Agreed
Having lived in a (hispanic) area/large city/state where both coke and tar were good, cheap and plentiful, I heard of maybe 5 OD's that were "coke-related" (reason for quotes is most/all were in combination with other drugs, alcohol being the most predominant).
On the other hand, there was a handful of H overdoses every day. Most of these were also cocktails and older users (namely benzos and cocaine), but a couple times I heard (on the news/paper) of 16-17 year olds dying from H alone. I assume most of these kids recently made the switch from smoking to IV.
Still, kid or seasoned-junkie, its always troubling to hear and I have no doubt that it (h) will always be more of a risk to the user than coke.
IMHO of course

cocaine is just the small tip of the iceberg. it's the mentality of the masses that is the problem.

Meh, cocaine is alright but too short a high.
Meth on the other hand is great because it last so long.
I can never understand why people get addicted to coke. I was on amphetamines for awhile and i was addicted to high doses of vyvanse because it lasted so damn long and felt good the whole time.

Any addictive drug is damaging. It radically changes behavior even when the addict is sober.

In my opinion coke is an evil, evil drug, lol. And I say this from experience.
But anyway I think that probably with what is going on coke wise today pales in comparison with what went on in the 80's. Particularly in Miami. That was on a biblical scale.
I mean fuck according to some people half of the entire city of Miami was built off cocaine money.

this.
And '70's, I'd imagine..I think heroin and meth(and rx pills, obviously) have overtaken coke - it's still around, but there are cheaper and more consistently pure options that are easily available.
My nose reaaaally doesn't like insufflation and I'm college student broke, so it's just not something I find worth the money. I do hear coke brought up more than meth in my social circles and at parties, not counting my ex-tweaker friends who don't touch the stuff anymore, it seems like the latter is still the more "taboo" of the two even among drug users.

Yeah, it's sad. It can turn people into shells of their former selves even when they're sober. It's happened to me with short term abuse/addiction of prescription drugs(they're no better and I know shroomery folks realize this, but most people seem to overlook those things when the doctor is their drug dealer) that in the past.
