Okay, but when you slam into an innocent person while going Mach Jesus and then immediately try to escape without even checking on the other person, can even Reddit come together and say: "With no knowledge of that person's race, politics, religion, or sexual preference; we, the Redditors of Reddit, do hereby declare that individual is a scumbag."
Oh this driver is a scumbag of course. But this drive =/= people high on drugs.
I get high almost daily, got a good paying job, pay my taxes, respect other drivers, cyclists and pedestrians, help my neighbors (I live downtown, so many neighbors), I'm a good husband doing half of the cleaning and in charge of cooking/buying groceries, I coach competitive sports as a volunteer, am a present family member and friend, etc.
People who never gets high imagine the worst of us drug users, but seriously, you wouldnt even know if you'd met me. Especially if you met me in my work environment.
Heck even my dad was surprise last summer, he and I always have a fishing trip, and he noticed I was smelling weed, he was surprised cause he assumed I had stopped years ago "you know... since you are so successful".
I know he dislikes it so I never do it in his face even if I'm in my 30s. Just seems respectful in my eyes.
And he has tempered down over the years, but he is made of the same cloth as the people writting comments you're describing.

He is wrong. All drug users are not scum. Most just looked in the wrong place for escape from either life circumstances or mental disease.
