What were these people thinking??? Look I'm about as conservative right-wing fundamentalist christian as a 25 year old can get, and I see absolutely no reason to ever consider banning alcohol. But in a way, I'm pretty relieved, taking the liberal side of an amendment makes it a lot easier to find videos.
Yes, I actually think this makes a point. When people are just forced into not having a substance they have grown accustomed to, they go crazy. Trust me, I have given up smoking, felt a lot like Homer there for a while. However I was quitting for my wife and for my family, if it was some ugly woman and a bunch of idiots in the government telling me to quit I would have been to the nearest smoke-easy for a 50 dollar pack of reds.
"Well Mr. Conservative, if you're so against prohibition, why are you against marijuana." I'm not. I've never touched the stuff, I think it makes you stupid, but it should be legal. Harder drugs should not be legal because they are unquestionably and extremely harmful to the addicts that use them.
