And I'll answer: Because someone is going to bother someone.

But to quote Twain, thats just saying that nobody is allowed to have steak because a baby cant chew it.
I didn’t say it was the government’s issue. I just said the change would hurt bars and pubs. I don’t think there’s really any denying that either. Again I’m not opposed to open consumption, I just think the opinion that it makes no difference ignores the indirect impact.
