Comment on Bigger steps needed to fix the grog and the violence by Virgil Dotson.
I live in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Beer wine and liquor is sold in all service stations, grocery stores and local shops. Beer in 6, 12, 24, 30, and 36 can packs. Wine in small bottles or gallon container and large boxes. Hard liquor by the liter, no limit. This is sold 24/7.
I cannot remember the last time I saw a drunk in public. We are the same people as yourselves and had the American Indian. I did see a drunk neighbor once.

Reminds me of the story of a workman who dropped a large wrench into the bore (well). They worked for several days to retrieve it. The boss handed the wrench to the workman and said, “your fired, get off”. The workman took the wrench and dropped it back into the well and said: “Guess I won’t be needin that anymore.”
