The article I'm responding to is about Australia confiscating (and banning) guns. That is hardly a "nuanced" policy and (I claim) is equivalent to banning alcohol to stop drunk driving deaths.
- spicyusername 4y ago> is equivalent to banning alcohol to stop drunk driving deaths. This is something most countries do for repeat drunk drivers. Ban them from driving, anyways. Most people do not have a problem with such a targeted law. It's conceivable that a law banning repeat drunk drivers from consuming alcohol might have positive effects as well.
- AnimalMuppet 4y agoI seem to recall reading about a program that did exactly that. You could be sentenced to not drive, or you could be sentenced to not drink. I don't recall the details, but I think I read about it within the last six months or so.
