Letter: The Gibsons just wanted to help Liam Nicholls & Tricia Hepple News and Star, Carlisle Wednesday 04 Jan 2006 The Gibsons just wanted to help WHY is the legal system in this country so unfair? There are known sex offenders living in our midst and we are not allowed to know about it because it is against their human rights. What about the human rights of all the people with MS who have had their supply of cannabis chocolate cut off and are now forced to seek out drug dealers who could very easily rip them off and leave them in an even worse position? And what about the rights of the Gibsons and Marcus Davies who had their entire defence disregarded because the law had been changed? These people have unselfishly distributed the cannabis chocolate because they felt it was providing essential relief to people who truly needed it, and who better to do so than Lezley, an MS suffer herself who has benefited first hand from the medicinal properties of cannabis. As members of the Gibsons’ family we have seen the work that goes into the production of this chocolate and the joy that has resulted in knowing that it is helping other sufferers in some small way. We have also seen the heartache that is a result of the production of the chocolate stopping, and the ordeal Lezley has been put through in the courts. Mark and Lezley have never tried to hide what they do and have openly campaigned for the legalisation of cannabis for medical uses. It seems that it is OK to be stopped on the street and found to have cannabis for personal recreational use but not to take it if it helps to alleviate the symptoms of an illness. Lezley, Mark and Marcus should be commended for what they have done not punished. Liam Nicholls & Tricia Hepple Carlisle http://www.newsandstar.co.uk/opinion/viewarticle.aspx?id=451587
