I hate that there's an absurd headline relevant for this case.

Seriously. Cocaine is nowhere near as bad as alcohol. Alcohol kills so many more people.

if cocaine were used as widely as alcohol, it would kill far more.

Would it? Are þere, like, studies? I'm sure being high on coke doesn't make a person a better driver, but does it make someone as fucking awful as a drunk driver?

I'm not defending coke; I just wonder on what you're basing your statement. For example, way fewer people take psychedelic mushrooms þan people drink, but would you also claim if as many people took shrooms it'd kill more þan booze?
