I find there are 2 types of pot-smokers:
1) Those who smoke in moderation, for "enhancement" purposes. The social smoker. Not more than splitting 1 or 2 joints a few times a week, month, whatever. The goal in itself is not necessarily to get F-ed up, but rather to change one's perception for a few hours here and there.
2) Those who smoke with the sole purpose of getting as F-ed up as possible. Smoke until they can't speak. Even if it's "only once in a while", this is the type of thing that can get you in trouble.

It's the same thing for me as alcohal... Going out for drinks and get blitzed once in a while with your friends, blowing off some steam, this is a healthy thing to do (in my opinion). But if you are drinking for the sole purpose to get as F-ed up as you can, as quickly as you can, and as often as you can, then you're in trouble. My take anyway.
