So a gateway drug like Pot is taken legally by the populace. It is not enough and people seek out a stronger replacement. So pot is sending people to more dangerous and illegal drugs. And your point is???
You can say the very same things about cigars, cigarettes, alcohol, prescription medications.
We learned a very valuable lesson with alcohol prohibition. Yet we think it will work with “illicit drugs.” When really, all that approach does is create a police state where our law enforcement views all of us as criminals, rather than neighbors.
Enough already. If someone is going to use drugs, legal or otherwise, they are going to do it.
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
Pot is a gateway drug because people lie to kids and tell them pot is just as bad as all the other drugs.
When they try pot and find out that they were lied to, they assume the same is true for all the other drugs and that’s where they get into trouble.
