Yes I realize that. But I was using that example as a way to compare the effects of the two. Alcohol itself isn't going to beat someone up, yes, but the people who are most likely TO hit their wife are probably going to be less likely to do it if they were high rather than drunk.

But it is! It's perfectly ok to "drug up" on all the alcohol and tobacoo you want... AFTER you reach 18 and 21.

I, personally, can not work high. But there are other people who say they can't work unless their high. When I stoned I just stand there stuck on stupid like a zombie. Again, other people say that's them sober.
