I stand by my opinion that the money could go to much more worthwhile research.

The point I made is that murder and rape are shown on TV on drama's several times a day on various TV channels we have these days - now some say that this causes a small minority to be violent and copy those crimes - again this point is something there are opposing strong opinions about. Just like the legalising drugs question.
Your saying that they shouldn't show this program on TV not only because it's a waste of money, but because kids will copy it and might try ecstasy because of it. When there is massive increased violence and stabbings etc - which could be linked to violence on TV and video games and so on!
So why is it OK to show all this violence on the cop drama's and horror films. But a little bit of drugs is wrong?
