    The only point this illustrates is you cant do maths. In the UK there are on average 17 deaths per year where ecstacy use is implicated out of as user base of 500,000. thats 1 in 30,000. Youre calling a 1 in 30,000 shot common?
    There are 40,000 deaths from alcohol abuse per year from a user base of 40,000,000. 500,000 is 1/80th of 40m, so multiply 17 by 80 to get the projected number of deaths if e was as widely used as booze, = 1360. Vs 40,000 for booze.
    You can put your head in the sand if you like but those are the numbers, and thats why E is so low on the graph of harm, whereas alcohol is at the top.

    I dont consider any deaths acceptable, but the reason for them was poor information on how to take them, which lead to people drinking too much water or overheating. As I already said, there have been zero recorded deaths from poisoning or overdoses. I couldnt find any violence figures but i strongly doubt people take pills and beat up their wives.

    They took too much too much.
