    Did you even read the article?

    They know alcohol causes issues and they say so themselves, they don’t ban it because it would be harder to hire staff, they don’t mind the bad consequences including rapes.

    That’s a load of bullshit and dry towns and communities already exist for the exact same reasons, they just don’t care about people’s safety. That wouldn’t be asking people to stop liking alcohol, that would be asking them to give it up temporarily and if you’re unable to consider doing that then I’ve got bad news about your relationship with it.

    Anyway, it’s not as if it was the only thing people going there have to give up on and it’s not as if you were ever going to work there.

    But hey, keep fighting the good fight buddy! 👍

      You are making some logical leaps. Just because certain rapists like alcohol does not mean everyone who likes alcohol is a rapist.

        Never said so, but when you’re in an isolated community and you know X causes major issues for a minority you adapt to the weakest links in the chain if X is non essential. Like alcohol.

        Eh… I have a couple of craft beers every week but I don’t like alcohol?

        You might not want to hear that but if you consider that being allowed to drink alcohol is more important than preventing rapes and fights you might want to take a step back and think about how much you like alcohol… Especially since it’s a conversation about an isolated community, not just any other city that people can leave whenever they want to…
