Link for those numbers/studies?
Also what were the numbers for alcohol? My guess would be in the 50% range for homicide, and 30% for suicides.
The reason there aren't very good records or studies done by the government is because they know the answer and if they were to put an honest study out it wouldn't show what they want to keep it illegal.
Luckily people are becoming more educated and not just listening to the BS the government tells them. This is why we are seeing a change to over 50% of Americans being in favor, and even a higher number in younger people. I actually don't really blame the older crowd for wanting it to remain illegal as they were told some pretty crazy things as youths about the drug.
