hasta parece cosa de herencia. Todos fueron muy violentos... pero por la misma droga
Could you say, It almost seems as if it is inherited. All of them were violent but for the same reason-drugs.
Could you say this better? How would you improve it?
Thanks!

the same drug
I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but from how the line is I understand that they were violent because of the same drug, am I right?
I would say, but because of the same drug, or better due to the same drug.

: what if there is a missing hyphen, i.e. the same - drugs, which is what Yolanda seems to think?; however she needs to provide us with better context: Patinba also has a valid point.

it affected one's violent temper because they took drugs and it is almost as if it was because they have the same blood.
