NO MORE VICTIMS, Stop Drug Abuse!

Here's a simple poster i made to show how much i care about the prevention of drugs abuse. I made it by myself with Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my dad's notebook because mine's a bit 'cranky' today
sorry if it's a bit crappy. most of my brushes and my fonts are in my notebook, so yeah here goes nothing~

Here is the list of misreable facts about drugs

• One in four US deaths is connected to alcohol, tobacco, or illicit drug use.

• Tobacco users run the biggest risk of harm, since the majority of those deaths—430,700 annually—are associated with smoking.

• Excessive alcohol use is responsible for 100,000 deaths annually.

• 16,000 deaths annually are due to illicit drug use, but this estimate is likely to be conservative as substance abuse is indirectly associated with deaths from diseases such as HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, tuberculosis, homicides, and other violent crimes and incidental injuries.

• Drug offenders account for more than one-third of the growth in the state prison population and more than 80 percent of the increase in the number of federal prison inmates since 1985

• More than 75 percent of domestic violence victims report that their assailant had been drinking or using illicit drugs at the time of the incident.

• By eighth grade, 52 percent of teenagers have consumed alcohol, 41 percent have smoked cigarettes, and 20 percent have used marijuana. WORLDWIDE!
  

• Men are four times more likely to be heavy drinkers and 1.3 times more likely to smoke a pack of cigarettes or more a day. Men are also twice as likely to engage in regular marijuana use.

• Heroin and cocaine account for about 70 percent of all drug cases.

Such a shame. Those poor people died like this --> and i don't want anybody else to follow them. Why do they have to choose drugs as a saviour for their lifes? There are more things they could've done! Let's make a change! Stop Drug Abuse!


Keep hoping, guys!
