Smoking the newspaper

Yesterday, the Swiss Parliament refused to decriminalise cannabis. Today, the headlines of Le Temps read:

Drogues: où est passé le courage des politiciens ?

(Drugs: where did the politicians’ courage go?)

I wish I saw it sooner because I would have liked to stick up my own poster next to it:

Drugs: where did the journalists' common sense go?

Anyway, if there are enough people working at Le Temps who think cannabis should be decriminalised for them to write such a headline, then it explains the increasing number of typos they’ve been making recently.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Coding Ninjas, for they are subtle and quick to anger.
