You haven't been around enough people drinking booze then. Psychotic breaks are not uncommon. Once you're basically anwywhere with people drinking you realize this. Flying and drowning in lakes, murdering your wife, or dying in a fiery crash on the freeway are not unheard of.

Everybody thinks they are immune to psychotic breaks until they do enough booze and have one. This could be you some day.

I'm not sure why you're responding in this manner. I never said alcohol was any better. I was addressing a comment that they were surprised psychotic breaks and deaths happen on psychedelics. This has nothing to do with alcohol.

Seems quite petty of a response.

They were specificaly asking about people wanting to fly.

“And I have never, ever seen anybody try to fly.” was the direct quote. Doesn’t say anything about psychotic breaks or deaths.

\>thing A is bad, but so is thing B, so we can't criminalize thing A

Better decriminalize murder in that case.

Honest question: How many people do you think avoid murdering others because there is a law against it? Or another way of putting it, do you think that the reason more people don't go around murdering others is because the government wrote down somewhere "this is illegal"?

if murder were legalized, the murder rate would jump, a lot.

No clue, but I also don't see how it's relevant to my tongue in cheek dismissive answer to OP
