In case you didn't know, the first federal gun control law, NFA '34, was a direct result of alcohol prohibition. (The BATFE was a make-work program for revenue agents, put out of work by the end of Prohibition, and the gang warfare that erupted as a result of Prohibition I.) Furthermore, a lot of present gun control laws are offspring of the Prohibition II, the War On (some) Drugs. The illustrious Kennedy Family rose to political power on the coattails of illegal alcohol profits.

Bash the criminals, not the law.
