These figures do not make sense I thought Cannabis was a "gateway drug"????

Yep. Nope, it's just not.

My first toke was at age 15. I'm now 59.

But I ingested cannabis as a child as early as age 6. My grandparents grew it on their prairie farm as a windbreak, to help prevent soil erosion and as a medicine. Whenever I was sick, my grandmother made me cannabis leaf tea. I don't remember any effects other than it made me feel a bit better and helped me sleep.

I never saw them use weed recreationally. They had a still and made their own Vodka and brewed their own beer.

Ha ha ha. I bit paranoid perhaps? I live in Canada so I am in good shape. I can walk into any one of about 50 dispensaries within a short subway ride and get anything I want. Now, there are lots of ways to get bud into the States, but walking it through the border guards is not one of them.

A couple of months ago I started to watch a movie on TV about a big hash deal. After a few minutes, my reaction was "meh". Just didn't seem like a great adventure film the way it would have when cannabis was strictly illegal. I know it was only a movie, but the idea of people getting killed over some hash .... well, I would just say "fools". Unless of course, it was a whole ship load of the stuff.

SAME. Well, it was in a wooded area near the freshman dorms. It didn't become habitual until I was 21. Then I had a t-break of a few months, I think.

Halloween, 1967. I was a 14 yr old freshman. Strangely enough, it wasn't until the following Summer that I felt the effects. The occasional times I'd try it, I'd never get off. I thought everyone was faking it. It was crap: mostly seeds. I'm 65 now. Medicare!!!!!

16, High School in the 90's Blunts were what the cool kids preferred, I never liked the taste of blunts and the technique to roll them was a status symbol achievement I never cared to master, I still can't stand them, and preferred glass bowls or bongs to rip. Since I always loved to cook I started prepping and giving out edibles, ( plenty of trial and error) This drew many young attractive women my way haha I still prefer smooth glass with my flowers while vaping of course at 42.
