    Banning energy beers...

    So the guv'mint thinks that it's a bad idea for companies to manufacture malted beverages containing caffiene, tuarine, guarana, and other jack-you-up additives that cause some noobs (read sorority/frat punks/bitches and other young underage idiots (who shouldn't be drinking anway) whose immature tatsebuds are still hooked on sugar sweet sodas) who can't handle their drink and become 'wide awake drunk'. Me, personally, I handle(d) it. Any time I drank the stuff I passed out like with any other libation I have partaken of. Not that it is even an issue to me as a consumer. I don't even drink the stuff anymore as i got bored with it. Anyway the questions I'm posing are:

    1: Are they going to do anything about mixing red bull with liqour in the bar setting? Isn't that the same thing but even worse? The jooses, four lokos and tilts are only 9-12% alcohol by volume. Jagermeister (the libation most commonly mixed with red bull) is 35% alcohol by volume. And...

    2: Is this some kind move being made because the low cost buzz merchants are cutting into the profits the red bull/jagernaut?

    Joose, Four Lokos,.. That used to be my drink man. I stalked up on that sh*t the last day before it became illegal. I sold some and drank more. That's unconstitutional for the government to ban it though. Alcohol and caffeine are legal so the government doesn't have the right to interfere with anyone mixing the two. Regardless, I can mix a Red Bull with the sh*t to make basically the same thing.

    Good point about both substances being legal.

    Lmao. Unconstitutional. Stick to illegally selling alcohol, you're career prospects as a lawyer specializing in constitutional law look bleak.

    Yeah, I've seen the new labeling too. Doesn't matter to me. I'm still done with these products. Too much sugar.
