Yes, that is the end result of their logic. The actions the perp took were already illegal. To assume that perp would not have commited such an act without said substance removes accountability. Perp decided to take whatever substance, then decided to commit a crime.

By similar logic, automobile accidents kill more people every year than any disease. Doctor's mistakes kill more people each year in the USA than guns do. Perhaps we should ban cars and doctors?


Random fact: It is impossible to lick your own elbow, but it is fun to watch people try.
