88,000 alcohol related deaths per year

NIH

33,600 gun related deaths per year

CDC includes accidents and suicides

Apparently, you're 2.5x as likely to die from you or someone else putting a drink in their hand.

We all know how banning alcohol turned out...

I will take it a step further. How many people today actually think legalizing drugs will solve the drug problem?

It will solve the crime problem that revolves around drugs.

People are always going to find a way to get fricked up. We've been doing it for around 10,000 years.

Maybe from the gang standpoint, but it will stop the addicts from committing crimes to get their fix.

Just like alcoholics do the same to get their fix.

Why is one ok and not the other?

I'm not aware of whole lot of violent crime to get a 40oz or 6-pack, but I could be wrong.

There is when you don't have the money to buy the 40oz or 6pack. Just like there is when you don't have the money to buy the eightball.
