    And we tried banning alcohol - which kills people too - and ended up with even more people getting killed.

    That was a failed thing caused by the religious right.

    And the women's groups of the day.

    I think it's hilarious that the Ignorant Elitists like Dale like to blame things on the "religious right".

    They don't seem to understand that those so-called "religious right" people are no different than the Antifa of today.

    Our struggle is not "right vs. left" or "Demmocrat vs. Republican". It's between those who believe that they are the ones who need to rule over us, vs. everyone else. And this struggle is by no means a new one. The cover groups just change every so often.
