Somebody should give them a rundown on Prohibition. It failed almost 100 years ago and it would fail today. Anyone can go to the internet these days and find recipes for making alcohol.

Given what happened during Prohibition, that will NEVER happen. For one thing, it would require another Constituional amendment, and we know how hard it is to get another Amendment on the books....

Just like with guns they want to blame the object rather than the actual offender. If you want to reduce drunk driving then get serious about sentencing offenders. How about this

1st offense - 6 months in jail, no exceptions
2nd offense - 2 years in prison, no exceptions
3rd offense - life in prison, no exceptions

I’m guessing people would think twice about getting behind the wheel if any of these sentences were on the table.

How many people are stopped for DUIs after having dinner and a cocktail? Most DUI offenders are repeat offenders with BAC way over .10. In some cases, it's up to .15.

These people just won't quit. MADD is a prohibitionist group now. They used to educate people on the dangers of drunken-driving. Now they're just another leftist group promoting their pet cause.

Does anyone EVER learn anything from history???? Is it just hubris or stupidity that convinces every generation that it can do “it” better?

Man, they are just getting pot legalized and now they want to take away alcohol?

What does the NAS say about smoking pot and driving, and your lungs?

Prohibitions are back. Are we seeing a pendulum swing in American values? #me too, now this? I know as a man I am not allowed to say this but #me too. But I some how survived it. But I was raised to be emotionally tougher. I grew up as part of the sticks and stone society.

These people are insane. It’s all about power and control. This kind of thing cannot be implemented without nazi-like tactics, which is what these people want.
We didn’t elect them to become the nazi gestapo.
