Alcohol abuse is frowned upon for good reason. Problems can arise as a result of alcohol abuse such as violence, vehicle accidents resulting in death or injury, neglect of family, and health problems. The important thing to do is differentiate the behavior from the person engaging in the behavior. The behavior is self-destructive and can also hurt others, but the frequent abuser of alcohol has a problem. Alcoholism is a disease. So it is not right to look down upon or hate the person; only their behavior. This does not mean that their behavior should not have unpleasant consequences. After all, consequences will hopefully move them to seek treatment and recover.
