Sadly society maybe heading that way. I am too old fashion, I still find the liberalization of society distasteful and agree with those who see pot as a gateway drug far more so than booze. Sticking it on a shelf is not the same as liquor.

But then we used to worry about such thing, not glamorize it. Why it seems the support for legalization of a drug has grown chronologically with how far the left has pushed the nation.

How is smaller government and greater individual liberty "liberalization"?

and agree with those who see pot as a gateway drug far more so than booze.

"Children who use marijuana are 85 times more likely to use cocaine than non-marijuana users. Children who drink are 50 times more likely to use cocaine than non drinkers." (http://www.sarnia.com/groups/antidrug/mjcnnct/addctn.htm) No support there for "far more so."

Sticking it on a shelf is not the same as liquor.

I don't understand what this statement means.

But then we used to worry about such thing, not glamorize it.

Selling something at WalMart is "glamorizing" it?
