Hello, My name is Lance Cpl. Hugh Gill. I am with a program called the Young Marines. It is a drug free healthy-lifestyle.It teaches kids ages 8-the completion of high school discipline and manners. The reason I am typing this is to inform you about the dangers of drugs. The two types of drugs are Downers and Uppers.

Uppers area kind of drug that makes you all hyper and fidgety. Some kind of the major drugs people use today are marijuana, met amphetamines, and cocaine. Sometimes these drugs make your emotions go up and down. If you do to much of anything even cigarettes you will get addicted on them. It can bring your life down dramatically.

Downers are a kind of drug that slows everything down. Some of the major drugs are crack, heroine, and Ecstasy. These kinds of drugs will make tired and drowsy. Downers are the kind of drug that you take when you're kind of mad at someone and you just want to get back them .

So basically I am just trying to tell you the dangers of drugs and not to do them. We learned that Downers and Uppers are bad in many of different ways. Uppers are kind of drugs that make you all fidgety and hyper. Downers are the drug that you take to slow it down a bit. So I'm trying to say not to do drugs, please it is bad for you and bad for the world.

Thank You,

Young Marine
