PUBLIC DEBATE

"Cannabis undoubtedly poisons the mind, and very often will lead
to psychological problems, if not schizophrenia...very few will be
able to formulate an objective and sincere opinion on the subject when
confronted with a sensible opposing view." John Pye, The Sentinel,
Thursday December 13.

I would like to challenge Mr Pye to a public debate. Irrespective of
how many people experience problems with cannabis (actually it seems
like a very small number of users), the question remains; why should
cannabis users who have done no harm to others be punished by law?
