On this article there is a question and you can vote:
Do you believe the state should ban caffeinated alcohol drinks?
Currently at:
Yes 26.83% (726 votes)
No 73.17% (1,980 votes)
Total Votes: 2,706
I'm one of the No's...
There is a quote in there that states, ""The Liquor Control Board has a duty to protect the safety of the people of Washington state. It has fulfilled that duty by banning these drinks."
Fulfilled? Excuse me, but this is like banning all Derricks in the state from purchasing Wild Turkey and getting drunk... ridiculous and impossible.

clearly, we need to take advantage of this dangerous beverage before it is no longer accessible. don't we have a ride tomorrow or something like that during which we could imbibe excessively and show the world that the liquor control board has reason to worry?

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.
I have a horrible, horrible drink idea that requires everyone drinking 4loko. I'll check if the 7-11's and 'that one minimart, you know?' that usually carry the stuff on the hill to see if there's even any left. I have a sneaking suspicion it's gonna be really hard to find.
Whatever, I had three cans last weekend: two in one night got me punched by a skinhead. So maybe the nanny state is working in my favor here.

the trick to finding 4loko will just be getting out of hipstertown where stuff like news of it's cancellation leads to increased consumption.
i expect that you needn't go far out of the city to find it adorning minimart shelves in abundance.

I dunno, I'd vote to ban it. Say what you will; it's excessive. Don't they boast that it's equal to 4 shots of espresso?
Sure, you can get just as drunk of Wild Turkey, or cheap beer, but that stuff doesn't taste like shitty candy. And with Wild Turkey you still have to go drunkenly buy your espresso on the side separately.

Why not let the free market run its course?
If it taste like shit and dog's ass (srsly? That's illegal in Washington) then no one will buy it and it will go away.
But noooooooooo, you all want government to step in and tell you what you can and and can't drink?
Can we just hold the election for governor today so I can vote against Gregoire already?

i have become very conflicted whilst pondering this issue, but i have learned to live with uncertainty and confusion, so i vote indifference. loko and i were buds for a long time, but one day i had to say, "Oh-bye-bud!"
