But alcohol wasn’t banned under Prohibition – the sales were. I personally see good and bad parts to Prohibition, but wouldn’t support it for alcohol. That doesn’t mean my opponents are idiotic though.

Uh, no, the sale, manufacture and transportation of alcohol was prohibited. You couldn't make it, you couldn't sell it, and you couldn't transport it. That pretty much covered all the bases.

Sales covers transport of course. But, yes, you could make it at home and some beverages like low-alcohol wines were also allowed.
