screw drugs, let's talk about weapons...

Guns can kill people and I'm allowed to own them.

Nuclear bombs can kill people as well, why can't I buy one legally like I can a gun? ITS NOT FAIR. WOE IS ME!!!

You'll be safer, it'll be a hell of a lot cheaper, and you'll actually remember it.

Almost all of the bad decisions/things my sister has done in her life is when she was drunk. My grandmother and grandpa are alcoholics, and she's heading down that path too..yet she can't seem to let up because it's the only way she knows to have fun now. I don't know the last time she actually went out with friends without drinking; and it's that way for a lot of late teenagers/early twenties people. It's ridiculous.

You don't have to drink to get smashed every night, and obviously that's a pretty efficient way to ruin your life

I don't know how old you are, or what kind of background you come from, but the vast majority of my friends, family, and colleagues enjoy a quiet drink every now & then.

Most of those people are successful white collar professionals, and I can't see any evidence that alcohol is ruining their lives or careers. It's not going to turn you into a dribbling retard either, whatever you may think.

Just because members of your family are alcoholics, or appear to have a clear disposition to alcoholism, doesn't mean that most of society shouldn't be allowed a glass of red wine with dinner

Just because something has the potential for abuse doesn't mean you have to prohibit it, otherwise you'd have to ban anything with a sharp edge, or indeed allowing anyone to get out of bed every day.

edit: plenty of people drink alcoholic beverages for the taste - why do you think there are so many styles of beers, wines, etc? why do you think people have beerfests, wine tasting events, and the like? (one coming up near my, by the way, but i can't go since i have other plans)

interestingly enough, the united states used to have some of the most respected beers in the world... till prohibition came, that is (history channel ftw).

so, I see that you know nothing of beer.

(and I've had wine, whiskey and rum that you can only dream of, so I'm not your average American beer drinker) I've known quite a few in the business of distributing the most premium libations on this planet...and to dismiss Beer, let alone American beer (many of which are supreme among all others), is to be sadly misinformed.

Before Prohibition, Budweiser made a decent Lager, that's about it. What they produce now certainly pales to their original brew, but that original brew is a peon compared to many of the excellent beers made in this country today. Not to mention the world-renowned wines produced in Napa and Sonoma.

i know nothing of beer because i just turned 21. but every beer i've had so far sucked compared to my good friends Captain Morgan and Jack Daniels

NO U.

He's saying that the act of ingesting a poison such as alcohol for recreational use is in-fact another version of taking a drug.

And to the moron who thinks that "drinking too much water can kill you" is a valid argument in this case; Your liver doesn't stress itself to remove water from your system, eventually damaging itself beyond repair. Your body is also not made up of mostly alcohol. What a pathetic attempt at grasping for straws, you're not even reaching in the right god damn direction... Are you drunk, by chance...?

Alcohol is a drug, of course. People that don't consider alcohol a drug are ignorant. It is, by definition, a drug.

You only believe alcohol isn't a drug because it is socially accepted. By that logic, you'd believe rape was legal if it was also socially accepted.

Alcohol kills more people than any other drug except for tobacco. No one is telling you to stop drinking; just don't be hypocrites and hate on others for their recreational activities when you're just like them.

Btw, I had an experimental phase a few years back as well as a prolonged period of smoking cannabis, but I found it to be boring after a while and quit. So no, I'm not some right wing bastard.

I drink occasionally. I don't do drugs. I don't hate on people for smoking pot. If they are however ruining their lives poppin pills, take heroin, etc I still don't hate on them. If they are any of my close friends/family then I will begin to hate.

Don't buy anything that comes in a can, or anything that comes in packages larger than 6 bottles and is sold at convenience stores.

Specifically, buy anything that says "Rogue" on the bottle.

Okay let's see. Alcohol is legal. Smoking tobacco is legal. Pot is illegal. Meth is illegal. There's a huge fucking difference there you dumbshit.

You're breaking the law, we are not. I'm not a hypocrite if I don't like druggies who break the law. But I also don't like alcoholics. I drink, but I don't get trashed and act like an asshole, and repeat every day.
