Cannabis is the most frequently used drug, with around 3 million having used it in the last year. In 2002/03, the total number of violent offences in England & Wales was 2,781,000 Should we allow violent offences just because the figures are high too? It would save money and reduce overall crime figures. Of course not, same with legalising drugs. It is a problem which needs to be stamped out, not toleratred. (Figures from the Home Office)

I already have one son with a burned out brain due to drug abuse twenty years ago.Drug taking is not something you can dabble in and think you can give up when you like.My son has been clean for years but still has flash-backs,sweats where he soaks the bed and paranoia,and these are just a few of the problems he lives with daily.He deeply regrets his stupidity when he was a teenager and in his twenties.It is now too late,the damage has been done.No DRUGS SHOULD NOT BE LEGALISED.I have seen the results of drug abuse-Rose

There is much debate on the subject and a TV programme on it last night. I reckon drugs should be legalised on a restrictive basis. It will certainly cut drugs related crime down and help take the huge business from the criminals. It is obvious the current system is just not working!!! Martin
