none of these are designed to kill, except for guns. car accidents, are just accidents, not accidental. poverty is an issue that takes concerted global efforts to eradicate. war is a result of stupid decisions and bad leadership. racism is the same. alcohol and tobacco are legal because everyone wants to relax, and the governments need their tax.
