True or False: People under the influence of certain drugs may be unpredictable and can feel little to no pain during a physical confrontation.

The statement is true because certain drugs can significantly alter an individual's perception, judgment, and physical sensations. For example, substances like stimulants, opioids, and hallucinogens can lead to unpredictable behavior, as they affect the brain's normal functioning and decision-making processes. As a result, an individual under the influence of such drugs may act erratically or aggressively without the typical social inhibitions.

Moreover, many drugs can dampen the perception of pain, meaning that a person may not feel injuries that would normally cause discomfort during a physical confrontation. This decreased ability to sense pain can make them appear more resilient and escalate the situation further due to a diminished awareness of their physical limitations.

Therefore, both aspects of the statement—that individuals under the influence can be unpredictable and may experience little to no pain during confrontations—are supported by the effects of certain drugs on the human body and mind.
