Exactly? I bet more people die from all the issues that arise from alcohol and smoking than from most other drugs. Lung cancer, liver failure, jumping in front of cars because you're pissed. You're always hearing about this. Is it because these drugs are any worse than others? Or is it because they are more easily accessible?
Personally I don't care.
The critical issue in this is personal liberty, I acknowledge the health hazards associated with taking any kind of drug, but it's your choice what you do with your body IMHO.
