I am starting to believe that alcohol is the only reason we have civilization. All those animal compulsions wound tight and repressed to function in society so we need an outlet that lets us vent in a somewhat acceptable manner.

Oh hes just drunk haha...

Oh she was raped...

We cant really put a normal level of expectation on a drunk persons actions. There is still responsibility but to a differing degree.

LOL. The big difference being drunks can still be functional members of society

Absolutely false in my experience, drunks have been vastly less functional than ANY other drug user ive ever met. I got more shit done, and done correctly, in my opium days than drunks to in their day to day lives. Drunks are scum who feel totally innocent of their douchebaggery

My experience has met tons of functional drunks in construction. The addicts steal shit and disappear often.

Drunks are addicts, and they don't steal shit and disappear because they never showed up to start with or passed out somewhere and werent conscious to do any stealing. Its passive stealing, stealing by being a counterproductive turd.
