Yeah but when you ban the wine, everyone shot each other up.

If you ban the guns we dont know they might drink themselves to death.

Is what happened in russia.

Today on Poke ruins everything

Second, alcohol consumption declined dramatically during Prohibition. Cirrhosis death rates for men were 29.5 per 100,000 in 1911 and 10.7 in 1929. Admissions to state mental hospitals for alcoholic psychosis declined from 10.1 per 100,000 in 1919 to 4.7 in 1928.

Arrests for public drunkennness and disorderly conduct declined 50 percent between 1916 and 1922. For the population as a whole, the best estimates are that consumption of alcohol declined by 30 percent to 50 percent.

Third, violent crime did not increase dramatically during Prohibition. Homicide rates rose dramatically from 1900 to 1910 but remained roughly constant during Prohibition's 14 year rule. Organized crime may have become more visible and lurid during Prohibition, but it existed before and after.

Prohibition did not end alcohol use. What is remarkable, however, is that a relatively narrow political movement, relying on a relatively weak set of statutes, succeeded in reducing, by one-third, the consumption of a drug that had wide historical and popular sanction.

This is not to say that society was wrong to repeal Prohibition. A democratic society may decide that recreational drinking is worth the price in traffic fatalities and other consequences. But the common claim that laws backed by morally motivated political movements cannot reduce drug use is wrong.

When prohibition?

Until someone genuinely answers why not ban cigs and wine, I'll just drop this question any time it comes up to encourage the conversation [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'm waiting until someone goes on a mass killing spree with cigarette smoke

The suspected killer, Tetsuya Yamagami, 41, was tackled to the ground just moments after he allegedly opened fire on the 67-year-old former leader as he delivered a campaign speech in the western region of Nara.

In an interview with investigators, Yamagami allegedly admitted to plotting to kill Abe because he thought the ex-prime minister was connected to an organization that he bore a grudge against.

Police did not reveal the name of the organization or elaborate on what it believed in, adding it wasn’t clear if the group even existed.

The alleged assassin’s grudge did not appear to be about politics, according to police.

Is the organization the Bilderberg's? The Illuminati? What?? This could be Q anon related for all we know.

Ah, lives only matter if they are killed suddenly in one big event. Got it.

Oh wait, that's just what makes sensational news headlines. I see how you are informed and motivated. Narrative, not facts. Noted.

I guess the death penalty (just not multiple with firing squad) is back in the good graces of the left?

Annually 41,000 people die from secondhand smoke. 2x the murder rate from guns. Does it matter if they die suddenly in one big event or not?

Try using your brain.

Bro, I can either ask the person to move away or go myself from the smoke. Try asking a cold blooded murderer not to shoot or just dodge the bullet. Good luck

Your arguments are so thin and non-existent it's no surprise why no one bothers to answer you

You're either not very smart or don't take much time to think.

Also, not very inclusive of other people who may not be able or willing to ask others to move away or be able to move away themselves.

Do you ask drunk drivers to move out of your way?

Do 8-year-old kids ask their chainsmoking parents to move away?

Do you ask a cold-blooded murderer not or stab or just dodge the knife?

Do you ask the guy driving a car into a crowd to swerve?

I mean, think of the children!

When do we have a common-sense ban on personal vehicles, smoking, and drinking?

Exactly

[Castle2.0]

If they were so thin people would knock them flat in a few sentences. Funny enough, no one has any good answers.

Any good answer they make is actually just a pro-gun answer but applied to a personal freedom they choose to enjoy. Usually one that is not enshrined in the Constitution.

When people run away from a debate or turn immediately to exclusive ad hominem it's clear they have no real answers.

If you're already comparing consumer products and cars with guns instead of killing instruments, why not have a gun school and a test as requirement like you have for cars?
Why are shotguns available for 18 year olds and they're allowed to drink at 21?

You guys are too funny trying to interpret Thomas Jefferson's tea leaves to decide what's good for today's society

Jefferson didn't write The Constitution or The Bill of Rights

Hope that helps
