No understand what you are saying completely. I respectfully disagree.
As I said, when alcohol was illegal, all these things were greatly reduced. When it became legal again, all these things greatly increased.
No, making alcohol illegal does not eliminate domestic abuse. But it did reduce it by far. Do some research on domestic abuse that is alcohol related, you'll be shocked. Do some research on marriages that fail that are alcohol related, I know two couples right off the top of my head that I personally know divorced over one being a lazy drunk. In fact, go to the Darwin awards and check out the number of award winners that were drunk at the time.
The national institute for health said this "Alcohol use also contributes to approximately 500,000 injuries, 600,000 cases of assault and over 70,000 incidents of sexual abuse or date rape annually among college students aged 18 to 24".
This is what you call making drinking safer? Call me crazy, but let's make drinking less safe, and make living safer for students in college. Let's have a few hundred more deaths from drinking unsafe illegal beer, and have 70 thousand less rapes and abuses. 600 thousand less cases of assault.
Safe Drinking is nearly a joke, a joke that ended for Brad at 21 years of age. Again, no, making alcohol illegal will not eliminate all these problems completely. But I fully believe, without question, it will reduce these problems by far.
I believe the same for drugs. Legalizing them will cause millions more divorces, millions more in assaults and abuse and broken homes.
