Oh I won’t argue that point, but it still does not change my original post. There are other reasons that is the case though. If you are lied to about one substance, people wonder if they aren’t lying, or at best overstating the perils, about other substances.

Started smoking pot and soon quit a 15 year cig habit. Also quit drinking. I'm respected and not part of a vague group such as the one you sort of cite.

If you want to nip inebriation in the bud then arrest five year old girls for spinning around. (All female pot addicts started out on the gateway high known as dizzy.)
