But drug use is not normal now.

You can't be serious.

"But drug use is not normal now."
"You can't be serious."

You're looking at around 5% of the population smoking marijuana and another 1-2% doing hard drugs. That ain't "normal" behavior.

Unless you have a totally different definition of 'normal'.

I am very serious. Maybe you and I live in 2 completely different parts of the country, but I would say no more than 2% use drugs recreationally and 5% use alcohol to excess.

I do not believe that hard core drug use is present in enough of the American population to consider it "normal."

Even if my numbers were tripled, that would still not be enough to be mainstream.
