Do We Really Need Drunks?

 

            
             How would it feel to have someone whom you love to have been lost to the hands of an alcoholic? That's the type of situations that arise in today's society in dealing with alcohol. Making alcohol illegal is the best way for justice to be served to the innocent families and children who experience horrible dilemma due to the cause of alcohol. Illegalizing alcohol in the United states impedes innocent people from being in danger of an alcoholic because it decreases the chances of driving to a certain destination intoxicated, decreases the major role alcohol plays in more than half the automobile accidents, and diminishes domestic violence such as sexual harassment and rape. Alcohol should be banned and justice served to those who suffer when in fact they don't need to suffer at all. Alcohol should be at best set with restrictions when making the substance illegal. Alcohol causes much havoc in places such as schools, the workplace, neighborhoods, and society as a whole.
             My situation with alcohol was very drastic and left a deep embellishment of agony and hatred towards the substance called alcohol. Every time I see an alcoholic memory's come back of what happened that day of august 22, 1999. My closest friend, who will go unnamed, was in an automobile accident. He and a friend were leaving a party that night to head over to south beach and cruise around. The designated driver had high amounts of liquor in his blood stream. He was basically drunk. My friend had some drinks but still was aware of what was happening around him and where they were heading. As they were leaving the party to cruise around south beach, about 10 min away from their destination, on the turnpike and traveling at the speed of light the driver lost control or purposely went of the highway and smacked the frond end of the car into a cement block of the coast. My friend who was in the passenger side was not wearing a seat belt while the drunk was (talk about irony).
