Time to put prohibition to bed

 I've wished for YEARS both democrats and republicans would DROP prohibition off their platforms entirely. An example for democrats would be gun control. Yes, that does include so called "reasonable" gun laws that aren't reasonable at all. Try applying those same rules to drinking. You have to go down to the police station and beg the chief for a license to drink. No hard liquor allowed, you are regulated to one bottle of wine or a six pack per week, you have to wait one to two weeks to pick it up after order, you have to pass a background check every time you go to buy booze. You need to provide 2 or more references, not related to you that are residents of the state you are living in(just moved in, don't have any local friends, NO LICENSE 4 U!). You have to take a drinking safety course as well.
 Considering how many people have died from alcohol related incidents, none of this is unreasonable, right? After all, no one NEEDS to drink booze.
 As for republicans, give up the war on drugs. It's none of your damn business what people ingest. Same for other "sin" laws, like prostitution and gambling. If someone wants to have a card game for money in their home or roll some dice, it is NONE of the governments business. Outlawing prostitution just leaves the women involved in that business with no where to go if they are abused.The world would be a much better place if Mr. and Ms. Morality, both left AND right stopped being busybodies and left others alone.
