I tried alcohol before I ever smoked weed, and now if I had to choose between the two, I'd stay with marijuana. It's not a gateway, though. Some people imply that marijuana changes your brain chemistry to seek out other drugs in general. It's stupid. I have turned down other off-topics while smoking, even.

Lol You can prolly tell I'm bringing back some older threads. Because I've said what I've wanted to say in the newer ones lol.

I think that it is a gateway drug. But I also think that it's very easy to curb your desire to try other things and stick to just mary jane.

I voted for the third option. because in the words of Dave Chapelle. "I dont do drugs. Just weed."

but also I dont think that weed is a gateway drug, I only know people who have tried harder drugs at my school, not people who actually do them. except for one guy, but he only uses it occasionally.

I think that it is a gateway drug only because of the point said earlier about the people who sell marijuana are usually not only selling marijuana.

Personally I have done different drugs but the one I enjoyed the most is the green leaf. I have done drugs such as xanax. When I started smoking I knew people who did xanax and I always said that I wouldn't do it. Then one night I decided to try it, because I heard it was a cool experience and it didn't have anything to do with marijuana. Thats just me and I'm still gunna stick with my original answer and say that marijuana is a gateway drug..... but it doesn't bother me because its your choice on what you do.

Weed itself is not a gateway drug. But a few of the people you meet while doing weed, may do other substances, and you could be influenced by them.

Wait stop right there, by your defenition, weed is a gateway drug, if you're tired of a 420 buzz and try somthing else for somthing better, then there you go.
