The man who was sacked by the Government for saying that ' Taking ecstasy is no more dangerous than an addiction to horse riding'.
I think either you didn't check this out or you preferred not to mention it as it would put a question mark over the so called independence of the report.
You weaken your own argument by doing this! In fact I think we can safely dismissed this as intentionally biased reporting

Professor Nutt is right - he is going off proper evidence not "knee jerk reactions". Where do you get your information that all drugs are killing people? From the Sun? Politicians who want to get voted in next time by being "tough" on drugs!
What about alcohol killed 25,000 to 200,000 people between 2000 - 04
Tobacco half a million dead between 2000 - 04
Paracetomol kills 150 people a year.
