(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); There seems to be a lot of debate over drugs such as marijuana being a gateway drug. And I decided to put together a informative thread about illegal drugs, legal highs, and everything in between. And hopefully this will inform you on which is worse... Marijuana or other drugs... and is Marijuana a gateway drug? If you think so then so is caffeine, tobacco, and cough medicine.

I would like to get into greater detail, as in chemical structure, but this is pretty good. Also hope you enjoyed this...

There is proof that legal drugs are worse then illegal drugs such as MARIJUANA!!! And Marijuana isn't a gateway drug in my opinion!
[multipage=My Opinions]
My opinion on drugs are that if you call Marijuana a gateway drug then so are legal drugs, cough medicine, Excedrin etc. I also believe that Marijuana isn't a gateway drug do to the fact that "Triple C" which is more addictive and has more deaths from overdose then Marijuana... and I have never heard of anyone overdosing on Marijuana!

I would love to hear your opinion on drugs etc... please don't flame if you disagree with me... I gave you basic facts.
[multipage=Links and Further Details]
Here are the links to the Wikipedia's for each drug listed. Gotta give credits to where they belong!!

^ Thanks again ihaxgames.

If you'd like further details please view those links!!! Also I will eventually add more drugs. But all in all, don't go hating on Marijuana because its a sin in the US.. its not even as bad as Cough Medicine...

Thanks for the health lesson. Im sure everyone is going to enjoy reading about how caffeine and cough syrup are going to drive them to heroin use.

I dunno bout you, but I sure as hell did

Yet again.. you didn't read the entire thread. Point is why bash on Marijuana being the worse drug out there... more people have died on a legal substance then on a illegal substance such as Mary Jane...

Wait a second.. really? Thankyou for enlightening me

:y: No problem.. thread is brash.. needs to be redone.. working on it etc. Should have added more details

There needs to be IQ tests as a requirement before joining this forum.

We really didnt need this..? :confused:

Marijuana isn't a drug. And it's not a ****in gateway drug.

I made this for xX___BMX___Xx or whatever his name was... Since he doesn't know anything about Marijuana. I think this would do better off in the Debate section anyway..
