One bad story does not make a case against it, the vast majority of people who smoke pot never go on to use anything else.
If anything smoking pot has guaranteed I'll never use another drug, I like smoking pot a lot and honestly can't imagine enjoying life as much if I wasn't allowed to use pot in my leisure time. It's fun and it's harmless, why wouldn't I want to?
The fact is though that it's so fun and I enjoy it so much that I'm scared at what these hard drugs must feel like, I've seen every episode of Drugs, Inc. (the National Geographic TV documentary series) and all those drug addicts they interview talking about addiction and how good their drugs feel and how they can't help themselves but use more, and frankly I'm terrified of ending up like that.
I know how good pot feels, and if those hard drugs are so much better then I don't know how I'd ever be okay with being sober again after experiencing that kind of high. I don't want that for myself, and I will never use any hard drugs all the moreso for knowing what mild drug use is like.

Dude you just went into my mind, saw my thoughts and put it on a post. Im just like you, I love smoking weed but I'm utterly scared of harder drugs. Like Louis CK said "drugs are so fukn good, that they will ruin your life."

I believe that moderation is key. Personally, I'm terrified of drugs, but I understand where you guys are coming from and agree it should be legal in small enough doses. Otherwise, people will just get into it illegally, making contact with other harder, deadlier drugs easier. So yeah, legalize weed (with moderation).
