>His statements are easily defend-able or rather, understandable, if only you could understand the actual point I am making. He is a drug addict. What he says when he is drugged-up has no import and certainly do not warrant ridicule, mockery, and scorn from amateur psycho-therapists.
Do you "know" he's an addict? Have you diagnosed him? Have you seen his medical records?
You're absolving him of responsibility. Who is the amateur now?
