I know that it is not the same a smoking pot. In my youth I had plenty of experiences with pot and it is a gateway drug. [/quote]
Most all of my acquaintances that used MJ (hey I grew up in the 70s, if you don’t have friends that do that, you don’t have friends in the 70s) never moved to anything stronger.
Maybe you’re talking about the other way around – people who use stronger drugs almost always started with MJ.
If that is the case, then consider the words of the late George Carlin: Mother’s milk leads to EVERYTHING!
