The pro-drug libs I know are fond of asking the question, "How many people have died from smoking marijuana?" and then answering it themselves "ZERO!"

I will print this for them. It will annoy them to no end. :)

The pro-drug libs I know

Are you in favor of alcohol continuing to be legal? Then you're a pro-drug lib too :-)

Sounds like someone making up a reason to blame marijuana. I haven't smoked for 15 years but I can't believe that for all this time SUDDENLY someone dies of smoking. Just smacks me of an agenda.

Good Lord, I'll bet several hundred people died just today from drinking alcohol. And here we have the first known case in Britain of someone dying from smoking marijuana! Anyone who thinks that alcohol should be legal, and marijuana illegal, apparently doesn't think very hard.

Hey Spleen:

Before you get too cocky here try doing a little research on how many people have died from aspirin.

Then ask about alcohol.

Then tobacco.

Let me point out that water toxicity is a known phenomenon. That's right, people die from voluntarily drinking excessive amounts of water.

As a final exercise read the parable of the mote and the beam.

Dr Guy said that death was more likely if users ate the drug rather than smoked it. "I would not be surprised if in this case the deceased had ingested a fatal amount of cannabis."

He didn't necessarily smoke it. Given the rarity of death tied to marijuana, you'd have to almost consider this a freakish cause of someone's premature demise. Self-inflicted, to be sure, but that doesn't prevent a cause of death being considered a freak accident.

Ah, OK, one.

Riddle me this, how many ALCOHOL related deaths per year?
