Wrong use of the word surrendered. Context is everything. The topic of
the "war on drugs" was raised. The one in which the battle is around
drug use. In that war there are people who resist the temptation to
become a victim of the war and then there are those who just surrender
and join the millions of drug abusers. That was the "surrendered" I
spoke of. It is only by coincidence that the word "surrendered" also
applies to a person turning themselves in when accused of a crime. It
was a terse attempt at oblique humor. So oblique that the intent was
misunderstood. I'll take half the blame for the misunderstanding if you
will do the same.
