Junkie Jon?

Jon is always first in to attack my attitude to drugs. Why?

Jon, I have never taken any illegal substance. Have you?

    Here's another few factual queries that you could do with straightening out - and incidentally, your opposition to answering any straightforward question posed to you on this or any other topic is the reason I attack you. That, and clearly I'm a cannabis junkie, as you are insuinating (Hint: one sentence in this paragraph is not true).

    1. On what scientific basis do you believe that cannabis should be class A?

    2. Do you agree that someone pronouncing on harm of a substance on the human body should have some knowledge of science or pharmacology? Upon which knowledge or qualifications do you make such pronouncements of the harm of cannabis?

    3. Do you believe that all issues of science should be decided by politicians to the contrary of scientific evidence? To what other public policy issues would you extend this, and why?

    Experts are there to be on tap, not on top. Political decisions are for politicians, accountable within the parliamentary or municipal process as the case may be.

    And there is a lot more to this than science, never mind the class-cum-generational prejudices of certain people who might also happen to be scientists.

    I have never taken any illegal substance. Have you?
