“A better solution would be to triple the price of beer.”

Not. For those who want to drink, it won’t matter really, they’ll still buy six or whatever. They’ll just be in a worse mood.

Expensive beer would just penalize everyone for no reason. Sounds like a Dem solution really. ;-) Just like the “no beer” policies on the beach now in my home state - penalize everyone when there are already laws on the books against the behaviors that supposedly caused problems: public disturbance and drunkenness, urination, and DUI. But now, perfectly law abiding citizens can’t legally have a beer or a glass of wine with dinner during a beach cookout.

Folks carrying guns accept many limitations on their behavior if they’re responsible. Not drinking is one of them. Self control - what a concept.

Good point. Problem is, those who would cause problems never exhibit self-control.

And the net result will be that people just put clear vodka into a water bottle.
