    Why are you people so bad at reading, or are you just trying to misdirect?

    You either missed the point entirely - or you’re trying to ignore it. But that’s why we use simple language and conveyance to dismiss such tomfoolery.

    Pure ethanol… right? Pure ethanol is illegal to sell as a beverage. With me so far? But ethanol… is the effective ingredient in alcohol. Understood? Good.

    You keeping a bottle and drinking it… is not the same as distributing it as a beverage in say a store, a bar, your grandma’s house, etc… Yes? We can’t make it illegal for you - that’s you in your private home - to destroy your body by drinking it yourself. Agreed?

    But… if you then… go give that bottle to someone without informing them “hey bro, this is pure ethanol - this shit’ll burn your cornia”, and by neglecting to do so, they go blind when drinking it? That’s what we call wilful negligence - in legal speak.

    If you do that, then you deserve time in prison for wilful negligence and causing bodily harm to someone. Right?

    Or… are you some sort of psychopath? Or perhaps a libertarian? I’m a socialist libertarian, so let me know if you need to learn something about why law is still important and why causing harm to others - be it intentional or not - should be illegal. Here’s a hint: we still need licenses for running major industrial machinery for a reason.
