OUTLAW EVEREST?

Smoking tobacco should not be encouraged, yet we do not threaten 
tobacco growers, vendors and users with arrest and imprisonment. Now 
consider dangerous sports, such as mountain climbing. The death rate 
on Mount Everest is about one in ten of those who make it 
successfully, which is a vastly higher mortality rate than just about 
any drug used at present in a recreational manner.
