Pot has been medically shown to help with a lot of things. Each individual needs to decide whether the bad things are worth it for the good. Right now, my smoking tobacco - lung problems outweigh the possibility of me going postal on someone lol. So anytime my parents tell me that its bad for me I say "would you rather me kill people? Cause you take away my nicotine and it will happen" lol

And I think that saying that all meth heads have smoked pot is a slippery slope. You can't say that pot is a gateway drug because hardcore drug users have all smoked it. Those people have probably done everything under the sun. I know many more people that smoke pot without ever moving on to anything else than people who use it and suddenly go "oh my....crack would be good!" It's just not plausible.
