Dear Sir/Madam,
DRUG DAMAGED
For
years I have believed the statements of successive UK governments that
Cannabis is a dangerous and addictive drug that leads inexorably to the
destruction of the health and morals of those using it and of society as
we know it.
The recent decision by the Home Secretary to hand it out to children can only allow of two conclusions:
Either
the substance is safe and we have been lied to - or it is not. In which
case, even if it has medicinal properties, it should continue to be
banned in the wider interests of society notwithstanding that a few sick
and pain-ridden children are collateral damage in the war against
drugs.

Cannabis is not a dangerous and addictive drug. Morphine is a dangerous and addictive drug. It is the main ingredient of heroin which I believe over the years has been a slightly bigger problem in your home city. Following your logic, should the widely used painkiller morphine be banned?
