Violent Drunk, Or Violent Non-drunk?

Violent Drunk, Or Violent Non-drunk?

Which is better?

A violent drunk? Or a violent non-drunk?

Well, I don’t know.

A violent drunk is someone with a problem.

But I mean, I guess if you are drunk at least you have an excuse?

A violent non-drunk is just being mean.

Of course, maybe it is a different issue if one causes the other.

“I couldn’t believe that mild-mannered Papaw, whom I adored as a child, was such a violent drunk. His behavior was due at least partly to Mamaw’s disposition. She was a violent nondrunk.”
–J. D. Vance, Hillbilly Elegy
