The fact that the drug altered his mind to the point where he could not control himself from attacking a child

It seems that there has got to be more involved in this loser's rampage, than simply methamphetamine. How much of this stuff did he take, that he was not merely all buzzed up, but actually hallucinated that the child was a bug as reported in the story? Which was yet not sufficient to kill him with a heart attack or stroke?

So now I'm an enemy of our nation. You'll stoop to any low won't you.
I disagree with you so you brand me "An Enemy of the State".
Your sly innuendo will get you nowhere.

Seems to me that if our drug laws were loosened, some of the intoxication which now happens via alcohol, would happen via other substances that are in fact less likely to enable domestic trouble. Why we are so hard on marijuana is a mystery to me; this stuff does not trigger violent rampages like alcohol can.

The right to keep and bear arms is an essential American right. Slamming smack isn't.

What a shame that the facts don't support your views.

How so?

Where does "society" get its rights from?

And what a shame that getting tanked is legal

So do you want to outlaw wine or not?
