Yes, I would like to see Alcohol prohibited. Won't happen, because of "freedom" loving people like yourself, who don't have any concept of responsibility, nor any real interest in learning anything about what it means. Or, you delegate that to someone else. Responsibility is always someone else's problem for you hyper-free disciples. And what if some unfortunate soul is poisoned by wood alcohol? Is that worse than some kid killed/murdered on the road by some idiot who had the legal ability to drink? And now we have all these wonderful people who know A-Z about freedom, but know less than nothing about responsibility. LOL, what a combo! But you're right, Wolf: let's raise a new generation of dope smokers, crackheads, and others "geekin" for 2-3 days on end without sleep. That's better than any society that is responsible and knows that these things are counter-productive. In the persuit of freedom, why don't we allow murder, no speed limits on freeways, and allow companies to trade illegally on the stock market with pension money, and other wise and thoughtful new ideas that exalt personal "freedom" over every other consideration?

One day, when the man comes to take away your freedom, and he will since most of your don't have the slightest idea that that word really means, you will give it to him, and without a word, much less a fight. Then you will know, but that knowledge will be useless to you then. Who you gonna call then? Bob Barr and the ACLU? LOL, they will probably be the ones who come to drag your sorry, dope-smoking buns off to camp.....

Easy, trigger, easy. After ten years in uniform, the concept of responsibility and I have bumped into each other here and there. I completely understand your disgust with today's society, and their absurd self indulgence. In many ways I hear what you're saying. I just think you're just missing the bigger point.

Lots of people in America are killed, maimed, and damaged by their own stupid choices every day.

Lots of people in other countries are killed, maimed, and damaged by their own government for little to no reason every day.

The ones in America who make dumb choices can learn from them, grow, and become better people, or they can keep screwing up. What a country!

Many people in other counties lead stable, regulated lives that come to nothing. They'll live like that for generations, until they get out from under the whip, and get to start making their own mistakes.

What it comes down to is that you must have faith in the concept that America, for all its many faults, is better because our people, for good or evil, enjoy their lievs, liberties, and pursuits of happiness, without being forced.

If not, there's plenty of people in the world who would be more than happy to tell you what to do, if you're interested.

Forced virtue is as appealing a lie as total freedom.

This arguement always comes up, the 'If we can't ban marijuana, why have laws at all?'. When random killing is morally equivalent to being unproductive, I'll be right on board with you.

They won't have to try hard with you, Malcom, you don't seem to want it anyway. I'm sure they'll have plenty of responsibility for you, though.

These buns don't smoke dope, and never have. I've made my mistakes in other places, and don't need to repeat them. But I wouldn't be who I was without the freedom to make those choices.

Are you aware that we've tried this? Do you know how that turned out?

Alcohol is legal; have the last several generations of Americans been "generations of alkies"?
