How many people are actually killed by drugs?
well I don't know what doesn't add up...if you want to take up for cancer sticks knock yourself out....Before my dad died he worked as an assistant pathologist for UTMB and I spent more days in the county morgue than I can count weighing lungs. There is a HUGE difference in a smokers lung and one that has been exposed to smog...
and age makes no difference you can always tell a smokers lung.
I'll go with the Mayo clinic study. I'm sorry but I hardly think the tobacco companies are poor scapegoats...
But whatever, dude...its your life smoke away. The post was in support of weed anyway, I really don't care about the rest.BlueCat Reviewed by BlueCat on . How many people are actually killed by drugs? This has probably been posted many times before but I think it deserves a repeat..... The number of drug deaths in the US in a typical year is as follows: Tobacco kills about 390,000. Alcohol kills about 80,000. Sidestream smoke from tobacco kills about 50,000. Cocaine kills about 2,200. Heroin kills about 2,000. Aspirin kills about 2,000. Rating: 5
