Booze for thought

[Blarg]

I wonder what the Founding Fathers would have thought about banning alcoholic beverages?

 

 

 

They must have been drunk off their asses creating the Constitution and Bill of Rights and leaving a loophole that allowed for the 18th Amendment.

Man what a non-stop party 1830 was.

The good old days. No gun registration, pot and cocaine were legal and women couldn't vote.

Coincidence?  I think not!

[Jason]

I guess alcohol and guns are similar in that not everyone should use them. I enjoy my whiskeys and wines but haven't been drunk in 15 years. I don't ever drink and drive either. Responsibility goes a long way.

Let people ingest what they want; alcohol, blow, cigs. They're going to do it anyway. Make them ingest it away from the public and stop with the jailing. 

 

Just wanted to turbo boost the thread.

 

No doubt.

 

You don't see people going to jail for eating In and Out 4x4's daily and I'm sure health/obesity deaths are more abundant.

This.

 

Apparently prohibition taught us nothing. If there is a demand for something it will be met, legally or illegally. The so-called "war on drugs" has only led to drug dealers carrying automatic weapons instead of flowers, and a lot of people being locked up in our prisons.

 

If someone gets intoxicated on whatever substance and harms someone, they should suffer the consequences. However, what other people do in the privacy of their own homes is of no concern to me as long as they aren't harming anyone else.

And they could make all the black people do the shit they were too drunk to do.

That's fine. I have several. Come and take them. Don't send anyone else. You.

 

 

YES! A CHALLENGE! This is serious biz, people.

[Blarg]

Was he referring to cats?

Yeah, you tell him!

btw, you were great in Ben-Hur

I can't believe 5 beers per night constitutes binge drinking. That doesn't seem like that much. Five 40 ouncers maybe, but 5 regular 12 ounce beers? A bunch of lightweights must have conducted that study.

Guy pulled an AK-47 on me and I chucked up my 10 shots of fireballs on it and the barrel melted.  Booze kills guns.

I've never played that variation of Rock Paper Scissors.

it doesn't constitute binge drinking, it points to alcoholism.

[Ray McKigney]

Well, that isn't what the study said. It said that 5 or more drinks per night is binge drinking. I call 5 beers after a long day of work mellowing out.

It's rude to point.

These studies need to quit contacting MT for their answers.  They would have asked me my answer is 5 beers and some good mexican for lunch constitutes a real good nap. 

[AngelsLongBall]

5 beers doesn't even prime the pump in this house

[Brandon]

I guess I need to make sure my 5 drinks really count then.
