NICS for alcohol
David Moffitt
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.

Typical drivel from a radical social fascist darwinianist who doesn't
understand that driving and gubs are the privileges that need reigning
in. A man is his own decanter--unless you are theocratic statist!

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

A whole pants full of pejoratives can't disguise that fact that you
have a hardon for more oppressive governance--as long as it's your
crowd--the mustache and bellamy salute dooshbags.

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.
