Ramsgate Farm Crop Fails

Farm in Whitehall road! have they got planning permission? I always find it interesting the obsession that we have with cannabis, yet how much is our local press devoted to tales fights and injuries as a result alcohol abuse.

Is it not about time that we grew up, why not allow the recreational use of cannabis. I am nearly 50 and because I do not break the law I have never taken cannabis or any other opiate and or hallucinogenic drug.

This country is full of hypocrisy on the one hand a whole industry is devoted to producing alcohol with little or no control which allows us as taxpayers to pay large sums of money to the police to deal with the ensuing violence and then waste valuable resources in our hospitals.

In in the same way that many users of alcohol are able to use this drug sensibly I believe it that cannabis users are similarly sensible.

Just to balance things up assuming that alcohol will always be freely available perhaps the pub trade could be billed on a weekly basis for a) policing their customers and b) the cost to the NHS. Maybe if that were the case publicans would be more responsible.

I think any way you look it drug abuse alcohol is by far the most damaging to our communities.

If proof were needed this web brogue was winning under the influence of half a bottle of California wine about three quid a bottle.

  1. Cannabis is a dangerous drug when used by idiots, therefore it should remain banned as there are too many fools who'll mix it's use with alcohol or who will drive under it's influence or aggravate underlying dormant mental health issues that then will become a problem.
