I sent this email to Above the Influence.

The problem NOW is still that the majority of lawmakers didn't have the prevelance of marijuana when they grew up and DON'T understand that it is basically harmless. So, in their mind it is ILLEGAL and that is the way it is.

Indeed. They're were brought up on the properganda, so they cant change. Well, not many of them. But kids these days can research anything, and alot of them know the facts about it.

So im hoping when the younger generation become PM's and Presidents they'll turn the countries we live in around and make them bearable.

LIP Reviewed by LIP on 01-15-2007. I sent this email to Above the Influence. I wrote it up pretty quick cuz I had nothing else to do. Its kind of disorganized, but whatever. I've been smoking marijuana since I was 12. I am now 14, going on 15. I use the plant responsibly, and don't abuse it. I am not lazy. I am in the top 10 percent of the freshman class. Marijuana has given me a different outlook on life. It helps me study important ideas and philosophies. It cures the pain from the aches I constantly get in my body. My lungs are perfectly fine also. In all, I Rating: 5

They're funded by the ONDCP, they have a far reach, and they're not going to change their approach. I believe there still may be something in congress to revoke funding for things such as these abovetheinfluence commercials, but I'm not quite sure. Here's my thread about what I sent to them and then what they did after I e-mailed them. And indeed, us sending them e-mails just makes them worry more and more that the young generation is not going to sit and be lied to..we're much smarter than that. Trust me, it does worry them when we send them something. On another note, they will not bust us. There's nothing that they would gain by doing so, and they're not going to. Instead they put different things on their website and commercials such as.."Right now, someone may be telling your kid the wrong thing about marijuana..talk to your kids before someone else does" blah.
