Davebarry109, are you back again with more misinformation? If cannabis is a gateway drug, why aren’t there more cocaine and heroin users? Since 1960, an estimated 107 million Americans have tried cannabis. 37 million have tried cocaine and only an estimated 4 million have tried heroin in the same period. Why aren’t there more of these users?

I have spoken with accredited drug and addiction counselors, whose valid research debunks your simple gateway argument time and again. You also want us to believe there isn’t ONE Rhode Islander in prison right now for possession of cannabis? Not one???

We cannabis consumers already feel good about ourselves, Davebarry109, and no “pot head” name calling by you will change that fact. What will change in the future is the stigmatism of identifying cannabis consumers as criminals.
