I’ve never had an alcoholic drink and never will.

The case for banning alcohol is just not realistic given its pervasiveness in all aspects of the culture including religious ceremony. I would definitely ban all advertising for alcohol though. There’s also the issue that someone can have a limited amount of alcohol without getting intoxicated. So it’s not necessarily harmful in moderate use.

I know you’re a good poster and I’m not trying to set you up

I’m southern baptist

Moderate alcohol use is tolerated

I don’t drink either

Ive always preferred girls or my wife now of course over drink or other drugs too

Is your tee totaling religious or just self discipline or just maybe growing up and seeing the bad up close?

I confess I’ve had two folks very close to me have serious drinking issues and it was so destructive to everyone

It’s so selfish

I truly detest drunks

And Coke heads

Disease my ass

It’s a mind warp is what it is

I like the taste of good red wine and lager and Cointreau

I actually had a shot of Cointreau in Aspen on Halloween

My son recorded it to send his mom

A once in a decade thing

Really, did you post this:

So, because it is socially acceptable, we can't ban it. Oh, gotcha. Hypocrisy in your arguments much?
