The gateway drug theory is a bunch of propaganda bullshit made up by the government to justify making weed illegal. Weed was first made illegal in San Antonio , TX out of predigest to get rid of and oppress the Mexican population. They claimed bullshit like they would get high and rape white women and other crimes to scare people into making it illegal. It has been a unjust law from the very beginning. The USA has had never really had a pot problem socially. It was legal during probation and was grown in Tenn and other states for making Hemp rope for the Navy during WW2. The real gate way drugs are alcohol and cigarettes. |
