   Off his Nutt

   THE youngest son of Professor David Nutt - sacked as government drugs   
   adviser - has posted pictures of himself on Facebook apparently smoking   
   dope.

   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.

   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.

   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.

   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!"

   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.
