Vodka looks like water, should they make it pea-green so it doesn't look too much like water?
Cough syrup comes in cherry flavors and contains alcohol, should it be sold in a state liquor store?
Was your son able to buy it?
Say someone 21 years old went to the liquor store to buy some "alcopops" at 3.2 percent and while he was there, it was next to some Everclear (80% alcohol, or something, I forget), thought that would be cool, so he got some of that, too. Now the manufacturers have just drawn the casual drinker in for the hard stuff rather than keeping them browsing the beer cooler at the grocery store. Is that good?
Notice that I said it doesn't bother me that it's sold in the grocery store. You're asking the wrong person.
