They died from taking recreational drugs and, no, it's nothing like your comparison!

Indeed they are, but they're being sold as E and people buying them believe they're E.

Sorry to deny you the opportunity to tell me that nicotine and alcohol cause more deaths I am merely pointing out that it's ludicrous to suggest that drinking tea and hard drugs are the same.

I'm trying to quantify exactly how you would define a dangerous drug compared to another drug

You obviously know that smoking and drinking are pretty dangerous - do you think we should ban them?

Just for arguments sake!

That's talking about the temperature, not the caffeine content!

You're clutching at straws

of course I am

however, I think the example of people dying from "fake" ecstacy, is a great example of why it should be legalised, as I discussed earlier

And I'm not interest in getting into that debate

It's a good point but people have died from 'real' ecstasy too.

OK

I was wondering because people seem more interested in sending a message or have misconceptions on how dangerous (or not dangerous) certain drugs are, than actually working to reduce the harm of using drugs. I only added this last bit in because you have to put in more than 10 characters and I seem to have got a bit carried away

Of course they have, I never denied that. Or suggested that it is 100% risk free.

But thousands more have died from smoking and / or drinking.

These two are FAR more dangerous, in terms of risking your life.

And as someone else pointed out earlier, so is horse riding.

But how many have died from drinking tea? That is the point I'm arguing, not any of the others.
