The very same logic that was applied to call Marijuana a gateway drug could also be applied to categorizing Milk a gateway drug to Whiskey. Should Milk be outlawed? Sure, marijuana is abused, but people also abuse bridges by jumping off of them ... should bridges be outlawed? amirite?

Basically all hard drug users use marijuana but not all marijuana users use hard drugs.

I'm really not seeing how milk can be a gateway to whiskey. Milk is not intoxicating.

Yeah, pretty sure no one's trying to get buzzed off milk.

Ahahaha you dumbshit! 3th graders?!!?!? I think you mean 3rd.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Wow I'm stupid, it's cause I typed "4th" then changed the 4 to a 3 but didn't realize to change the "th". Oh well I always hated thirth grade.

Out of curiosity do you have to try to be that big an asshole or does it just come naturally?

Maybe if they'd said coffee instead of milk...

Still invalid. Marijuana IS a gateway drug, most drug users are or have been marijuana users.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That doesn't mean that marijuana actually causes them to use other drugs, though.

This might be the worst marijuana argument i've ever heard

The problem is that none of the examples you cited have any altered-state effects, unless maybe you're lactose intolerant XD

You kinda, um, need bridges to cross like, a river or something. Milk gives you stronger bones, but marijuana kills brain cells. OP must of been high.

@1160980 (OnebadWhiteKid): use google my friends not what mommy daddy and the public education system has burned into your psyche. yes, this pothead makes the rest of us look stupid, but im considering theyre a troll. oh and btw: even if you refuse to google it and still think that weed should remain ilegal and it "kills brain cells" marijuana is not illigal for public health concern fyi.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Ok, first, learn how to use apostrophes and spell "illegal." Use google? Okay, half the people on the Internet are high stoners. Second, I don't go to a public school, so I don't receive "public education." Third, when used for health concern, it just eases the pain for cancer patients, it doesn't completely heal them. Instead of google (which isn't the best and truest thing in the world), actually talk to a pharmacist or someone who knows, not ill-informed stoners.

Well, a lot of things can kill brain cells, though I'll definitely admit that marijuana isn't necessary to survival, and that OP's argument is pretty flawed.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

All arguments for marijuana legalization are stupid imo, but this is the stupidest. You are an example of why it SHOULDN'T be legal.

How about; the government cannot restrict self-regarding actions.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

How about; Smoke from marijuana is EXTREMELY damaging to the lungs, so you're technically putting others in danger. And this post is stupid. Milk isn't alcoholic; marijuana IS a drug. Milk makes your bones stronger... Marijuana makes people do stupid things.

Marijuana helps people with cancer and glaucoma.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

it doesn't "help" them... in fact its just as detrimental to them as others, if not worse for them. it just eases their pain

actually marajuanna has positive effects on cancer patients to increase appetite so they get the vitamins and sugars needed to help with kemo and other such processes of eradicating the disease

This is stupid. Whiskey isn't illegal. Marijuana and other drugs are. Because I drink milk does not make me want to drink whiskey. People shouldn't do marijuana even if it's "harmless". It's still against the law to do so. Rethink your logic.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

if you're biggest argument is 'its against the law, so automatically its wrong!', you need to find a new argument. in most states, gay marriage is against the law, that doesnt make it wrong. im not saying marijuana is good, but if tobacco is perfectly legal, i see no reason why marijuana should not also be. oh wait, yes i do. the government cant tax it properly, so there would be no money made by the government.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I honestly can't take you seriously if you can't spell "your". I don't necessarily think that marijuana is bad. I just think that the OP does a poor job of making an argument. You need to chill out. It's pretty strange that you're defending a drug.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

im not defending it so much as i am saying that its not that government cares about the health of the people as it is that its so difficult to tax that its not even worth the governments time to try. if the government cared about our health, theyd make tobacco illegal as well. but of course, theyre making tons of money off of it. as for the 'you're' instead of 'your', i originally had a different sentence and i changed it but i forgot to change youre, so im deeply sorry that i have offended you. i dont know how much more i can chill out, its not like i was yelling at you. and im not in any way supporting the logic of the post, because its terribly wrong.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

you're an idiot.

I'm generally an advocate for making marijuana legal, but this argument is too terribly flawed to receive my support.

By this logic getting a tetanus shot would make me want to do heroin.

I agree that marijuana should be legal, but this is a dumb argument for why it should be.

Slippery slope fallacy.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Ahh yeah, I mean I agree with the green, but this is just making us smokers look stupid. People like you should keep quiet, its never going to be legal when youre helping convince anti-marijuana people it kills all of our brain cells.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Ok well I'm personally all for legalizing it but damn man you make a stupid ass arguement and really need to rethink your logic you're the reason smokers are always said to be uneducated and dumb when I personally have a 4.0 GPA and smoke nearly everyday which is pretty decent proof that its not the drug that makes you stupid its the parents

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Initially I agreed with your statement, until I realized just how nonsensical it is. I'm a strong supporter of cannabis legalization, but even I must point out that milk has nothing to do with whiskey. Your logic is very flawed.

If I didn't already disagree with most arguments to legalise then I would soon consider disagreeing after seeing this. Oh and as for earlier tobacco comment, see Australia's current news.
