He's now on a prescription depressant and cleans toilets at a truck stop near my home town and he lives with his mother. I would argue that marijuana has ruined his future and that it definitely destroyed our friendship.
im really sorry to here about your friend, but i still believe its BS
i guess statistically you can say that it is
but i bet every crack head started with pot, its the easest cheapest drug to get, but like cybrsamurai said
"It may be statistically a "gateway drug" but there are probably reasons for this fact... Jumping to a conclusion like smoking pot will force you to smoke crack, is fairly silly."

and i think if you move to harder drugs, its not because of marijuana, its because you have problems. i know alot of people that do it pretty much everyday and they;ve never used anything else,sure curiosity kicks in and they've tried a bit of this and that, but their common sense tell them NO.


would it make everyone feel better that marijuana was once legal, and during prohabition they banned it.
