Prohibition was repealed because it was an abject failure. It did not make the public safer last time, and I very much doubt this time around would be any different.

The claim that reinstating prohibition would prevent all alcohol-related deaths is simply not based in reality.

And the current anti-terror programs are a resounding success?
I neither said not implied anything about the anti-terror programs. I solely wanted to address your claims about reinstating prohibition, lest someone support it based on that flawed analysis.
