People are always looking for something to blame other than themselves. I'm sure there's at least one person in history that committed suicide solely due to weed consumption, but I would wager a guess that there haven't been more than 10.

More often, people are looking to blame the moral failures of others rather than acknowledging and addressing the complexity in life that results in unfortunate situations.

"suicide solely due to weed consumption" is not a useful metric.
