How many pop addicts do you know that went right to alcoholism?
Compare that to how many crackheads started off with weed as their first high. I'd say there's no comparison to which is more likely.

Like I said I'm not against legalization but I do feel that pot possibly being a gateway drug needs to be addressed before any decisions are made.
Hw many people took a hit of weed and went right to crack? It doesn't exist. You're dealing with flawed individuals that do those things, and they are looking For an escape from their life. And if weed isn't giving it to them, it's because they've got demons worthy of an exorcism, not because weed is a devil plant.
