To go along with what i was saying:
" A single death is a tragedy a million deaths is a statistic."
The reason why alcohol poisoning gets so much press is that its so rare.

IF I thought you killed my kid, I might kill you, but do you pass a law enabling me to do it?
How someone feels about something tragic that happens to them specifically versus generalizing that out to all people are two different issues.
3 kids from the age of 18-21 dying this year on college campuses from alcohol poisoning is tragic, but not a general and far reaching health concern . . .
Unless you are the dead person, or their family and friends.
