TIL it's offensive to have an informed opinion. First, lets cover the fallacies - no one said alcohol is more dangerous than crack. No one said alcohol is more dangerous than heroin. Several people did say alcohol is more dangerous than LSD, MDMA, other drugs. The data backs this up, in terms of mortality and in social ills that come of alcoholism. Being nonaddictive and having such an insanely high lethal dose, there isn't even regular data on how many people die to LSD yearly! So if we're playing the "outrageous lie" game, then you're winning.
In all seriousness though, look at the facts: http://www.cdc.gov/alcohol/fact-sheets/alcohol-use.htm http://www.cdc.gov/alcohol/fact-sheets/alcohol-use.htm - Alcohol is responsible for far more deaths, in part because of its availability. For lack of a better resource, https://erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_death.shtml https://erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_death.shtml - no one dies from LSD.
You'd do yourself a favor to avoid conflating psychedelics with highly addictive "hard" drugs.
