You mean people with impaired motor skills and less inhibition get hurt more often?

Shocking.

Yeah, poor people like to drink...and they don't have insurance, so when they need medical attention they go to the ER. derp indeed

I've also heard jumping off of your roof increases the chance of an ER visit.

When I was younger, we used to put our trampoline next to our house and jump off the roof. Not smart/safe, but somehow none of us (probably 10 or so kids) ever ended up injured.

Budweiser is most popular beer among injured ER patients, pilot study says


Glad I gave up Budweiser. I haven't been to the ER ever since. ;)

In other words, profiling :cool:
&#8220;Some products are marketed to certain groups of people in our society,&#8221; explained Traci Toomey, the director of the University of Minnesota&#8217;s alcohol epidemiology program, who was not involved in the study. Higher-alcohol malt liquor, for example, is heavily advertised in African-American neighborhoods. &#8220;So we might want to put some controls on certain products if we find they are tied to greater risk. But how they are marketed and priced is critical information and that has been very hard to study.&#8221;
