Matthew Perry vs Peter Hitchens regarding Drug Courts & prosecution for drug offenses on BBC

[stevenleser]

Peter Hitchens is Christopher Hitchens' younger brother

1. Peter is a hyper conservative superstitionist whose own brother died from alcohol abuse realted

issues while Peter stood aside making up theories to support his conservatism. Perry knows more about the issues at hand and it is too bad Christopher did not have him for a brother instead of a pompous ass.

2. I didn't know much about Peter before seeing this video. He really is bonkers and is referred to

as bonkers quite often in Britain, according to my research today.

He believes the Conservatives in Britain are not right wing enough. This video showed his views to be far, far out there. The idea that greater punishment for drug offenses would stop people from trying drugs in the first place is ridiculous.

3. Peter Hitchens Is Repellant

Hitchens pompously said that the AMA was wrong - then accused Perry of being pompous and demanded that he show proof of what Perry knew by living it!

4. It's hard to believe he shares similar DNA with Christopher.

Although I will say this, it is clear he is well read and confident in his positions. I guess that much is similar. But combined with his, I like your term, "repellent" views, it's really ugly.

5. He Is Living Proof of the Saying

The fool speaks with confidence while the wise one admits he doesn't know everything.
