They get run down" - Aneurin Bevan, 1953 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:44:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: David Semple http://thoughcowardsflinch.com/2008/11/26/cannabis-capers/#comment-794 Fri, 28 Nov 2008 06:50:51 +0000 http://thoughcowardsflinch.com/?p=439#comment-794 Well, for a start, the issue isn’t hugely important to me. It’s intrinsically linked in many ways to socio-economic inequalities which I and others like me spend our time trying to fight. There’s only so much one person can do.

I support your right to put carcinogens and whatever you want into your body – but the truth is, I don’t think there will be a resolution to the drugs issue whilst we’re dependent upon the government to be a little liberal.

Even in Massachusetts, I suspect that in a few years the state legislature will overturn the decriminalization law.

Things won’t change until people stand up for their beliefs. Thank you for writing this blog, but give people suggestions about what they can do to change things. You can write to your representatives in parliament. Write letters to the editors of newspapers. Donate to or join groups formed around legalizing cannabis. Educate yourselves, and educate others. This nonsense has gone on far too long, and it is time to take action to change it.
