John shoots and kills Bill over Sally. Did SALLY kill Bill?
No. John did.
In the same way, marijuana did not kill anybody. JAMES LEWIS killed somebody over marijuana.
(This is not to be construed as approving use of marijuana. But please keep your facts straight.)

Marijuana did not kill this person. A person killed this person. Anger and short-sightedness killed this person. They could have been selling crack, or comic books. The result would have been the same.
When people say “marijuana has never killed anyone” they mean that the plant itself cannot be overdosed on. Taking “too much” will not kill you, it will just make you fall asleep. You will always wake up again…unlike so many other drugs. That’s all that the statement means.

Very misleading title. The article you present is an example of how a life could have been saved if it marijuana was legal. This sounds like a story from the alcohol prohibition era when gangs controlled the market.

marijuana kills all those victims of crimes supported by drug money and drug cartels who make their dough from Americans who party because they think they have a right to break laws they don’t like and are concerned only with their momentary pleasure, not the women and children sold into the short and brutal life of sex slavery, the youngsters recruited as couriers who die young bearing the brunt of the dangers of the trade, gamblers who suicide when they lose everything, my neighbors up the road who had dealers bust into their house, the wrong house looking for a gang member who held out on them, and killed six husbands and fathers gathered for a harmless game of dominoes and legal beer.
Everybody in my generation has grown up with friends and family members whose brains are still fried, they don’t call them deadheads for nothing. It kills those who cannot use their land to grow food crops for their families and villages and whose kids starve on sub-standard diets because the druglords claim the land for growing grass for the American market. It kills the household in another part of my state whose children, one pre-born, died in effects of mold promoted by the pot operation a family member had going in the basement. How do I kill thee? Let me count the ways.

Hitler never killed a Jew but he is blamed for the holocaust. Same reasoning. (This is not to be construed as approving of the extermination of Jews).

Different as Hitler ordered their extermination.
Marijuana did not order this man to kill.
You might get off saying that a 5-inch blade killed.
In this case marijuana did not kill anyone but it was used as an excuse to kill. Just as many other things can and are used as excuses to kill. Both legal and illegal things can be used as excuses to kill.

Hey now! Deadhead means Grateful Dead fan also, which I consider myself.

Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs such as Advil kill 16,000 people per year. FAR more than Marijuana. Where is the outcry?

Please!
Hitler ordered Jews to be killed, he bears the moral responsibility.
As for “marijuana kills” do we say “marriage kills” every time a jealous husband stabs his wife.
As for drugs supporting cartels, &c – all true but it is the illegality of drugs that makes them so profitable. Should we legalise them? No. But you will notice that every increase in penalties for possession and dealing has made the drug trade riskier and hence more violent. We seem to be trapped in a cycle that I don’t know the way out of.
