A majority of house republicans and conservatives still, to this day, have failed to acknowledge the beneficial medicinal properties of marijuana. These are the same people who pledge to arrest the sick and dying, like John McCain.

Ignoring the facts and calling something evil is unfortunately still acceptable in today’s day and age.

MJ will be legalized when a majority of the Congress, the Senate, and the President vote in favor of legalization. What if each interested person spent five minutes making sure his or her Congressperson, Senators, and President vote for the changes he or she wanted? You don’t have to travel or organize a rally or spend much money (just a few bucks for stamps). What it’s going to take is a steady stream of letters to each Congressperson, each Senator, and the President. Here’s how to get them on board:
1) Go to https://forms.house.gov/wyr/welcome.shtml to get the name and address of your Congressperson. This will take less than a minute. Do it now and you’ll have it out of the way.
2) Write the letter. Spend at least two or three minutes on it, check the spelling, and read it out loud to yourself to see if it makes sense. (Do this while your in a sensible frame of mind,). You don’t have to be a great writer; just stick to the point and keep it short, i.e, not more than one page.
3) Find friend to write a letter, too. Keep some writing paper, pens, envelopes and stamps handy so you can write together whenever you have company. This will encourage each other!
4) Repeat the process at least once a week. Make it your personal mission to do two things: Get a letter like this into the hands of your Congressperson, each Senator, and the President, every month (that’s four letters a month), and get some friends to do the same. SERIOUS NOTE from the world of politics: It only takes a dozen letters to create the impression of significant public interest; an elected official getting a dozen letters a week will really feel the public presence.

The Prohibitionists say mj leads to lack of motivation. Is it true, or will a few interested folks take this on and actually get this process moving?

Marijuana prohibition is an outright assanine policy that our ignorant government refuses to change.Doctors have todl me that marijuana is safer than booze or cigs.Legalizing marijuana would have vast economic and domestic advantages.If you could buy pot at a store it take it off the black market and woudl generate revenue that could be used for programs that would actually benefit America.Why not legalize pot and use the tax revenue to fund universal healthj care for Americans.It is a fact that there is a demand for marijuana and it is also a fact that marijuana is relatively harmless(talk to your doctor).No one has ever died as a direct result of marijuana smoking.People have died because they’ve smoked marijuana and done something stupid however,you should not catch a buzz off of something if you can’t control it.
