Prohibition: Connecticut Goes Dry | CT Public | Full Documentary 

agreed. only difference is weed saves and alcohol doesn't...

@@Cam-wi5xx give it ten years before they start putting out articles on how weed is bad. Everything is a business and one has to take what they feed our brains with a grain of salt.

@@ShushaSofia They've already attempted to prove pretty much everything in the book wrong with weed and 99.9% of it was debunked. Even on the lung damage front, studies indicate that the lung tissue of an over-smoker fully redevelops rapidly if they cut down and moderate. As opposed to cigarette smokers who's lungs never fully recover once they've smoked for more than 5 years. There has been a ton of research for decades already in the UK and even in the US and very little of it has shown permanent or fatal damage unless you start as a teenager or child. Let's not forget how the FDA keeps trying to convince everyone that weed is just as bad as heroin. It's fucking ridiculous. Personally I think it's time to end ALL prohibition on ANY recreational substance. Just think about how much rehab money they're wasting pretending to care about enforcing the drug laws.

@@ShushaSofiaYou’re probably right. However, in the meantime this old widow is gonna enjoy the heck out of my eatables! And flip the bird at the pharmaceutical industry. They can all stuff (for example) their ozempic etc. lies about weight loss-HAHAHAAAAA-down their own avaricious throats.

Amen brother! But do you know what else you don't take from a man? His weed😃

cold case files

beer does that for him and his daughter

mikkelnpetersen Pills and weed and others too.

@@jenniferrojas7024 and to some don't forget Guns either!

Man, I wish...😭

Nope! 😇

Most of my friends drink that gross piss water known as American beer these days. Here I am just wanting to down straight shots of whiskey lol. But no.... everyone's always drinking PBR, Budweiser, Busch (the 2nd grossest beer) or Natty Ice (the 1st grossest beer).

It was very cheap. It was usually drank at every meal. You could pick up a bottle of alcohol for extremely cheap. You could easily brew beer at home. Stills were just about everywhere. As for your last paragraph.....I'm not sure what you are getting at. "Temperance" comes from Latin Tempero, which means to restrain. In this case, restrain from drinking.

@@WalkerRileyMC Stills were but safe drinking water was not, you do the math

It was no more rampant then than it is today. Just a bunch of preachy losers wanted to make something out of nothing. Obviously prohibition of any kind is always a bad idea, with zero chance of success.

Before 20th century water treatment technology, clean drinking water was difficult to come by. Beer & wine became part of many cultures as a substitute.

It's not that they couldn't enjoy life without drinking, it's that they preferred to enjoy it while drinking. HUGE difference. Don't let the straightedge snobs tell ya any different lol

@@captainnebulous2918 As the late, great W.C Fields once said "Don't drink water, fish fuck in it!"

It's about having your freedoms taken away by the government. We see it now... ppl who aren't (covid) vaccinated, such as myself, aren't anti-vax... we are anti the government deciding what's best for me. If the vaccination makes it so MY time with covid would be easier IF I caught it (and I still haven't) then it's MY decision whether or not I want an easier time with covid ... but we are seeing now that even the vax doesn't mean you are guaranteed an easier time with covid. It all comes down to freedom of choice. Alcohol. Vaccinations. Guns. Etc.

It's the same today.

​@@CrustyUggBased! Totally agree good Sirr.

Maybe things would have been different if Carrie had a Sybian and Motor Bunny.

Her husband died from alcoholism. That is why she was so angry about drinking.

@@sandraleehood She was an exploitive bitch. She claimed to speak directly with God. She trademarked her name after she became popular. SHE AND HER HUSBAND SEPERATED A FULL TWO YEARS BEFORE HIS DEATH. He died in 1869. She remarried in 1874. She didn't even start preaching against alcohol until 1899, a full THIRTY years after the death of her first husband. No, she wasn't pissed off about her husband dying from drinking. She just used it as an excuse.

There has never been a revolution, small or large, in the United States that did not at least start with riots and non-conformity. With the two criminal organizations we call democrats and republicans, now more than ever the only way to get real change is to exterminate the two parties.... preferably physically but I'd settle for em all having to serve their lives out in Guantánamo Bay. Problem is most things that can get the attention of the masses in a timely fashion are illegal. Then people falsely call them "criminals" for breaking the overly restrictive protest laws. The laws regarding protests are written in such a way that it discourages any meaningful protest. You basically have to break those laws to get anywhere with a protest.

Alex Goldschmied Yes, friend.

So you punish the content creator by disliking his video? Makes no sense at all.

@@captainnebulous2918 There is a thing that happens with certain ads on RU-vid. Because of the way RU-vid allows some ads to control (most likely data mining) the viewer. With Banner ads and close ad in 5 sec, when I hit the close button it also hits the full screen button. This is not supposed to happen. I have notified RU-vid 3 or 4 times and got no response so if youtube does not care I thought maybe a content creator would and they would complain to RU-vid. Then I might hear from RU-vid. Just so you know it is only with some ads not all, if the problem is with me it would happen all the time. Thank you for taking the time. Stay Safe

We should ban all unhealthy food. Most people who are obese are loosers.

+CosmosFiddler What are you talking about?

+Maeby Fünke The way he says his 'L' is in the back of the throat instead of bringing the tongue forward, touching the edge of front teeth. It would be really annoying and noticeable if he said "La, La, La", for example. It may seem picky of me, but I'm also bothered by mispronunciations by people who should be intelligent, like presidents who can't say 'nuclear' properly but instead they say 'noo-cyoo-ler'.

@@CosmosFiddler I think you're being overtly annoyed by something hardly anyone can even hear. Maybe calm down just a bit.

Just be glad he doesn't speak like a southerner lol..... they can't pronounce their i's correctly at all.
