I don't want to turn this into a debate on the evils of drug abuse. As I've said, I fail to see the advantages to anyone of using drugs. Sorry it just doesn't wash with me. And I maintain that anyone who is caught in possession is bound to have a softer message on the subject, else why would they have them in the first place? For someone else's use? oh come on... So if this teacher has accepted a caution (and he would have had to accept it) then how likely is it that the bloke will deliver the message that drug use is bad news? The fact that some might do occasional grass and live non-addict lives is irrelevant, no?
BTW I don't read the Daily Mail
