If conservative counties can ban alcohol sales, why can liberal ones ban guns?
Alcohol is not protected by the Constitution. No, that’s not how the 21st amendment works. It only repealed the 18th amendment. Seriously, this is all it says. Section 1. The eighteenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed. Section 2. The transportation or importation into any State, Territory, or possession of the United States for delivery or use therein of intoxicating liquors, in violation of the laws thereof, is hereby prohibited. Section 3. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by conventions in the several States, as provided in the Constitution, within seven years from the date of the submission hereof to the States by the Congress. I don’t see anything in there about the right to alcohol is inalienable. In fact, Section 2 expressly states that each state determines its own alcohol laws. So, I just proved that you can make laws prohibiting alcohol. Boom roasted!
