Against Legalizing Marijuana

You know, you can preach about all the benefits of marijuana all you want, and claim that it doesn't do a damn unpleasant thing to you, and how just because you smoke pot doesn't mean that you're going to do "worse" drugs, like cocaine or meth ... The REALITY is that marijuana is a gateway drug ... and for all the stoners who couldn't be bothered to attend class because they would rather be stoned, that means that when you start small, you eventually stop getting that high that makes you feel so good, and you start increasing your dose. And when that stops working, you try something harder. You can pretend that "pot" is perfectly safe, and all it does is relax you ... if that's true, then prove it by stopping. Stop for a week, and see how your body reacts. Guaranteed, every single person addicted to meth or cocaine tried pot first. And it's not just "uptight" people who are against marijuana being legalized. Believe it or not, there are other ways to have a good time. It's something called a natural high ... endorphins? Ever heard of it? I personally have no problem if someone wishes to pollute their own body with "weed" ... it's your business. But keep it YOUR business. Medical marijuana may help with PAIN, but it sure as hell doesn't cure all cancers.
