You do realize that's true of any drink though. I could be drinking water (or even soda) among total strangers and someone could slip something into my drink. That doesn't fall under responsible drinking though, that falls under borderline criminal intent. The only way to really drink water "irresponsibly" is to drink way to much of it and kill yourself. But then someone isn't spiking your drink in that case either.
The problem with your logic is that it always assumes that those people who are drinking are always drinking at a bar/club/pub. What about the person at home who's drinking from a beer they bought in a store? Let's say they live alone and the beers are all sealed up in the refrigerator. Are you seriously suggesting that some magical person can slip something into that persons drink?
This originally started because you made the assumption that people thinking they can drink responsibly were obviously just deluding themselves since anything can go wrong at any time. Now you're obviously changing the argument to be people drinking in a social situation among assholes who think it's funny to spike someones drink (again, that's not about the person doing the drinking, that's about the asshole that decides to spike the drink). I'm sure there are plenty of people here that don't do that, so your whole argument falls apart.
Just because it can happen in certain situations, doesn't mean that's how things always happen. The sun could explode by the time I finish this post, but that doesn't mean it will.
