I disagree. I feel that putting ANY drug into your system (including alcohol) can create in one the urge to branch out and try other substances...All drugs are similar in that they release certain feel-good chemicals in the brain (dopamine, serotonin) so it is only natural that when you try one you might be interested in others...This is from my experiences anyways (and many friends of mine)...I have nothing against weed but I do feel that it can, on some level, make someone more curious...

TRUTH: In 1975, Alaska's Supreme Court held that under their State Constitution an adult could possess marijuana for personal consumption in the home.

The court's ruling became a green light for marijuana use. A 1988 University of Alaska survey showed that the state's teenagers used marijuana at more than twice the national average for their age group. The report also showed a frequency of marijuana use that suggested it wasn't experimental, but a well incorporated practice for teens.

Fed up with this dangerous experiment, Alaska's residents voted in 1990 to recriminalize possession of marijuana. But 15 years of legalization left its mark-increased drug use by a generation of our youth.
