To



describe it as bigoted is probably unfair, but a quick glance


indicates that it is extremely biassed, and frankly counts as


propaganda rather than fact. I am sorry, but the reason that the


reigning fanatics can get away with so much is that so few people


are capable of analysing data.

It's written by professionals who deal with the fall out. And some of

the study involved thousands of people. The comment on those studies

shows a lack of bias, imo. I rather think that the Royal College of

Psychiatrists has people working for it who can analyse data.

Importantly, too, few if any, hard drug user has not started without

smoking cannabis. I'll pass, thanks. We know a young person in their

30s who was 'allowed' to smoke cannabis in their teens and has now been

diagnosed schizophrenic. There is no other person in their family with

that illness. For me, the evidence is strong enough and appears to be

building.

Guess it was probably written by the same type of "professional" who warned us all about Iraqi WMD's?

Amusing thing about those who talk out of their arses about drugs, is that most do drugs like alcohol and tobacco themselves, which are to all intents and purposes far more damaging than cannabis, but bring the crooks running the country billions in tax revenues.
