[RC] [Consider This] Ecstasy and horse-riding don't mix, drug expertdiscovers - Endurance.Net - Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLFThis Prof Nutt is just that, a nut! If he's going to venture to compare something totally unhealthy to something completely healthy, i.e. horse riding, then he better include every other sport ever played because they ALL have their relative risks. Heck!! Might as well compare driving a car to taking drugs as well. ~Carrie Horsetalk.co.nz February 13, 2009 A British drug expert who drew comparisons between the risks of taking ecstasy and horse-riding continues to cop flak over his published comments. Professor David Nutt received a call from a displeased British Home Secretary after his views were published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, and now the British Horse Society has waded into the debate. Nutt, who is chairman of Britain's Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD), penned an article entitled "Equasy - An overlooked addiction with implications for the current debate on drug".
