I'd really rather get rid of the deptof the interior than buy Ballgame and concert priced drinks anywhere I went.

Would this apply to beers bought by the case in a gas station or liquor store? If so, I'd seriously consider getting one of those homebrew kits.

Do you really need a big clip that hold 17 rounds?

Do you really need a big box that holds 12 beers?

Think about the children..............................and jobs

I've read several articles about this issue, please allow to share it here. Uncontrolled drinking costs every single American about $2 per drink, according to brand new research findings from the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That's past the cost of the drinks themselves. Lost work efficiency, property damage, medical issues and the cost of incarcerating drunk drivers and thieves are all factors contributing to the runaway cost that society is forced to shoulder.
