Dear Mr. President,
Enough with the lies. The war on drugs is a failed attempt at controlling a harmless substance. Thousands of inmates are serving time for a victimless crime. You have seen the polls, over 50% of us as Americans believe that Marijuana should be legalized. You have seen the statistics from the NIDA. It is clear it is time for a change. Dont be another hypocritical president, we have had one the last time around... Stop this ridiculous "Reefer-madness" hysteria which is still being preached from the government. We know it to be untrue. If you really wanted to forbid a substance based on its damaging properties, then why is alcohol and tobacco still legal? We have seen the effects of abuse from both substances (which have a higher abuse, and dependance rate than marijuana). We the people have had enough. We pay our taxes, we fight, and die for this country, and yet we are harassed and have our lives ruined by the very people we pay for to protect us. End this useless, tax-money wasting fight on marijuana. It is time for a change. Be the one to make it for the better of our country.
Doubt it will mean anything, but it never hurts to try.
