobacco. Indeed, I
know a number of life-long smokers who have used cannabis as an effective
means to quit the tobacco habit.

One, in particular, who had tried virtually every method of giving up and
had not used the drug before, found that an occasional smoke of cannabis not
only satisfied the craving for the feeling of smoke in the lungs, but
enabled him to cope with nicotine craving as well. It is ridiculous that the
dangerous drug is legal while the therapy is not. -- JUSTIN BRETT, Gilwern,
