RE: TIL: 50% of Murder VICTIMS Have Alcohol In Their System
Alcohol may trigger aggression or violence by disrupting normal brain function. It dramatically weakens the brain mechanisms responsible for preventing impulsive behaviors. A person is more at risk of misjudging social cues, ultimately overreacting to a discerned threat. Now in the case of premeditation accompanied with alcohol, it could be interpreted as a "facilitator", "mean" of achievement.
Alcohol sure is not the only reason behind the criminal accidents. It is just that a person when is high has a greater probability of misjudging and doing something that is socially unacceptable. Therefore, we cannot come out with any conclusion like banning the alcoholic beverages or anything like that. It just should be kept in mind and made aware that it should be consumed timely and appropriately. The quantity also matters a lot.
Valuable information. Thanks for the comment!
