EN: Just a short notice. David Nutt et al. published an article [1] in The Lancet with a wholistic view on the danger of drugs including physical harm, addiction potential, and social effects. Bottom line is that some legally available substances like alcohol and tabaco are more dangerous than illegal ones like cannabis, LSD, ecstasy, if you use the proposed scale for ranking.
