Driving and it being a gateway drug are not the only problem. It impairs ones mind enough they might get into arguments and not even know it. Most people with domestic violence problems either have alcohol or marijuana history in their past or current, that's a proven fact.
Can you produce documentation on a legit study in which marijuana was more dangerous than alcohol when used before driving?

The gateway drug speach is really getting a bit worn out, there is no evidence to support it from every standpoint. Of course people are going to try marijuana first, no one just jumps into Meth. I bet they try alcohol first also, but that seems to be legal. Statistically, for every 104 Americans who have tried marijuana, there is only one regular user of cocaine, and less than one user of heroin. There is NO conclusive evidence to show marijuana is a gateway drug. Meth users are going to find meth with or without marijuana.

You are giving me nothing but propaganda.
