213. So which were you-- WCTU or ASL?
And nice attempt at spin.

Face it, the temperance movement fell flat on their collective asses. They managed to pass prohibition and what happened? Crime skyrocketed with the rise of the criminal organizations rushing to fill in the demand. When did it drop? Oh that's right, with the repeal of prohibition.

But you keep banging that drum and marching, I'm sure someone, somewhere, will give a damn.

Just don't expect the rest of us to march along.
