If you're down, you should bring up the whole, people are a product of their circumstances point he argued me tooth and nail over. :laugh:
This is him:
I don't expect every person who has different experiences, different development, different biological predispositions, etc. to meet some golden expectation of how human beings should behave. I'm realistic. If I have someone who was abused as a child and they turned to drugs, I recognize that is how they have coped, and only after I have educated them on alternative coping strategies and seen to it that they have received therapy for their abuse, do I begin to hold them accountable for choosing drugs. I won't hold them accountable if they are unaware of other ways to cope. The same goes for any crime. I hold them accountable within their own individual context of circumstances. I would be a huge walking asshole if I didn't.
Actually, there's a lot you could use against him, lol!
