“it was forced upon them”
Nonsense - they had the option to vote no.
“the future deaths it would cause”
As I’ve pointed out twice already, DUIs rose sharply during Prohibition.
“And the politicians didn’t do this?”
The politicians and the citizens did it together.
“The politicians and the citizens did it together.”
They used to call this the forest for the trees. How can someone do something together if the outcome is determined by one side, and the other side cannot change it to what they want without stopping the process? That’s not doing it together, that’ the voters being led by the ear and told what they are going to get, period. The only thing the states did there was say they wanted alcohol so bad they’d be willing to be controlled under the laws and treated like the sheep you say they are acting like under a blanket policy you dislike which causes arrests for people breaking the law they accepted.
Give me a solution or don’t bother me with this.
