PROHIBITIONIST AGENDA
Roy Clancy must be very happy he can quote whichever portion of a report
that he likes to further his own prohibitionist agenda. ("Smoked out," July
17.) Can Clancy tell us it is OK for a person's life to be ruined, their
prospects for travel and employment limited, because they decided to try a
less harmful alternative to alcohol?
Clancy is kidding himself that cannabis use is not wanted by society. How
else would he explain survey results indicating that up to 50% of the
population has tried cannabis? He is sadly out of touch and incredibly
arrogant.
