I think all drugs should be severely restricted. Alcohol is the devil's stuff and is extremely advertised because it is taken for granted. The fact that people lose everything as a result is one thing, but an even worse thing is that consumption very often causes harm to others. This can often be seen at soccer matches, but also in traffic, at demos, at parties at the weekend...There are so many situations and places. Of course you can argue that not everyone is like that and that there are chaotic people. Unfortunately, it's not just chaotic people but also people who have a normal life. They think they have it under control but they don't. In marriages or relationships, one or the other woman also gets to feel it...Alcohol sucks!

There is a good case to be made for the opinion and certainly there would be some positive effects for society.

A general ban on advertising, a minimum age of 21 and a ban on playing football with a high Risk factor, for example, as well as 0.0 per mille in the car, I wouldn't say anything about that either.

Beyond that, however, it stops somewhere in terms of what the state has to dictate to me.

I would definitely find it a shame, although perhaps in retrospect because of my age😉, if I wasn't allowed to sit by the canal, Badesse, in the park or anywhere else in summer and drink a beer and have a barbecue.
If you weren't allowed to go out partying and have a drink except in special venues and then have to fire up the celebrity tester when you want to walk home.

On the beach, only people with money would be allowed to drink in beach bars with a license; those who can't afford it would be out of luck.

At home you can get drunk in Dubai, if I understand correctly, to address the issue of domestic violence.

No, I don't think much of it, but you can have different opinions, I can understand your reasoning.

Btw, such strict rules as in Dubai are of course not just a Muslim/Arab motivated thing, in Canada for example or partly also in the USA I think it is similar in public.

The Risk here is that people who know little about it will then produce these things and make them too strong. The problem is that people already know about these goods and will always want to consume them.

Everyone is responsible for themselves. The world is full of temptations. McD and co. could also be banned, as they promote obesity and the resulting diseases. However, in my opinion, they cannot be held responsible for this, as they do not force anyone to consume them. The same applies to cola and other companies that produce unhealthy food.

Edit: I think the same thing about the ban on firecrackers. In Italy (Napoli) they are produced illegally and just a few weeks ago a "production facility" (it was a normal house) blew up

What kind of restrictions on the state? It's also about protecting others, from themselves and from others. Drinking at the canal, bathing lake or whatever often doesn't stop at a beer. It's just the kind of thing that invites people to meet there and get drunk. A ban in general is not necessary, but not in public would be something. There are places like bars etc. or at home. Of course, it's inconceivable in Germany because alcohol is very important here. You can smile at it now and say it's a staple food. Unfortunately, a lot of people in Germany really do see alcohol as a staple food and are therefore alcoholics.


As far as domestic violence is concerned, that is of course true.
