I CAN'T SUPPORT THIS INSANITY

It APPEARS reader Alan Buffry disagrees with my stance on
drugs.

I will make no apologies for that; my hatred of drugs stems from
personal experience. While I agree cannabis does not affect everyone
the same way, who can tell before taking it? The facts are that
cannabis is a mind-altering substance that causes paranoia and
schizophrenia in people who are susceptible. Mr Buffry states it is
pointless advocating a prohibition policy that has failed. The reason
it is failing is lack of determination and punishment on the part of
our Government and the justice system. I have no problem with cannabis
being used for medicinal purposes to alleviate pain, but do not
support recreational use in any form. Whenever the liberal elite have
their way, they are not satisfied. They want more and more. Well as
for Mr Buffry and Mrs Dilys Woods' call for legislation, I for one
will not support this insanity.
