Re-read the argument by John Triggs on page 19. Then fill in the
chart with five questions you could ask about the points he makes.
What the writer says
‘It is certainly less harmful to society
than alcohol.’ (lines 18-19)
‘A huge amount of police time is
wasted enforcing the laws on this
largely harmless drug.’ (lines 38-9)
‘By keeping cannabis illegal, a
booming business is left in the hands
the criminals.’ (lines 47-8)
‘Legalise it and most users will
instead nip down to the off-licence
for a packet of Marlboro Green or
Silk Cut High as a Kite, or whatever
the tobacco barons call their new
product.’ (lines 50-54)
‘People are a little more open about
smoking in pubs and cafes’ (lines 634)
