    Have you heard of something called the Bill of Rights, also known as the first ten AMENDMENTS to the US Constitution? Laws, like the US Constitution, are a living document and they can and are changed. Heck there's even Prohibition where the Constitution was amended to make alcohol illegal then changed back again because it wasn't working out so well.

      You're completely right. Though, a better example would be the changes that allowed African-Americans equal rights and equal rights for women. You'd be surprised how many people don't know that for a period of time, drinking alcohol was actually illegal in the United States.

        I recently toured some old wineries, so prohibition was on my mind. It's amazing how many wineries managed to survive prohibition by making Communion Wine. I left the tour with the impression that they must have served whole bottles instead of the thimble I'm used to.

          The Catholic churches kept that business rolling. ;)

          When I became Catholic - some of my non - Catholic friends were like is wow - look at all those bottles of wine they are serving - AT CHURCH! Lol.

          Also, don't forget the speakeasy business. The hilarious fact of the day? More people drank booze during Prohibition than any other time before. They had a very Loki style - I do what I want to.

          Hmm. That Loki style seems familiar somehow... ;)
