I actually know people who've tried to convince me that's the truth.
I'm not surprised. I saw someone publish an article about how not being allowed to join a private religious association which provided ZERO public accomodations or benefits was the same as Jim Crow.
I don't know how I feel about the 21 drinking age issue. I know I drank underage in college in VT, but I didn't drink and drive.
Our university president banned drinking on campus because of DWI issues he'd seen while at Drexel. This just caused people to drink OFF campus, and may have contributed to increased driving while impaired issues.
I think enforcement of the laws, as they are written on the books, regarding identification, sucks - liquor sellers live in fear of the ABCC, and claim they can't sell to someone without any of the specific ID's mentioned - which isn't the case: if a liquor seller sells to someone who is underage, but they relied on the acceptable forms of ID's, the liquor seller is clear.
