All I can say is that anyone who advocates the use of pot indirectly advocates the use of drugs, period.
I would not wish my experience on anyone, I am still paying for it and will do for the rest of my life.
My sons first reality was when his 18 year old girlfriend died and his second reality was when he got arrested. he now has a criminal record.
It all started with pot! | I doubt you, douglas, could say that your son did not drink alcohol or perhaps he even smoke cigarettes. It is pretty hard to pin things on marijuana when there are other ingredients involved and the studies show that it is not the gateway drug it is made out to be. It probably didn't all start with pot! Probably drinking. It is just the drinking was accepted because it was legal. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence. |
