The entire forum is wrong and needs more research done! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.11.241.236 (talk) 16:27, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Alcohol as the most harmful drug? 90% of people in the U.S. drink alcohol, and the dependence rate is less than one percent of that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CC4D:8B0:D821:9BCF:BC2:3729 (talk) 09:39, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Why is cannabis on this list?

 * Discussion of this information is not really relevant, as its someone elses analysis. providing sources contrary to this would be useful in any article that uses it. PS. any smoke taken into the lungs is carcinogenic, even wood smoke. note the "harm to others" is large with MJ, presumably related to its being illegal. harm to self is at a "10", thus near the bottom.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 02:45, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Laughable
This graphic is laughable, I don't know where the information came from, but it seems as if someone rearranged all the drugs and their respective bars randomly. I don't even know where to start with the glaring errors, it's overwhelmingly wrong. This site has so much great, correct, information about these chemicals, it seems it would be easy to create your own helpful graphic.

 * I agree this table is a total joke, and blatant POV-pushing by its author. Unfortunately, its author is a well-respected scientist, so the table is notable. I definitely would love to see a graphic from a study where the author wasn't out to prove a point about drug legalization. If anyone has such information, we could add it to the appropriate articles in place of this monstrocity. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 22:32, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Ridiculous
This graphic is absurd. We know that tobacco kills about 1/3 of its users — how does it rank so low and with harm to others forming such a high portion of it? This graphic should NOT be taken seriously and should be stricken from the pages it is used on as it is CLEARLY false. mackdacre (talk) 03:12, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
