ok, i didnt read the whole thread so forgive if im repeating but marijuana is no gateway drug...
the only way it could possibly be persieved as such is due to the law of our perspective countrys... if weed was legal i would never have even come into contact with any other drugs, as i would get it froom stores/coffee shops... as it happens, the people that sell weed - being criminals - also sell speed, crack, heroin, pills... i hve even been offered free samples of the above - which i never would have been offered from a coffee shop!
if weed was legal, there would be even lesser link between weed and harder drugs.
i would also like to put across the arguement that alcohol is the greatest gateway drug...
it is the first drug most children try (wether a sip of ur dads beer or a pint in the pub) , its effects are more like hard drugs than maryjane - in that it creates an "up" high and pretty much renders users out of control - as does crack cocaine for example - where as weed just puts u on ur ass..
