Patrick Mercer:Break the culture of armed violence

[JRchase123]

its not a question of breaking the violence culture... its a question of legalising and regulating drugs... the war on drugs has and will continue to fail... 80% of all crimes in Britain are related to drugs...

All crime involving guns and knives are drug orientated. When the government tells the elites they can no longer import and cream of the profits from heroine, then may be things will change.

Misdirection I think, more likely coming from Iraq, Afghanistan. If no need for violence then why did he vote for war when he perceived no threat from Iraq? I thought Newark was close to his heart now it's Nottingham tomorrow somewhere else. Perhaps the rhetoric of the former disgraced shadow minister with no department to shadow and perceived little worth to his constituents, should be taken with a pinch of salt.
