Even in Amsterdam.. it might be punishable by a slap on the wrist but it is still considered illegal in certain quantities. Last time I checked smoking was legal, and I can order 1000 cartons of cigs and be a-ok. I can also go to a liquor store and buy a truck load of booze, they will shake my hand and we will be a-ok. Let's not confuse the two. Furthermore, people do not go to jail for caffeine addiction, at least I have not heard of such case. Feel free to dig up a case or two.

Smoking and alcohol is a gateway drug? To some sure, to some breathing is a gateway drug, and I bet in the state of California oxygen has been known to cause cancer. Let's ban the damn thing, ehh? But as I have said before, those two are perfectly legal substances. Hell, smoking a cig and driving is not even illegal! omg!

I have personally engaged in a lot of smoking (cigs) and drinking since the age of 11, I'm not an addict to either. I rarely do either of them nowadays though. Drinking hasn't caused me to say "yes" to multiple offers of trying cocaine or heroin over the course of my life, most of those were "free samples" too. You can try the gateway theory all day long on me.




Um..Swiss had this:



And Sweden has a zero tolerance policy for drugs.

No, that's not it. Its similar to how cali has med shops for pot but its for heroin that is clean and medical grade. Just like anything else, its the user/abuser that gives it a good/bad name.
