The US is way too restrictive about drinking in public- a picnic or concert in the park with a bottle of wine is one of the greatest things about Europe. Drunkness is different- no matter if it’s in unlicensed or not!
My favorite partner at my firm doesn’t drink at all and might be one of our highest paid partners. You make so many outlandish statements without proof.
Furthermore, you have shown no evidence that inhaling alcohol is bad on any level unless mixed with dry ice or heated. Once bars start doing that, we can have a conversation.
You have also never responded to why your puritanical beliefs should be forced on the rest of society, which lets us know you really have no argument as to why you are right and we are wrong
^ Yep. What crawled up your ass today OP?
Secondhand drunkenness?
I think smoking in public is so unacceptable because you’re harming those around you
I see your point. Let's go grab a drink a bar to discuss this more
NOLA
Booooooooooo
Are you arguing alcohol should be banned, or public consumption? I thought the latter, but your response above has nothing to do with that...
Strongly disagree. Favorite thing about Vegas is drinking outside in the sun.
STFU
Who the hell is the person who liked this post?
Oh get a life OP 🙄
OP- maybe consider a move to the Middle East
OP probably non-ironically advocates for smaller government and personal responsibility... And where are you hanging out? I don’t encounter rowdy people at the restaurants I go to.
OP - I just re-read all your posts - omg you really need to take a rhetoric course. You are not logical.

Go home OP, you’re a boring
I am arguing that drinking should be as frowned upon as smoking. Not illegal. Just socially unacceptable. It hurts health more than smoking, kills more people than smoking, is just as addictive as smoking. Drinkers should drink in private or other places separate from non drinkers. And they should not be allowed to leave those places while still drunk and expose the general public to the ill effects of their habit. We don't need to be exposed to the risks associated with their drunkenness. We should also tax the hell out of alcohol until it is very expensive and place more restrictions on consumption. No advertising for alcohol.
We can start with no alcohol at company events. It is shameful that companies promote these bad habits all the while talking about health and balance. Alcohol costs these companies real money in lost productivity and other impacts.
Look at the emotion in the responses here. Those are signs of dependence. Same anger as when we made smoking harder. We need to go through this for the sake of those people more than anyone as they clearly have alcohol issues.
Lmao OP you need to stop worrying about other people and live your life
Lol OP does have a point about social influences for alcohol but OP is going against millennia of entrenched human habits in a FB post which doesn't do anything but rile people up. Kudos
We need more public drinking! If someone can smoke a bowl (which I do not do, but fully support their freedom) then I should be able to pound a fifth!
