Ban the sale of nips and pints of alcohol in the State of MA

Ban the sale of nips and pints of alcohol in the State of MA

The Issue

We The People think nips and pints of alcohol should be banned in the State of MA.  It is a known FACT that alcohol is poison to the body and mind and we believe public access to it should be limited.  These small doses are cheap, easy to grab and are concealable enough to be consumed while driving, at school or elsewhere in public.  These “chasers” are dangerous, and the sale of them is not in the best interest of the public.  They promote underage drinking due to their cost and flavors and fuel alcoholism overall at an alarming rate.  Plastic nip bottles litter the roadways and elsewhere, since many throw them out of the windows of their vehicles after drinking them.  Alcoholism not only destroys the lives of alcoholics; it does the same to anyone involved, as well as to innocent others who are hurt or killed by drunk drivers.  People lose their jobs, houses, families and lives to alcoholism, yet any one of us has easy access to it.  Access to cheap, concealable doses of this damaging drug must be stopped if the sale of all of it will not be.
