Why would your first instinct tell you I'm accusing you, rather than speaking in general terms?

". I actually had someone on another thread say that doctors shouldn't be allowed to prescribe these drugs because someone MIGHT become addicted." Well, in our society we cater to the lowest common denominator..in this case those that might abuse the drug. It's like how a parent can't take their kids lunchbox to them once they are in the school building because a parent MIGHT slip their kid a gun, knife or Midol.

Well, who exactly were you accusing of being sleazy? I was the only one here using anecdotal evidence about someone I know who died from an Oxycontin overdose. You were using that tone in response to my post. What am I to take from that?
