DiogenesLamp doesn't agree that alcohol Prohibition was a failure - and when presented with evidence that it was, retreats to his self-contained reality where all evidence presented against substance bans is deemed unreliable because it's been presented as evidence against substance bans.

How can you justify the converse? Something already kills 65,000 people per year, and we need another one? Why would we want another one?
