> Using the generally accepted amount of deaths last year from these drugs to be about 42,000
It is NOT generally accepted, and this fact was made clear by another poster, but you refused to respond to his post.
> then even if that rate stays constant, millions of people could die from these drugs in the years ahead as 42,000 per year.
You are repeating the same misinformation over and over. They are exaggerations, and have thus far not been supported by any citations you have produced.
Shall we investigate the validity of your words? Where did you get the idea that psychotropic drugs cause, by their actions, 42,000 deaths per year? Let's see what you use for sources of information. Let us remain focused on 42,000.
> I am not anti-drug. I am anti-death
Most all of us are anti-death, especially when it comes to our own. You are indeed anti-drug. This is not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself were you not to exaggerate, over-generalize, and perpetually propagate misinformation. Like I said, let's take a closer look at your 42,000 number, its interpretation, and the validity of its source.
