“I call BS - alcohol is the original date-rape drug and more often used than all the mentioned drugs put together.”
While what you say has been true for our generation, times have changed. I have observed the change first hand several times and do not like what I have observed. It is the current trend.
All parents should have a conversation with their daughters on protecting their beverage from others and never departing from a friend when out together. Recently I was at our local pub for dinner and met a young beautiful woman alone at the table next to me. She was well dressed in a business suit and I later learned that she was a Dr. She moved over and started hanging on me and asking for help. I recognized that she had been drugged and was not just drunk. (or she never would have hung on me...LOL)
I observed one man, a friend of the bartender that kept hanging near her, offering her a ride home. I stayed with her for a few hours until a group of her friends arrived and she assured me that she was now ok. It is sad, especially when the diseases today are like playing Russian roulette. These men are lower than low.

That was GBH - not even mentioned in the article.
