| Message | Cigarettes can kill, marijuana and small amounts of alcohol can't. Drugs or amounts of drugs which can kill should not be legal to sell. Even alcohol must be regulated to prevent deaths. You cannot moderate cigarettes when they are legal. Sandra Blaise Leader of Parti de l'Impératrice Noire Assembly Member from Morbanaque |
