Dear friend of drug law reform,

"Marijuana is Safer" offers an engaging mix of history, science, medicine, media critique, and just plain straight talk about the history of alcohol and marijuana use in America, the differing attitudes toward the two drugs, the rise of marijuana prohibition, and the effects the two drugs have on users and society as a whole. "Marijuana is Safer" is a book you can hand to your mother or your teacher or your preacher, to help them see the inescapable conclusion that marijuana should be legalized.
Your support will come at an historic and critical moment. A moment when Congress is moving on a wide range of important reforms to drug policy [13]. When the prohibition debate is reaching new heights [14]. But when despite it all the new drug czar continues to talk nonsense [15] like the old drug czar. I encourage you to join us today as we fight this important fight at this important time. [12]
Our ability to bring drug war injustices to the attention of major media [16], to promote policy change in Congress [17], to reach millions of people online each year [18] -- all of these are possible because of, and depend on, you.
We continue to offer our exciting new t-shirts that make the point about prohibition and the drug war. For a contribution [12] of $36, you can choose either of our new StoptheDrugWar.org T-shirts pictured to the right — "Prohibition Doesn't Work" or "STOP" (click on images for an enlarged view). For a gift of $60 or more, you can receive both t-shirts. For a contribution of $90 or more, you can receive both shirts and "Marijuana is Safer" as our thanks, or substitute any item from the StoptheDrugWar.org inventory [19].
What you and I and our friends are doing together is working. We can't back off now. By taking advantage of the opportunity we have during this pro-reform climate, we can change minds, change laws and, most importantly, change good people's lives.
Thank you very much,
David Borden
Executive Director, StoptheDrugWar.org (DRCNet)
