Surely thats the mindset of an addict anyway.

I'll apologise for my reply....quite uncalled for but, this is an emotive subject especially if a great deal of your formative years have been blighted by these drug addictions by family members.
yes you say alcoholism and barbiturate abuse in my crazy family helped put me off those.
i can see thats why you appear very single minded on this, the 2 drugs you mention do not have a good background,
when i was young i drank too much, often paraletic, but i didn't become alchaholic , nor did i commit crime, different drugs have different effects on individuals,so the drug nor the individual can be tarnished the same,

i did not say (with or without drug addiction its something you would of done anyway)
i said
(Quote) you know( a good lot of the time) the blame is put on the drugs as an excuse for what they would have done anyway,

please do not twist my words, you sound like a court lawyer

drugs and drink are not always the fuel to fire the crime, but in some cases may be the fuse to the powder
