Prohibition first reared it's head by the religion fueled Elite's of the early 20th century, telling people how to live, and teaching people what their habits ought to be, around 1916, right around the Harrison Act's Implementation, which is when Doctors transitioned from being medical advisors to their patients, and became permission givers to their patients, by way of them being given Complete control of the pharmacy that same year. And as all of us know, anyone that ever get's control of anything, does not give it up willingly.
Well, telling people how to live, and forcibly attempting to teach a society what it's habits ought to be, and any other basic human rights that one assumes for another, negates the whole fucking concept of free!!
One supposes it goes back to the late 1800's, with all the asians from the west coast, sharing their culture of the opium dens with the white folks then, well shit, that was all she wrote......
God damn New York didn't know what hit em when the opium dens from out San Francisco's way, rolled into town..........All those Elite's of Society, and their educated and refined mannerisms and demeanors must have been fucking horrified at the site of the chinese immigrants, alongside the middle and lower class whites that took to it as well............ shit, imagine the scaremongering ads they churned out!
"Opium crazed working class whites have improved markmanship with weapons, and cannot be put down by the standard 32 caliber bullet that law enforcement uses, when high on this opium; police must go to a higher caliber bullet to even have an effect on these violent, deranged, and dangerous addicts!!! " I bet they put some doozies on print and display to scare everyone into backing that shit quick!!!!All that scaremongering..........still, though, hard to believe that society was too naive to just simply see through the hypocrisy, and on to the basic fact of.........
Putting a mind altering drug into one's own body, is no different than deciding for oneself what food that individual will choose to eat every day, or whether or not they will exercise everyday, and what days they will...........none of these are things that another member of one's species CAN even tell them whether they can or cannot do!! Where does that dumber than a bag of hammers naivety even arrive in the scene?? fucking amazing
That's where one arrives at all the confusion... the buyouts, payoffs and selling of people's core values to go along to get along, is expected.......... but the public's brain-dead ass, roll-over-on-command mentalities back then............pitiful!
