The reality is that you can be put in a position of having to make that choice without ever having done what he did.
The conundrum is, why is it so easy to criticize him for making that choice, without being sure you wouldn't do the same?
Because meth is evil, and I can say with absolutely no fear of God or man that I will never be involved therein.
Corollary: I like to think that if I have children, I will have them in a responsible matter and raise them up unto my values.
So they won’t be doing meth either.
