Drug Deaths - Fighting the Wrong “Drug War”

Marijuana is vilified by the State, and for what reason?  Is it dangerous?  I do not think so, but do not let me convince you of this, let’s look to the FDA and the records they compile on drug deaths.

The following data has been compiled by ProCon.org and was received from the FDA after filing a Freedom of Information Act request.

Deaths from Marijuana v. 17 FDA-Approved Drugs - (Jan. 1, 1997 to June 30, 2005)

“Total deaths from marijuana:  0”
“Total deaths from 17 FDA approved drugs:  11,687”
