Drugs are killing healthy young people. How is it that a drug dealer is not tried as a murderer?

It's not limited to class. It could be your own son or daughter.

You know how many people in Singapore die from overdoses? Almost none, because drugs are actually illegal there.

Ok OP.

Why don't you go and look up the statistics for alcohol induced death and disease in this country vs those attributable to illegal drugs.

So those should be banned too

Both tobacco and alcohol can kill you. Same as drugs can

Presumably because murder is a specific crime involving a motive and intent. If dealers intended to kill their customers a)they wouldn't do it via the drugs and b)they'd quickly be running out of customers.

Personally, I think drugs should be controlled in the same way as alcohol and cigarettes. You buy them legally, you know what you're buying every single time. But no government is going to do that.

They're illegal here.

So is burglary and assault-they never happen either do they?
