Well, having had five friends die from drug ODs; I'm quite happy that heroin and crack aren't available in Tescos.

I know it's already been done, but I'm just astounded by the huge logical fallacy in that sentence.

The reason people OD is generally due to the vastly variable purity/quality of the drugs they are taking. If they were regulated this wouldn't happen. I'm sure the odd person would still OD but it would be much less common.

Surely the main reason people od is because they have foolishly taken the drugs in the first place.

Yes but the main reason people die is being born in the first place. 😕

Doesn't take much then.

Have you not spotted any straw men yet then?
