Is alcohol a drug?

What is your opinion? And if so how does this relate to other drugs?

Alcohol is definately a drug. It is just as destructive if not more than any other party drug.

Of course it's a drug. It alters your mental and physical state in the same way that other illegal drugs do, although the effects are different. Alcohol is a depressant and the only reason that it's legal is that it's been around for centuries. Look what happened when they tried to ban it in North America in the 1920s (Canada too).

I think people who drink booze but look down on other drugs based on that fact that one is legal and others are not are a bit hypocritical. Perhaps alcohol is safer to some degree but people overdose on booze all the time; we just don't hear about it as often as you would when somebody OD"s on E, coke, heroin, etc.

+1

it's a mistake when people just associate the word drug with illegal drugs.

when simply, 'a drug is any substance, other than food, which is taken to change the way the body or the mind functions'

It may not be as addictive but it is just as if not WAY more destructive than other illegal drugs. How many people die each year from drinking and driving? All the fights and vadalizing.. that's mostly drunks, with the exception of the cokehead+drunks.. that's just a bad combo.
