LESSON ON DRUGS
Bravo Peter FitzSimons ("Fresh minds bring sanity to drug policy", Herald,
April 4). The politicians who fear that a health and education approach to
dealing with the issue of drug abuse will be unacceptable to the electorate
should speak to their constituents.
They may be surprised, and should be alarmed, at just how many of them will
have direct personal experience with the problem.
There won't be a backlash from people who are desperate for help.
