Michael Jackson being "enabled"
When they are saying "enabling him" are they saying giving him a way to be operational through the drugs? Because the defination of enabling is to make operational or to make active and things along those lines...but they are saying it in a more negative context so it seems to me that they are saying maknig opperational or active, dependant of the drugs. Is this about right? or is there another definition I am unaware of? Thank you

Well, it depends on the context used.
I'm going to take a wild guess and assume the context is probably using the first definition.
