Even the Temperance Movement had more respect for the Constitution than that. They did it the legot way, they respected the LAW, they passed a Constitutional Amendment.

There seems to be a mixed gang of thugs willing to kick the Constitution while it's down -- the nanny-state socialists with government as the Uber-Mammy, and the drug warriors, with governement as the Uber-Papa. Well many of us hold to a higher standard -- the government is a contract between adults.

Ah-ah-ah. You are entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.

Congress passed laws banning and restricting alcohol before the 18th amendment was passed.
