Dear Mrs. Colls.

I do infact smoke Marijuana. I enjoy the substance as it is not uncommon among youth. 95% of the youth in my grade have consumed cannibus. There is stores all over Vancouver dedicated to the love and legalization of Marijuana. In 4 States in the US it is legal and used for medical purposes. My mother and other friends are fully aware of my " Addiction ". Which brings me to my next point. THERE ARE NO addictive products in Pot. It has the potential to be mentaly addictive dependent on the person, but is unlikley.it is 100% not physically addictive.

The fact that is a plant makes it safe. If you are christian re read the bible please. It makes references to " The sacred herb". That reference is made to marijuana. There are religions devoted to it. It is 100% legal in Amsterdam. Would the governments really legalize a killer addictive drug? No, Not at all. It is actually on its way to becoming legal in BC, and Canada. Google "BCMP".

Not only does it help me sleep at night, it controls my ADHD and keeps me calm. Never have i touched another drug, and never do i plan to. Alcohol rarely touches my system eather. I consume Cannibus around 5 times a week. And i have never been healthier! i am not ashamed or scared of people knowing that i smoke marijuana, as it has made me a better person.

Before Marijauna hit my life i was uptight and ignorant. Since its enterence i have discoverd that the world has the power to be a peaceful place, all people need to do is relax. Which people will do on there own time. Im not here to encourage the use, but rather inform people of its harmless'ness. If you do a little bit of research you will realize that over 50% of people in BC smoke the herb.And that NONE have died.

Marijuana is not a drug, but infact a herb. Kids like myself with ADD and ADHD dont need to be rotted with riddilen and other harmful chemicals. All they need to do is smoke some weed. And they will be chillaxed. So Mrs. Coll's. I strongly suggest you do some research and stop labelling Cannibus as a harmfull, addictive and terrible drug. If you give me your email i am more then happy to send you movies and articles online that prove its harmless'ness. Have a nice night.

Regarding the 1st post

No offense, but you sound addicted.  It is more addictive than people think.  An addict isn't aware or even concerned with the notion that he/she may be addicted.  They are mentally, genuinely in state of perspective that everything is perfectly normal. I can say so because I smoked hardcore for a year!! but needed motivation and a broader emotional spectrum again.  Life felt...fuzzy, and I didn't notice til I backed off of it, just 2 weeks.  Make 2 weeks and the withdrawal goes away and so does the urge.  I got diagnosed with ADD 2 weeks ago and have been taking Ritalin, it's hardly strong at all but I've never felt so focused and determined on reaching my goals.

The harmful effects on your brain will surface in many many years, whether it be anxiety, alziemers, whatever.  NOT NECESSARILY, some people will reach a ripe old age perfectly healthy regardless, BUT you're puting your health AT RISK.  Smoke inhalation is never good.  5 times a week sure, is so fun I know, but if and when you ever got lung cancer or something, the regret would be devestating.

I'm not anti-weed.  I still smoke couple times a month.  Like as anything, it's safe in good moderation.  Moderate does not mean "medium" either.

Just saying.  Be careful.

You are an idiot.
It is legal to be distributed in licensed stores, just like alcohol in the US. It is legal to smoke it inside these "coffee shops", but not out in the street i believe. And im pretttttty sure I am correct on this seeing as I was in Amsterdam about a week ago.

Theres a difference when your handing a letter to a fucking 45 year old women trying to make her believe weed is alright.

OP, that was horrible.
50% of BC smokes weed. Yeah right.
Maybe next time you should try to back your facts up with proof.

u might wanna take out the "ignorance" part and "peaceful place" part. they'll most likely take teh ignorance part as an indirect way of u saying ur better than them. and the peaceful place part makes it sound like you're goin in hippie mode. that's exactly how they'll take it as

Yeah it was poorly written for an adult but you're going into 10th grade right
so it's fine.
It's good that you're acting maturely about smoking weed at such a young age.

I live in Vancouver. I smoke weed once in a while. I am 18, and going to university next year to do Engineering. Just so nobody asks me "how old are you anyway?" or "You probably didnt do shit in highschool"

I would guess that maybe 20% of the people in my graduating class smoked weed on a regular basis (say, once every 2 weeks). Around 50% had tried it I would think.

"The fact that is a plant makes it safe. If you are christian re read the bible please. It makes references to " The sacred herb". That reference is made to marijuana. There are religions devoted to it. It is 100% legal in Amsterdam. Would the governments really legalize a killer addictive drug? No, Not at all. It is actually on its way to becoming legal in BC, and Canada. Google "BCMP"

The fact that it is a plant does ABSOLUTELY does not make it safe. Tobacco is a plant. Poison ivy is a plant. I would speculate, even though I have absolutely no training in this field whatsoever, that there are many poisonous plants that are not safe for human consumption.

And yes, the governments would absolutely legalize killer addictive drugs. Alcohol and tobacco are both addictive. And many people die from tobacco and alcohol related deaths. I would hardly say that BC is on its way to legalizing marijuana. And just because we have the BCMP doesn't mean shit. We also have a Sex Party, and they even made it onto the Provincial Vote, the BCMP did not.

"Of coarse it kills braincells, and is probably not entirely good for you, but never has anyone died from it. Tons of people die each year from alcohol and cigarettes, yet there have been no reported deaths from marijuana."

Smoke inhalation has many adverse medical effects, regardless of what kind of plant is burned to produce it. And there are many reported deaths from lung cancer etc. It's bad for you. And most of the time its unfiltered.

"Just because people smoke marijuana doesn't mean they will be homeless and be lead to addictive drugs in the future. That is the case for some people, but not if they stay strong and know their boundaries."

I dont believe thats what parents are scared of. I think theyre more frightened of their kids underachieving in high school, and not living up to their full potential in life so that once they've stopped smoking weed, they still have a 65% in Math 12 because "Who the fuck needs to know logs anyway?". Im not saying thats always the case, but thats their fear.

"You truly are the reason i have little friends, thank you."

I would hardly suggest blaming someone for your lack of friends, or that your friends are small in stature, while trying to convince them to like you more.

Yes I used the word absolutely several times, and my grammar is not perfect. And no I didnt back up any of my opinions with referenced facts. But I didn't write this for professional review, its an opinion piece.

I smoke weed, I enjoy it, but Im just arguing your points so you can be more prepared to continue your debate slightly better prepared, so that you can be represent yourself and young people who blaze in general. Good luck, hope you get to hang out with your friends now.

You're absolutely wrong in saying that Marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is both an herb and a psychoactive drug. While it is specifically the Delta-9-THC that makes you high, there are other cannabinoids and other chemicals in Marijuana that have other effects.

Oh and by the way, you're retarded.

You sound pretty uneducated and misinformed. You gave a pretty bad name for yourself and anyone who is seriously dedicated to legalization. You should probably smoke less weed. Smoking a lot of weed is often a bad idea.

Wow.  I really didn't realize how bad NSG has gotten.  I have been surfing only cults for at least a year now, and wow, this is worse than I remember.  Not just the letter, but all the responses as well.  Jesus christ, this is going to be my last visit for a long time.  Dude, I respect that you wrote a letter, but as I'm sure you know, if you want to be taken seriously, you need to communicate coherently.  This letter will probably fail, but that doesn't stop you from writing a good one and actually accomplishing your goal. Imagine what your friend's mom would shit if you had actually written something factually accurate.

Did you not learn how to make paragraphs in highschool? and as for the not having to prove yourself to ns while saying you got 12/12 on your SAT: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA EPIC FAIL! I dont even have to explain why this is an epic fail, your genious brain should be able to figure that out. You see, you think that your so awsome and smart by correcting his spelling ( on the internet) and correcting his facts but you have your facts wrong! the fact is no one gives a fuck about how "smart" you are and how bad his spelling is. you made a complete fool out of yourself! nice job there buddy!

Nice man, but I highly doubt marijuana will become legal in Canada or even BC where I live part time. Even though they are talking about it, there are too many politicians that are against it to be made completely legal. Now you can go smoke legally in places (vapor lounge, downtown vancouver) and there are some other places in Toronto etc. but that is because the owner of vapor lounge is a politician for the Marijuana party supposedly he found a bunch of loopholes so the law cant really do anything if you go and smoke there but 100% legal, no way.

are you blind or something? i posted 3 separate posts because i quoted 3 different people. one post for each quote, if you cant figure that out. its much easier for people to see what im replying to when i quote someone, good try though. the sat essay is the only widely graded work of writing that most of NS has taken. im obviously not gonna say "i got an A on an english paper" or something cause no one else here has my english teacher.... as for providing a piece of graded work in the first place, its the easiest way to show that im not a complete retard when im trying to write. im not correcting his spelling you dipshit, if you can read then you can see that im correcting his overall writing. spelling, grammar, and general shittiness of an attempt at persuasive writing. as a fellow supporter of legalization of marijuana, i care about how shitty his writing is. his work presents a horrible image of blazers; he comes off as an uneducated idiot, using words like "chillaxed" in a formal letter to a mother. honestly, what kind of a word is chillaxed to be using in formal writing?

nice try on trying to rip on everything i do though
