The point is acknowledging sensible prohibitions on, for example, the sale of alcohol to minors can be measurably and beneficially effective, and abandoning all attempts to crack down on vice because "prohibition never works" is misguided.
- the_only_law 4y agoPlease explain then. How in the hell is: > The first sentence simply isn't true. Vigorous law enforcement can substantially curtail illegal drug trafficking, for example. Singapore does not have a fentanyl abuse problem. They also hang drug traffickers. An acknowledgment that “sensible prohibition” such as controlling the sale of alcohol to minors can be effective? Unless you consider hanging 18 years olds who have a few drinks “sensible prohibition”.
- farmaway 4y agoI think I've explained very clearly. Sorry if my perceived pedantry made you or the OP upset.
- the_only_law 4y agoJust say what you mean in the first place ffs.
