My compassion is earned by the victim at hand, not given away by individuals who like to appropriate other men's resources such as yourself.

Where did pstuart say anything about "appropriat[ing] other[s'] resources"? What really motivates your obvious visceral disdain for alcohol?
The fact that its addictive and damages people. That should be the illegal thing: using a factory to make things that people get addicted to and it harms them.

People 1000 years from now are going to look at us in the way we look at witch trials. Likt wtf bro? Why don't you go making bombs that get set off on a hair trigger and just lay them around? They only hurt once in a while if you get them close to your face.

Wtf really? Well you see, it was addictive! And... We really liked it! mmm hmmm. I can think of better defenses for the witch trials.

My mother was an alcoholic and her abuse of it killed her. Millions of other people are able to use it responsibly.

Would you care to dance around and laugh and sing "ha ha, your mommy's dead and the bitch deserved it!" Because that's the tune you're carrying.

Today we have an obesity epidemic that is responsible for significant health problems. By your logic all food should be poisoned too. You are one sick fucker.

So let me get this straight, your mom died from alcohol and I still here you defending it? I guess I tripped your cognitive dissonance algorithms, your genetic line can't simultaneously be 'good' and the thing that caused great damage in it also good. So the defective party must be the one pointing out the truth in the situation.
