I'm sick of reading about international politics here all the time, so its time for something a bit different. Please try and keep discussion away from Iraq, America, Israel, Islam etc
We're all familiar with the idea of a "gateway" drug; a drug which, if used is purported to lead its user towards harder, more dangerous drugs.
Are tobacco and/or alcohol types of gateway drugs? I'd say nearly all hard drug (heroin, meth etc) users have used both before and continue to do so, so does this qualify them for the status of "gateway drugs"?
