Stirling MSP Evelyn Tweed tweeted that the message from local police was not "helpful".
Divisional Commander for Forth Valley Division Alan Gibson said: "This was a well-intentioned post on social media which unfortunately does not reflect Police Scotland's well-established commitment to put blame for criminality on offenders. A spokesperson added: "These do not appear to be linked. We take all reports seriously and we would encourage anyone who believes they have been a victim of spiking in any form to contact police via 101."
Police have investigated reports of drink spiking for years, although very few cases have been prosecuted.
What a load of tosh. If anyone doesn’t understand how alcohol makes them less safe, they shouldn’t drink to excess. No, it doesn’t mean you should be taken advantage of criminally, but you choose what you imbibe and how much is YOUR responsibility
Getting drunk makes you vulnerable to predators for obvious reasons…not sure what the issue is.
