I believe Dan40 made the comment that pot may not be addictive ... and I agree with that , however , I also feel it is a gateway drug for the hard stuff . A good friend`s son started off on pot and then decided he wanted more and stepped up to crack . I watched that boy go from a fun , productive young man of 180 lbs to a non functional scarecrow of about 130 lbs . He chased me down one night ( took him 5 miles to catch me ) just to "borrow " $10 for "gas" . He also almost destroyed his parents and wiped out what savings they had trying to help him .
I have ZERO tolerance for drugs and anyone who uses them !
Yes , I agree that there are some people who are predisposed to abuse drugs/alcohol ... but drugs have been proven time and again to be so destructive , why even try them ?.... and I grew up in the 60`s drug culture , and never had anything stronger than alcohol ... and , yes , I know that is also a "drug " . Today , I drink very little , other than a glass of wine or a COLD beer after cutting the yard . I can`t stand the pain the next morning of the good time I think I had .
