No they didn’t. Sorry you want to believe that - but it’s just not true. 5th grade Rio Grande Valley in Texas - almost every kid had a contact to get weed - not one could get beer or cigarettes. Junior high in Texas was wild with the sniffer dogs coming in every two weeks. You wouldn’t believe how much marijuana and cocaine was found in school.

Move to New Orleans - had a friend who’s parents were ANIMATE no cigarettes or alcohol - but weed was fine. Most of the boys I knew in high school started off with weed bc of that guy. They started drinking when we became friends bc my parents always let me drink if I was at home.

I think when the drugs are more prevalent - like on the border and in New Orleans it’s different than what most people want to believe

Any substance used in youth, before your frontal lobe is fully developed, can effect your dopamine receptors and create a propensity for use of stronger drugs. That includes nicotine or alcohol. And doesn’t even consider biological factors that may make some susceptible to addiction of any substance. Trying to pin that to weed as a gateway drug is being intellectually dishonest.

Which is why there’s a standard age for use where it’s been legalized. You have a bit of confirmation bias there, friend.

There are plenty of things that should be states rights issues but aren’t bc stupid losers want the same for everyone. Making everyone equal and even and giving everyone a trophy is what ruined everything.

I've seen top shelf go for $1300 a pound out here. No one wants to sell it for that, but I've seen it happen. $1800 is more of a fair price, if selling to dispensaries.



So its plausible..

Legalize it and tax it.


BR just might get funds to build that extra bridge.

I have no idea how much a pound of weed costs anymore and I'm sure it varies wildly, but buying that much for personal consumption used to be fairly pointless. You get used to the same type and it's effectiveness drops considerably. Or so I've been told.

cause nobody in Texas has parents who drank or smoked? No ash trays to raid or stealing from the fridge.

But saying it’s not a gateway drug is equally dishonest.

What does it matter if I have ‘confirmation bias’? I said to legalize the shite. I’ve never seen anyone’s brains blown out over a bottle of alcohol. And I’m sure it’s happened - but if im ok with you getting high and stupid but I don’t want to - what does it matter?

I’ll stay home and drink my whiskey - no bother to you

This is the whole problem - everyone has to have ‘approval’. If you like weed - smoke it - if it’s not legal in your area - chances are you won’t get caught. Especially if you live in a Democrat fun area. People go to work high all the time where I live. Grow your own stuff, too. Who is going to know? Unless you go out and act stupid.

Let’s say some random person drank alcohol, smoked weed, and did other drugs as a youth.

Could I theoretically become a genius
