Like I said 50 might not kill you


Definitely wont with aspirin.


it will a child.


No child will munch on 50 aspirins and
its legal to sell 100 at a time anyway.

but can cause damage and most likely to cause organ damage.


Unlikely.


Very likely ask someone that knows.


Don't need to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspirin_poisoning#Severity

That doesn't say that 100 aspirin pills will kill you.


http://www.wddty.com/aspirin-it-kill...very-year.html


Common over-the-counter painkillers such as
aspirin kill around 20,000 Americans every year,


That doesn't say that 100 aspirin pills will kill you.

and another 100,000 end up in hospital as a
result of taking the drug, new research reveals.


Just some stupid journo ****ing up the basics, again.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspirin_poisoning


That says that 100 aspirin pills wont kill you.


Why would it.


Because that article is about the effects of aspirin, stupid.

It doesn;t say a car will kill you, or water, or herion or alcohol


Because that article is about the effects of aspirin, stupid.

alcohol can kill but no one can tell you excactly how much will kill you.


Irrelevant to whether that article says that 100 aspirins wont kill you.

Paracetamol aint aspirin, stupid.


The same law applies in the UK in regard to buying in quantity.


And that is completely stupid given that 100 paracetamol can kill you.

A pack of 16 (pretty much the maxium pack size sold in the UK)


But you are welcome to buy 6 of those at a time even in Britain, stupid.


Not from the same outlet without presecription,


Wrong, as always.
http://www.rpharms.com/legal-classif...atus-table.asp

is 4.8g, then you have to go out and buy more.


Nope, you are welcome to buy 6 of those packs at the same time.


http://www.bupa.co.uk/individuals/he...er-painkillers


You can buy over-the-counter painkillers from a pharmacy, supermarket or
other shops, such as a convenience store, without a prescription from your
GP. Certain types of over-the-counter painkillers, such as paracetamol,
are
limited to packets of up to 16 if you buy them in a shop without
prescription.


That mangles the real story.
http://www.rpharms.com/legal-classif...atus-table.asp
http://www.rpharms.com/legal-classif...atus-table.asp

This is to help prevent people from accidentally taking too many.
However, you can buy them from pharmacies in packs of up to 32 tablets.


Try buying 6 packs .....


Perfectly legal.
http://www.rpharms.com/legal-classif...atus-table.asp

We'll see.

That wasn't a call to stop those helium balloon sellers.


Because its obviously possible to kill yourself accidentally,


So there must be a way of reducing such accidents.


There isnt if you want to still have party balloons.


particularly given that helium has an interesting effect on your voice.

He did not try to commit suicide, he was killed in an accident,


It was a she.


Sorry I was thinking of the suicide, which was a he.


And that article points out that quite a few do choose to
use helium to suicide, in spite of your claim that few do.


quite a few 2% for all gases.


Wrong, as always. Most of the suicide using an
inert gas end up in the 51% suffocation, stupid.

but then agin fining peole for driving above 100MPH doesn;t
stop them either does it. ? So why both having speed limits ?


Because fining people for exceeding the speed limit
does see quite a few stay below the speed limit, stupid.


well done so if you stop balloon sellers using helium .............


Not even possible, the voters wouldn't wear it.

in fact it'd probbaly be better for teh world,
if helium is as poisonous as you suggest.


I never ever said that its poisonous at all.


So it can't kill you then can it.


Corse it can when you use it with a suicide
bag to stop the suffocation reflex, stupid.

The reason it is used to suicide with is because its
the second most readily available to the general
public INERT gas that works fine to suppress the
suffocation reflex you get with suicide bags.


but very few people die from helium .


You proved that is a lie
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...schoolboy.html

But you could reduce that number by not
allowing helium to be used in party ballons.


Nope, they'd just use another readily available
inert gas like natural gas or propane and
presumably a few would be stupid enough
to try smoking the last ciggy while doing that
and end up with 3rd degree burns as well.

Been there, done that.


and failed.


You're lying thru you teeth as you always do when you
have got done like a ****ing dinner, as you always are.

Aspirin: It kills 20,000 Americans every year


Just because some fool journo mangles the real story as utterly as that...

http://www.slate.com/articles/news_a...t_balloon.html
"Death by helium still seems to be quite rare. U.S. Poison Control
Centers reported only two fatalities between 2000 and 2004."


Pity about
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...schoolboy.html

now compare that to 20,0000 a year.


Because guns are so much more readily available there, stupid.

perhaps it's just americans that are stupid is that it.


Lots of people died from electric shock every year.


**** all kill themselves that way deliberately.


http://www.electricalsafetyfirst.org...ch/statistics/


28 is **** all.


2 deaths from helium between 2002 & 2004 wow
what an amazing total. in a country of about 300+ million.


Pity about
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...schoolboy.html

plenty of people die from electricution.


**** all do in fact.


lots to do with it, as it's one way to kill yourself.


**** all are that stupid.


there's quite a number that are.


Nope, not even 28.
