Prohibition isnt just for alcohol

The United States government has a tendency to focus on legislation through prohibiting or the prohibition of things from trans fats in restaurants to alcohol. Since the 1920s prohibition of alcohol, the government has continued this practice and has continued in excess according to Lori Roman. She says it is up to the American people to insist that they, not unelected government bureaucrats, make decisions about what they eat and drink.

I think the government should stop sending people off to unnecessary wars for the benefit of war profiteers.. That would save a lot of lives.

Actually, the Constitution promises life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.. Although cigarettes do carry carcinogens, they are NOT illegal, and thusly there should not be any regulations on HOW they are used. Age regulations, sure- but what you don't realize is everytime the government places a restriction on the things we do, we grow one step further from the very freedom the Constitution promises us.

Stick that in your juicebox, and suck it.

@cockslappah

the constitution is about protecting peoples' rights, such as protecting them from other peoples' cancer clouds and drunken violent people

you have the right to use drugs as long as it doesnt infringe on the rights of others. so do it at home.

@cockslappah

-- i don't like people trying to take away my rights to having a good time and relaxing with a nice little newport after a long day of work. hell, to be honest, i don't even drink. i'm not a fan of drunk people either.

however i personally feel violated that people like you are trying to tell other people what they should and should not be doing. i feel that by not letting me exercise MY rights, it is YOU who is infringing upon ME. i feel we had a happy medium, that you're ruining.

@signboyy

you're an idiot. first of all, it's speech.* if you're going to burden the world exercising it, at least know how to spell your exercised right, at the very least.

meds? in place of alcohol (something a lot of people use simply for a good time) and smoking (smoking sections, asswipe.)? yes, why don't we sedate the few free-spirited people left in our society. nowhere in the constitution does it say anything about protection from smoke and drunk. you just don't like it. --

If your gonna ban alcohol you may aswell ban fast food!

[signboyy]

you only have the right to do something if it doesnt infringe on the rights of others.

drunkenly harrassing people and making them walk through your cancer clouds on the sidewalks infringes on their rights.

[signboyy]

yeah there probably will be a black market for it.

but if its a 1000 dollar fine for public drunkeness and smoking cigarettes in public people will decide to only do it in their homes.

and then i can walk on a public sidewalk without walking through cancer clouds and being harrassed by drunk people.

lol buff guys are gay?

[anonymous0s0egion]

See i can exhibit equivocation fallacies as well.

Dude read up on the alcohol prohibition of the 20's if you criminalize this shit you're just going to create a new black market.
