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 want to tell you propaganda spreading, ignorant, fascists to stop spreading false information. Did you know cigarettes and alcohol are worse than marijuana, and that there has been 0 deaths from marijuana in history? In all of this time I have been smoking, I have never caused trouble, dropped out from my sophomore/junior honor classes I am taking as a freshman. I like to give my friends advice while I'm high. Usually they tell me it works very good. Maybe you should focus on harder drug propaganda, such as crystal meth and heroine. Don't waste our tax dollars on this ignorance. The more people know about the truth, the wiser they become. In reality, you are dumbing people down with false information. Let our people know the truth. The nation is based on honesty. Is this the nation you want? A nation filled with people who believe the false information they are told? What if a group of people like yourselves said that fast food is the best thing for you because it is cheap, and contains most of the food groups. Then these people said you need to eat more to be healthy. Well now they believe you, and everyone is incredibly unhealthy, and we have people dying. Your advertising is going to kill the nation. Marijuana can help AIDS patients live longer. They lose their hunger, and refuse to eat. What do you do? Give them a nice joint filled with Cannabis Sativa. They WILL eat. What if this patient is a loved one? What will you do, let them die faster? No, of course you won't. You will want them to live. If the government legalized marijuana, they could focus on more important things, such as hard drugs, gang violence, rape, murders, serial killers, etc. The list goes on. We could put those people in jail, and take a harmless man who wanted to take a little hit out of jail.

Marijuana laws are not laws. They are jokes.

I really want to hear their reply to this. Post it as soon as they write back, if they do.

ps, Im top of my chem and english class, so I agree that it is total bullshit they are spreading.

I'm going to check my email right now, even though I doubt they replied. I'm trying to practice writing every chance I get because I want to go to college to major in either English, Philosophy, or business. English class is a complete waste, all we do is read Romeo and Juliet and review literary terms.

In that case I have a small suggestion: the analogy you made wasnt comletely parallel. Even though you got the point across, having parallel analogies is always better.

I'll try that next time. I just kept thinking of different ideas each time I wrote something, so it is disorganized. If I am to write something about this for school, I will definetly revise it.

[konqrr]

Well this actually gave me an idea to write a letter to them too.

Good job on the letter still, very good for something written quickly.

What is their e-mail?

I'd love to send them one.

[TheFatKid]

You go on their website, and go to "Contact Us" at the bottom, and it gives you an email form. I think if we can get enough people on this website to send something, it WILL make a difference.
