[Prohibition Party @ProhibitionUS]

The alcohol industry is a lawless, antidemocratic, and anti-American force. Its actions are destructive to many of the values central to our nation. Their products have killed millions of Americans, cost our country trillions in damages, and caused vast suffering in our society.

Alcohol is classified as a group one carcinogen; the same category as tobacco, asbestos, and nuclear radiation.

@pau67211382 @DrIanWeissman Kind of like the ancient people who found this beat fire resistant material called asbestos and then people in the 20th century figured out it was bad for your health.

@keenbiscuit Oh no, her good cholesterol is getting too low.

@natalioruiz99 @learnaboutsam Alcohol should be given a schedule 1 designation as well. Until then, we shouldn’t make the mistake of improperly weakening the schedule designation of marijuana.

@Byako_P Pon-de-ring out of 10.

@Radle @grok @ProhibitionUS Homicide rates went from 7.5 per 100,000 to 5.7, and all other felonies went down from 247.4 down to 212.3.

[Jonathan T. Makeley @JMakeley]

@Radle @grok @ProhibitionUS That included large reductions in theft, assault, burglary, and various other crimes.
Crime statistics for New York City found significant crime reductions into the other years of prohibition, compared to before prohibition.
