I have seen both sides of it.. In the worst of ways. I remember that night drinking myself into a mess and the fear it put in me to never do it again...
I was also on the receiving end of this same action too many times! I know its not cool in any way. I watched my son who is now 15 be thrown across a living room by his father who was so drunk he didnt know his own name and my son slam into a wall... at 11 mos old! I remember taking him to the er with a fractured skull and wondering if he would live! The last time I was with someone that intoxicated I found myself later laying in the floor of a nursing home I was working in with a call light wrapped around my neck. Nearly strangled to death because of a drunk ex!
Yes I know these actions are wrong and I do want to publicly apologize to anyone I have offended even you pp.. And I do mean that with all of my heart.
Then there was the car wreck my husband and I witnessed.. a drunk driver hit a car at the light we were stopped at. I could go into detail but I will spare all the sick details. It ended up with careflight flying out with a mother who delivered her stillborn baby (7 3/4 mos preg) on the stretcher on the way to the helicopter and my mother in law having to preform cpr on the 19 mo old who was in the back seat and the dad who was so bloody he was unrecognizable. All this while the drunk driver awoke to see the accident he had caused without a single scratch on his own body! Yes Its sick and I do believe that these people should be prosecuted to the full extent!
However I will tell you this much! I WILL NOT BE THE ONE who will do these things but I will be the one who prays to God that whoever does is put behind bars for the rest of their lives!
Hope that gives a little insight into AG ... and for whoever is lurking who may want to add to this.. yea I have a past but its exactly that! MY PAST!

And I am sorry for being so...ahem...vocally demonstrative.
AG, I have watched alcohol destroy so many people I love. It almost destroyed me personally. Alcohol is the biggest problem in the town I pastor in. I deal with kids who are abandoned while their parents pursue more and more alcohol.
I liken it to a friendly snake.
Fun to play with, but always deadly.
BTW, whoever sent that nasty email is a jerk, and I am sorry it happened to you.
