Go, Rodney.

"Go Rodney." No, you don't hear that from me very often. But Rodney has come out in favour of ending the prohibition of P and cannabis - almost:
The Maori Party is at least consistent: they want to ban tobacco smoking because it’s addictive and kills.

The PM and the anti-smoking lobby are against the ban: they say it won’t work.

And the prohibition on P and cannabis does?
Bravo, Rodney! Go and tell him to keep it up, and to start shouting it from the rooftops. Perhaps ending the War on Drugs can become ACT party policy earlier than we thought?

  1. Cannabis make people dumber if smoked in very large amounts. But is very good to health if smoke in dayily basis.
    If I had smoked some, I wouldn't have spent 18 days in a hospital last month.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
