Subject: NICS for alcohol
How about forbidding, for a time, those involved in alcohol-related crimes
from buying alcohol and have it enforced at the seller level? The time
interval could coincide with the duration of their probation or be forever
for alcohol-related felonies (such as vehicular manslaughter).

That is, each liquor store would have access to a database containing the
names of those ineligible to buy alcoholic beverages. Any shop selling booze
to a prohibited person would face a sanction and anyone prohibited from
buying alcohol would have his probation extended (or other penalty) for
attempting to do so.

A simple terminal gizmo connected to the state's computer could be
configured to swipe the driver's license and return an answer much like a
credit card authorization ("Approved," "Declined," "Retain DL," or
whatever).

Wouldn't cost a lot and what it did cost could be paid for by: a) An
additional, small, fee on the part of the beverage seller, and b) An
additional charge to the probation costs of the offender.

Any similarities of this plan to the NICS scheme for guns is purely
coincidental.

Any thoughts on the issue?

Really, honestly, not at all a bad idea.

But probably politically impossible.

"Maxi Pad," it would be "cute" if it weren't typical misogynist drivel.

So, if you walked on Main Street in Anytown USA, dropped trou and took
a dump - and someone suggested it was an offensive and idiot thing to
do, would you yelp "Looks like I hit a nerve?"

I sure wouldn't! I'd flip them off and yell, "can't you see I'm
extruding here!" When you phrase excretion in the language of
mechanics--it becomes acceptable, IMHO.
