Yes, the plural of anecdote is not data


Lot to be said for the saying, "when your talking to druggies your talking to the drug, not the person", expand this to "when your talking to people on chemicals, your talking to the chemical" that also includes prescription drugs, alcohol, etc.

this does not exempt them from laws, excuse their behavior. "the drug made me do it" mentality


An observation made when I was attending Al-Anon after marrying (and finally divorcing) an alcoholic.

"Alcohol is only 15% of the problem. Take away the alcohol and you still have 85% a**hole."

Drugs work kinda the same way.
