And mother's milk leads to everything. Study after study has debunked the "pot as gateway drug" theory.

You're right though! I believe that it's ether alcohol or nicotine that's considered the gateway.

As one said before. Pot is not a gateway drug. Nothing is actually a gateway drug. If someone does those drugs they are weak minded and would have done it without pot, alcohol, or drinking.

I honestly doubt someone sits there, smoking weed and says,"Wow, you know what I have a hankering for? Some crystal meth." I'm sorry, but I think if any drug or substance is a gateway it would be nicotine. It is so much more harmful than marijuana and I have no clue why it is even legal other than the fact that it is a multimillion dollar industry.

I honestly think that the only way weed could be a gateway drug, is if your dealer is an asshole and laces it with another, actually addictive drug. Or does that even count as being a gateway drug...

The reason smoking is legal is because the government realised that an addiction to nicotine is highly profitable when taxed correctly, and the effects don't necessarily effect the public in a violent way. Pot is illegal because of purely political reasons.

Pot is not a gateway drug. The decision and choice to go on and try harder drugs remains the sole responsibility of the individual.

I completely agree with you! I smoke pot, and never while stoned have I ever thought "You know what sounds good right now? Heroin."

Technically Sugar is more addictive than any other drug. This was prove in a study on lab mice.

You're an idiot

And what's wrong with being a pothead? I find it quite enjoyable.

The fact that most respectable jobs these days require drug tests, and even if they don't, if you ever get injured on the job you'll have to take a drug test. Unless you plan on being the typical stoner bitch and living off welfare...

I work and support myself, all while smoking weed. I'd rather be a stoned bitch than a judgmental prick any day.

A job that requires a drug test does not sound very respectable to me.

There is nothing wrong with weed; It is all natural. If you think there is anything wrong with it than you're a dipshit. Watch the documentary called The Union(it's on netflixs) and learn a thing or two if you're not completely narrow minded. If you want to classify anything as a "gateway drug" then look at alcohol. At least a third of the people that try hard drugs for the first time are under the influence o alcohol and wasted.

That's like saying "so and so was in a car accident. Serves him right for driving." Chill out man.
