Waste more time trying to scare kids about pot and the only thing will change in a year from now is that more kids will have tragically die.

The point is not to scare kids with incorrect facts about pot (I hope)...but the fact remains that in orthodox communities, kids that are using pot are very often already moving in the direction of harder drugs, simply because it's not just recreational use, it's part of a larger pattern of pain or rebellion.

Ok then you have to address the pain and rebellion. If didn't use pot they will just go to the harder drugs directly if the pain and rebellion is not addressed. Take using pot as a siren going off.

Sort of true. Not always accurate that they'd jump directly to harder drugs, but definitely true that addressing the pain and rebellion is important.

My original point was pot is not the issue before you went off on "I know everything" tangent. Now we got pot out of the way you can continue.  :P

Are you trying to say the majority of marijuana users go on to harder drugs?

Are you trying to say that the majority of hard drug users didn't start with marijuana?

Just so there is no confusion most marijuana users DO NOT go on to harder drugs.

How many hard drug users started out on breast milk? The questions are meaningless.

If you want to have an honest discussion then address the point I made. Don't try and confuse the issue.

There are many things which are not prohibited, yet we set boundaries and make guidelines to protect against abuses and excess. The behaviors that an addict exhibits usually comes from ignoring the boundaries and indulging in the excesses.

Pot use is on the rise because 1. It is more readily available due to decriminalization on the state and local levels; and 2. Because it is an easy tool escape reality.

When someone is an addict and the prohibited or formerly prohibited vice is now more readily available. Or, if the social stigma of the vice has been diminished or removed entirely. What do you think will happen? Of course they will indulge in the excess.

Therefore, the solution has always been, in our community, to set boundaries, even for permitted things. So speaking about Pot is absolutely crucial and relevant.

A community without boundaries such as the secular world at large will not understand this.

If you are coming from a place where you think (community) you are special we will never agree on anything.

It seems you are talking about the dangers of addicts using pots. That is totally different point/discussion.

My point is smoking pot does not lead to becoming a drug addict.

And you are coming from a place where you have no clue about our special community. So as previously stated...

Im not trying to say anything you would comprehend. You are free to comment on things you know. This is something you know nothing about...i.e. drug use in the religious Jewish community.
