You can use some of it if you want.
yea you need more facts!
like: 10,000 acres of hemp produces 40,000 acres of paper pulp
so has anyone here actually had a letter on a pro pot subject printed?
It doesn't matter, most people don't have the opportunity to get a letter printed because they don't write letters to editors.Quote:

Letters to the editor should be plainspoken. They should also be short. But most importantly they should persuade - your letter doesnt really do that. Also, what is the point of persuading people who agree with you? Thats just a love fest. You need to pitch it to the people who DONT agree. Lets read your letter from the point of view of a conservative 'murrican who voted for Bush....

Dear Editor,
Since marjuana is now the number 8 cash crop in
washinton state, the time has come to legalize this
benificial herb.

Why? So what if lots of ppl grow it? Lots of ppl do stupid things - does that mean we should cave in to them. Anyway, its still the demon weed and will turn nice young girls to life of crime and prostitution

It's not only just for getting high, it helps the sick
and you can make anything that can be made of wood,
plastic, or oil out of it[QUOTE]
So what? we have wood - and replacing wood with hemp would mean vast tracts of forest land would be given over to hemp. We have plastic and medicine for the sick. How does this justify legalizing this extremely dangerous drug?
Hunh? You are making threats? Well I am not impressed by warnings from some pothead (who cant even spell "marijuana" properly) and I doubt if the Federal Government is much worried either.Quote:

erm sorry about that typo in the last sentence, "opinions without arguments to back it up"
I like it. It's short and simple. Maybe they'll print it. Usually, though, it's best to send letter in response to articles, because they're more likely to print responses. Good job :thumbsup:
okay so I had to personally contact the letters editor, and I found out that it was just in a stack of letters they had chosen to print.
but nowadays they get so many letters that it takes a couple of days to show up.
