Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs? (view source)
Revision as of 03:30, November 8, 2008

All the statisitcs I've seen on this look at it backwards. They say X% of cocaine users started out using marijuana. The significant statistic is the percentage of marijuana smokers who go on to use cocaine. I never see those statistics quoted. Perhaps French fries are a gateway drug; I bet more than 90% of cocaine users in this country had previously eaten French fries at some point. [[User:PortlyMort|PortlyMort]] 11:19, 21 July 2007 (EDT)

I do not believe so. I have regretfully used all three drugs and have never moved on to and have never desired moving on to harder drugs. I feel like if you have the will to avoid items like heroin, cocaine, and the like, you will, and no amount of peer pressure will steer you otherwise.
