I’m not interested in how old they are (although alcohol in nature probably predates pot in nature) I’m talking about how totally, thoroughly Western Civilization is culturally tied to alcohol.

To tell Italians that the Cannabis culture that the Muslims and Asians are bringing to their nation will not be tolerated is one thing, whether it works or not, but to tell the Italian people that wine will now be banned forever from Italian culture is clearly an entirely different situation.
ALL CIVILAZATION IS TIED TO DRUGS.
FACT: Alcohol is a drug.
Some of the orginal founders of this country planted marajiuna as a crop. Government fed propaganda is getting old and tiresome.
