DC’s ABC thinks you’re stupid

That’s the only conclusion I can come to, anyway. Why else would they have a proposed rule to make alcohol retailers put up a sign stating that:

Drinking and driving is dangerous
Drinking alcohol when pregnant is dangerous
Drinking and driving is illegal in the District

The rules are in comment period now, so if you really have a problem with this you can send your observations to the board in the next thirty days. I imagine nobody’s going to complain – aside from the pointless cost of making these signs and retailers having a little less wall space for neon Corona signs, this isn’t the kind of government action that whips people into a froth.

I’m considering sending in an suggestion that they add “Fire hot, water wet.”
