Unhappy Sad

It is sad to see another life allegedly taken by another drug. I don't understand the reference to "alcohol" as it is just another drug. Have been to Amsterdam a few times and you can see the effect of their "light drug laws".
These people who think pot is OK should understand that it is a gateway drug and many, many users end up going to more strong drugs as the high gets higher when they do. It is sad to see such a talented person as Whiteny Houston allegedly die from drugs or have a history of drug usage. Because of her money she most likely had a number of enabler's who helped her reach this point. Some do it because they think they are helping her, other because they want to continue to reap some money from her and some just don't care and abuse her. In the end she is responsible for her own life.
But please don't think using "pot" is just an innocent pastime. It is the potential beginning of a life of drugs and the sorrowfull effects of that life style. Of course alcohol is just another possible "gateway drug".
