Telling The Truth About Marijuana In Britain Will Get You Fired
Last week Britain’s top drug adviser, David Nutt, was fired after saying that marijuana, Ecstasy and LSD were less dangerous than alcohol. It’s the truth though. So let me get this straight, they hire this guy to be the adviser on drugs and when he does just that and keeps it real they fire him.
David Nutt’s comments have embarrassed the British government, which moved to toughen the penalties for possessing marijuana earlier this year despite protests from the British scientific community, which said the move was unjustified.
Nutt said he was disappointed by the move, telling Sky News television that it might have something to do with the upcoming general election, which must be called by the middle of next year.
“But politics is politics and science is science and there’s a bit of a tension between them sometime,” he told the broadcaster by telephone.
Britain’s Home Office confirmed that Nutt, a professor of neuropsychopharmacology, had been asked to resign and said it would be seeking a replacement shortly.
Why are the super powers of the world trying to keep the truth about marijuana silent? Is it because they KNOW that it being illegal is one of the biggest scams ever? Yeah I think that’s it. Don’t believe the hype. Marijuana is NOT a dangerous drug.
