- One of the darkest chapters of Prohibition was the government's use of toxic additives in industrial alcohol to deter drinkers. On Christmas Day 1926, 66 people died as a result.

They do the same thing to rubbing alcohol. Poison it so that people won't get a cheap drink.
maybe used the same recipe
Isopropyl alcohol is intrinsically poisonous. I believe you are referring to methylated spirits or denatured alcohol.
@@Seeds-Of-The-Wayside he’s referring to older rubbing alcohol, back when they did use methanol
@@thatblastedflyfish9515 methanol is also intrinsically toxic. Perhaps you mean ethanol.
Poisoning the poison
They still do it. It's called denatured alcohol.
Yeah, and they also did it before Prohibition, since 1906 (since it made industrial alcohol not be subject to the same taxes as drinking alcohol)
@@n0ame1u1 Nothing has changed it eats right through your gut and eats the metal in the cars. So everyone will have to buy electric cars. Methanol is green energy. It's synthetic (bacteria) and I"ll stop there.
@cherishedcatlover2943 Vitamins and supplements BEWARE!@!!
And it's called FENTYNAL
@@n0ame1u1it was taxed for good reason and still is taxed for good reason today (consumption alcohol)
Just like opiates today
I wonder how many people have died from liver damage caused by acetaminophen overdose
@@worsethanjoerogan8061that’s rather irrelevant and more so furthers the significance of trying to break the addiction of alcohol
Now they use fentinol... ahem.
Santa: “LITTLE JIMMY WAIT!!! IM SORRY IT’S LATE BUT I HAVE THE SIGNED BASEBALL BAT YOU ASKED FOR AT AGE 10!”
ngl smashing all those bottles looks pretty satisfying
Who investigates the FBI??
Now imagine what they are doing now
I wish it could be determined precisely where these bottle & barrel smashing events occurred, as seen in the film footage here or in photos seen in books on the era. It just would be interesting for history buffs like me to be able to associate specific, known places where Prohibition-events occurred, for it seems Prohibition left few if any detectable traces, at least that are above ground & easily accessible today. It also would be extremely interesting to see how such sites have changed during the intervening decades, i.e., street corners, lots, parks, railroad yards, warehouse truck terminals, neighborhoods, etc. This used to be a period of U.S. history I didn't understand & to which I gave little attention. In the last several years, however, I've become very interested indeed in those fascinating times. As a result, I'd find it alot of fun to follow a "Prohibition Trail", though I know of no source that could help me out. By the way, last I heard, the Prohibition Party still exists & puts-up candidates for all levels of political offices, including presidential.
Cue The Star Spangled Banner.
Love the way they lived bk then thanks for the soup kitchen
Thanks govt. Add Poison to a Poison
Seriously, it's already responsible for enough deaths then and now w/o the additional poison
@cherishedcatlover2943 Recycling the waste of the waste... not kidding. Even the mountain men would through it out but not not the govt.

I hate it so I don't buy it. Make weed legal and let anyone have guns. Abolish the federal government.
Texas Citzen Weed + Guns. Nothing could go wrong...
@@chunks6856 if it isnt guns it's knifes...
@@chunks6856 9/10 I’d rather get shot while high, then stabbed.
Do you want chaos and death then with a government to enforce the law?
You think thats bad you should read about the chemicals in your drinking water that cause cancer lol... I'm going on 60 and i haven't had 1 drink of water since 3rd grade seriously! And i still look like i'm 30 and never aged... And no cancer...
That's some serious anecdotal evidence there.
What do you drink? Out of bottle?
Short ass video
Alcohol is Poison by Definition at least Human body recognized as such!
That is government for you.
Cough cough covid 19 what huh??
😮
WTFFFFFFFFF
Well it's a shame it didn't work...maybe they should try it again. We've still got deadbeat abusively drunk fathers & DUI car crashes we're dealing with due to that vile crap.
*The prohibition law shouldn't have been lifted*
Thousands die due to intoxicants every year. It has also led to the destruction of countless families.
Like God Almighty says, There is benefit in Alcohol and Gambling. But the loss is greater than the benefit
Chummy Chimchim but then you have an endless war against gangsters and outlaws, it's futile to ban a substance that's been around for at least 10,000 years, congruent to the dawn of human agriculture
What have You been drinking if your hearing God talk to you hahaha
Legalizing and then regulating is the best way to keep people from dying. It's been proven by example a number of times.
Can't impose your will on others. It's not my will. I don't drink but my dad does it's killing him but his choice. Any path we choose is tragic we all die.
@ezraoberheim1081, not really. It just makes things more expensive and more unattainable
Well alcohol is poisonous anyway, so I guess it really never made a difference🙃.
Maybe these people back then if they were to follow the law actually abstained from alcohol then they would still be alive years later.
NSB'er?
Yeah cause life is all about following rules. In fear of death. go live in Russia or china then.
Reverse psychology works Wonders. Look at you Now.
