      XPost: rec.drugs.cannabis, uk.legal, uk.politics.drugs       XPost: uk.rec.drugs.cannabis       From: drjohn@NOSPAM.hotpotmail.com              Noticed at Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:11:26 +0000: Big Les Wade informed us:              > Have you still got a cached version?              Here's the Sun's version from my cache, I don't have the Mail's version.              Off his Nutt              By JOHN COLES              Published: 14 Nov 2009       Add a comment Add a comment       THE youngest son of Professor David Nutt - sacked as government drugs       adviser - has posted pictures of himself on Facebook apparently smoking       dope.              Nutt junior ... in Xmas hat       Nutt junior ... in Xmas hat       SWNS              Free-thinking Steve Nutt, 24, also appears ZONKED in other snaps on the       site, where he treats web fans to disturbing theories and sick jokes.              His bizarre rants emerged last night after his dad claimed cannabis,       ecstasy and LSD are safer than booze and fags.              They heap further embarrassment on the 58-year-old professor, who was       controversially given the boot after accusing ministers of "distorting"       scientific evidence about drugs.              High-eyed ... gazing up at sky       High-eyed ... gazing up at sky       SWNS              He declared that cannabis carried a "relatively small risk" of making       those who use it psychotic.              From the evidence on Facebook, his criticism of the drug being upgraded       from a "class C" to a "class B" peril could well chime with his lad.              Nutt junior even comments on his father's sacking, declaring: "Steve Nutt       thinks his dad is probably more famous than he'll ever be, BARRING A       TERRORIST ATROCITY THAT IS... "              Terrorism is a theme that regularly crops up in his messages.              Shockingly, instead of sticking a portrait of himself in his "profile"       photo slot like most Facebook users, his image is of an orange labelled       "product of Israel" - one half of which is a GRENADE.              Smoke ... puffing away       Smoke ... puffing away              Barely days after Prof Nutt was sacked as chair of the Government's       Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs, the top academic admitted: "I'm       sure my children have tried drugs. In fact, some have told me they have.       But I'm not as concerned about this as I am about alcohol."              It was not known if the professor at London's elite Imperial College has       been privy to his daughter Lydia's Facebook pages.              Photos show her and girl pals cavorting with a bottle of spirits in hand -       and were uploaded two years before she turned 18.              Meanwhile older lad Johnny, 26, has posted photos of himself prancing       NAKED in the snow in Sweden.              Dad ... Prof David Nutt       Dad ... Prof David Nutt              Many of the foul-mouthed messages on his party-loving younger brother's       site are too offensive to print in a family newspaper.              But they can be seen freely by anyone in what is called the "Bristol       network".              He describes his interests as "the stuff other people list under       'sociopathic tendencies' when they have their friends sectioned."              In one anarchic tirade, Nutt - who is believed to be a student in London -       demands: "Bring down the govornment, they don't speak for us."              Another dismisses the war in Iraq as old hat. It declares: "Lets butcher       some Iranians... they bleed bettar."              He also jokes about mental illness and prostitution.              On October 25 he wrote: ''I'M ONLY WORKING HERE, COZ I STALK YOUR F******       MOTHER!"              Advertisement              Sniggering              And on November 6 he was quick to laugh at the horrific mass shooting by a       US soldier at Camp Hood in Texas.              Nutt went online, sniggering: "Come on Obama, you have to have a sense of       irony, he was doing what he was trained to, he just got pointed in the       wrong direction."              Asked about his Facebook ravings, Nutt told The Sun: "None of your damn       business."              He also came up with one of his trademark far-out theories - accusing us       of bribing a pal to send in a picture of him smoking a roll-up ciggie.              j.coles@the-sun.co.uk              Read more:       http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2729905/Drugs-professo       s-son-in-spliff-pic-on-net.html#ixzz0X6KeK8Ao              --       John Watson       London              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
