Think about all the horrible, horrible accidents that have killed and maimed so many peoople, drunk driving which has been addressed
all the marriages that have been destroyed: marriages are destroyed by all kinds of things, not just booze. I bet more marriages have been ruined because of adultery than booze or abuse (verbal or physical).
all the babies who have suffered from fetal alcohol syndrome.: there is no law against people being stupid. Unless you "fix" every stupid woman who will do something dangerous to her fetus, you can't stop it
Not to mention the unbelievable amount of money that has been wasted on alcohol that could have been spent on the greater good: I don't tell you how to spend your money, don't tell me how to spend mine.
Not to mention the massive amount of time that has been spent in a bar drinking after work instead of spending that time with a wife and family so are you saying that only men drink and spend time in bars??? How about people who have affairs who "work late" or people whose jobs keep them away from their families often. These are choices we make. They aren't always pretty. There are plenty of people who stay at home with their families and yet spend no time with them. They are each off in their own little world.
I'm not asking for the world to hand out birth control to teens so they don't get pregnant but I hate that so many teens are becoming parents. I don't ask that tobacco be banned even though I detest it with every oz of my soul. We don't live in a bubble wrapped world. Crap is gonna happen
