having alot of money is a gateway to? drugs. We should stop making money
I like how the advertisement for me before this video was the Pasadena recovery center?
Its annoying how much you? smile the hole time , it kinda hurts my cheeks
girl, do you ever NOT smile ??? YOUR SMILING THE HOLE? FUCKING TIME !!!
If you have an addictive personality than weed is not to blame. 9/10 of people start out with weed because it’s cheap and easy to? come by in most locations. I’ve smoked it since I was 13 and I’m in my 20’s now. The last thing I want to do when I’m stoned is try heroin, coke, meth ect. I’ve done my fair share of drugs by choice not because I smoked weed. If and when I have kids I’d much rather them smoke weed than drink and pop pills.
If you had fun on weed, you are definitely going to be more interested in trying things like? pschyedelics or even things like diphenhydramine. They are pretty fun and I recommend them to everyone!
Except maybe diphenhdramine, it is a very scary trip because it bridges the gap between your dream state and reality. And let me tell you from personal experience….it is NOT as fun as it sounds.
But definitely try mushrooms, acid and all the other safe drugs. Weed is boring compared to them.
Yea I got my friends to smoke weed now we go on mushroom trips together. Gonna do Ayahuasca in a couple of days, we brewed it already so that should be amazing.
One of my friends recently tried cocaine, he said it was pretty awesome so I might try that as well.?
you? sure it wasn’t friends?
Drink and smoke, used to? smoke green. No corolation.
yeah…the “gateway theory” is just an excuse…. plain and simple…? and if you are afraid that marijuana is going to lead to other things… TAKE SOME FUCKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELF AND DON’T DO IT. If you cannot handle being high on weed, you have no business even THINKING about doing anything harder. In fact, you might even want to seriously contemplate complete sobriety. Bottom line:
Handle your high.
hahahahahahahaha. Ive been spending the whole day painting, shopping, and going to an orientation but you just brightened it? up!
You should re watch the video. The study she cited? indicated there was no evidence that marijuana lead to harder drugs. Did you notice on her correlation and causation sentence. The argument inferred here is that marijuana users are more likely than non users to go on to harder drugs because marijuana is under ground with hard drugs. Which she pointed out a statistic for in the video. You have to watch more than half the video though.
When the other side of the argument irrefutably counter the premise given by this video’s title, it is? a contradiction. When people have double standard, it shows bias. I don’t think pot should be illegalized as much as fire arms not because they are not harmful, but because I feel more regulation won’t do any good… Declaring them not harmful just sounds ridiculous.
Pot for me was most certainly a gateway drug. Still? going up the ladder of drugs as we speak!
Wish me luck everyone!
I love pot but hate calling it a drug. However, it is irrefutable that marijuana is a gateway drug. ALL DRUGS ARE GATEWAY DRUGS! If you grow up thinking “drugs are bad” and then you try a drug and find out that it isn’t bad, then you are obviously more likely to question whether or not all the other? drugs people told you were horrible are actually bad. IMO it is not up for debate: pot is a gateway, and that is good thing, because thinking for yourself is a good thing, ignorance is not.
It is completely contradictory the way this is presented. They claim it is not a gateway drug and then state that pot users are more likely to use other harder drugs. That is the definition of a gateway drug!
As a smoker, and an advocate for marijuana in general, I have no problem admitting that it IS a gateway drug and still have no hypocrisy in promoting its legalization.? Drugs have been demonized unfairly IMO; it is peoples’ behaviors and tendencies toward addiction that need investigation.
So in other words, it’s not the substance but the person abusing the substance.?
It isn’t contradicting to give the other side of the argument, it is a more fair view on a? situation as most things are bias but giving both views and arguments as she did means it’s less or a bias argument. And being bias just makes it easier to pick holes in the argument you give.
every? one who has a medical marijuana card or ever smoked pot disagrees with you.
