Seems pretty telling the stats showing that illicit drugs are causing far less deaths then alcohol and tobacco.

Umm couldn't be because it's so easy to get could it?

Are you saying that marijuana is hard to get in BC?

Still, I'd like to know how they drew that conclusion from their data unless they just phrased it poorly.

I assume the numbers are compared to previous years.

I also assume that "illicit drugs" refers to stuff like crack and meth. I doubt it includes pot. If it did, the results are skewed.

It's pretty damned clear that it's on the rise. This report makes it clear that alcohol is also a problem and folks with a pro-drugs agenda want to distract you away from the harmfull effects of illegal drugs.

Libertarians recognize that people have the right even to make bad choices. Marajuana users point out the undeniable fact that its far less harmful and causes far fewer deaths then tabacco and alcohol. Lumping it in with meth and crack is why those stats are skewed.

What about the ill health affects of fatty foods or an unhealthy leifstyle. believe me that diabetes and heart disease are far more of a health drain then drugs.

If you want to oppose drugs on the healthcare issue then you must first address everything above it on that scale because drugs is way down on that list.

this is news?

A "no drug is bad" policy isn't going to help our free, unconditional, already struggling medical system.
Simply to dismiss it as a low yield ignored the fact that it's a completely preventable condition that is already recognised as so dangerous that it's been made illegal.
Smoking, drinking and eating burgers may be unhealthy but it's not illegal.
Seeking out and using unregulated, illegal drugs is illegal.

Its not "no drug is bad". Its "that drug is far less harmful then a myriad of otherstuff thats legal and it deserves to be legal".

BTW, it was never made illegal because it was harmful. It was the whole hemp vs nylon thing. Marajuana grown then was far far weaker and very little of it was diverted to illegal causes.

If you are so against legal Mj then you should be for the criminilization of alcohol because for every strike against MJ is a strike against alcohol.

In additional your arguement in bold is what people seek to change and can easiliy change and is not in itself an arguement against legalization.

Its freedom baby yeah.

I'm not talking about pot because I've been very clear on that issue before.
I'm talking about the wide variety of drugs either imported or cooked up in someone's bathtub using industrial chemicals and who knows what else.
All of which are the main money makers for organized crime.

Hard drugs are illegal in most other countries and even the European "progressive" nations are seeing the error in their past liberal policies.

No they aren't. If anything they are seeing the cost and futility in a legal war on drugs. You have been reading to many conservative blogs. Decriminilization/legality allows alot of resources shifted to better uses then the very great cost of policing, charging, trying, and punishing people for making a moral choice.
