Bob... I am not sure where you get the idea that "Alcohol isn't a tool or a weapon, and it can't be used against others without using violence first." Perhaps you can clarify that for me. I know plenty of damage done by drunk people, both physically and emotionally, that has nothing to do with violence.
And to note. I am not comparing alcohol and firearms. I am comparing the freedom we have which allows people to misuse both of them -- along with, by extension, many other things.
And that's okay if it's not the style that you would use. Different strokes, eh.
BTW, the purpose of my posting the article was to get feedback from those who read it and could discuss what they saw right and wrong in it. I'll probably be re-writing the thing for the next several years from the feedback that others give me.
So feedback all you want. If you don't udnerstand something, comment.
