SilverGhost Forums Junkie Location: Sydney Registered: September 2004	Drugs vs Alcohol Thu, 14 April 2005 08:22 Now while im sure the subject title can be read several different ways, i was just sitting here in many of my mentally idle moments at work just thinking about the deaths that have resulted from drugs and alcohol and thought about comparing them. Drugs are illegal, Alcohol is not. The question is this, Do you think that Alcohol, although legal, has resulted in more deaths i.e. drink driving, bar fights that went wrong, crimes of passion etc. through use than any deaths resulting from use of drugs? Now i thought about it a little more, and i feel that you cant include drug 'wars' as a contributing factor since im sure the majority of people involved werent 'on' the particular drug at the time of the conflict, but drug overdoses can obviously be included which im sure will shore up the number a bit. There is also Alcohol overdose or poisoning, but in comparison this would be a much lower figure....i think. I was thinking on a global scale, but if people want, we can consider australia by itself... My point is that even though Alcohol is not a prohibited substance, and can be considered a 'safe' drug i feel it has been directly responsible for more deaths than any combination of narcotics. as i said, just one of my random thoughts that i thought might prove to be an interesting discussion.
