Mods, if you would please leave this in general for a while..seeing as this is the most active forum I would like people to have a gander at this if you don't mind.

I'm somewhat of an activist...and I get very emotional on the subject of marijuana..especially when I read things like at the DEA website..so I sent them a question..Give it a read. Oh yeah, still no reply. Come monday I'm going to send one back saying thanks for not caring about me or my life, it just shows that you have one mission, and it's not to HELP teens, it's to lie to them about marijuana and it being able to make people's lives better...

Here was my 'question' to Katie, which I got no reply..yet anyhow. it was the 4th of april..been 3 days.

"Yes katie, I'm 17 years old and I was in a car accident about a year ago. A few months afterwards I began experiencing back pain. I wake up every day with my back hurting. I used to take prescription painkillers. I was addicted to them, after a couple weeks of taking them, I found myself having to take more and more just to feel better until I stopped feeling better. I just got sick, any time I would try to take any pills. So I began looking on the internet. I learned that marijuana was very effective in eliminating pain without adverse side effects like those from prescriptions. It allows me to function normal in school and work because unlike with prescription pills, I can easily control my dosage to exactly what I need because I feel the effects within seconds. I use a vaporizer which eliminates all harmful carcinigens from the marijuana vapors, giving me only the therapeutic chemicals. I however live in one of the 38 states that do not have laws to protect people who benefit from the use of marijuana. I'm sorry, but the federal government provides 5 indidviduals with 300 marijuana cigarettes every month because they're in the federal medical marijuana program, now why can't they do this for me? Without it, my days would be unbearable. I know that if I get arrested I could be put in jail for a long time, but I can't do anything besides just hope for the best until I can move to one of the 12 states that recognize the medical benefit of marijuana, which maybe soon my legislators will care for me and the others who could possibly receive prison time for only wanting to feel better. Do you know anyone who is in the same situation as me?

Thanks Katie,

Marcus"
