Hell, I become a different person when I drink tequila. Imagine someone so introverted, but obviously with a hatred and turmoil somewhere deep inside, doing some much harder drug for the first time. I mean, it certainly is a possible explanation, and deserves discussion. The truth might lurk in this particular aspect. It would be a shame if it is passed by for political reasons.

You seem more interested in the truth of the matter than the politics of it. I am as well.
