Narcotic drugs, methamphetamines in particular, and guns, when they are mixed together, are a dangerous chemistry for violence -- much worse than the combination of alcohol and guns.
Hence, from time to time, we hear reports of a man who turns into a monster when high on methamphetamines. He seizes his own child at gunpoint or knifepoint, and in some macabre cases, kills his own family without any sense of guilt.
