Persausive Writing

The state of Georgia needs to consider making alcohol illegal. It is a very good idea for the state Of Georgia to this. It will be a progress for our community. A lot of stupid accidents are made because of someone who chooses to drink. Alcohol is 70% responsible of the deaths that occur on accidents. Innocent people die everyday because of someone who decided to drink and drive. It’s really not the persons fault because when you drink something just triggers your mind and it makes you think that you have some kind of control over it but you really don’t. Drinking should be illegal in the state of Georgia.

A lot of accidents happen when people are drinking. I’ve heard of girls getting raped because of being drunk. Car accidents normally occur when drinking. That’s because when someone is drinking or drunk they think that you’re able to do things that you can normally do when you’re not intoxicated. What I am trying to say is that if you get drunk you are most likely to do things that you would never do when you’re sober. You cannot stay focused even though you think you are.

I’m usually around drunk people at least three days out of a week and I can tell when someone is drunk. I would never even put a liquor bottle up to my lips I, haven’t even tasted liquor before, and don’t plan on it. Seeing the way that they act makes me not even want to try it because when im around somebody who has been drinking they act different. Most of the time drunk people get meaner and tries to pick fights for no reason. That’s why I don’t try to drink because I don’t need to get angry for no reason. It also causes problems for someone when they get sober because they say things to people that hurts them and when you wake up the next morning you don’t remember everything and think that everything is fine. That I know from experience because I go through much.

I’ve asked people why they drink, and nine out of ten of them said because of stress and pressure. Some people said because it makes them feel good. Some of them also said because it makes them happy. None of these are good reasons. To me there just a bunch of sorry excuses. After a person get sober again the problem is still going to be there and it will probably make it worse by getting drunk and ignoring it. It doesn’t make you forget things it just makes you lost your memory so you won’t think about it.

I know a woman that has kids that have been taken from her because of her drinking problem and I asked her would she consider giving up her drinking to be with her kids. She said no, and that she would rather have liquor than to be with her children or have a roof over her head. She said she would rather be homeless if that’s what it takes to have her liquor. It really did hurt me to my heart when she said that because how can you not love someone who you gave birth to. I wouldn’t choose anything or anyone over my child. I also will do anything that I could possibly do to make my child’s life better. Two of her older children asked her why don’t she love them and she said I love liquor more than anything because it’s the joy of my life and it makes me happy.

Young adults do not realize what kind of damage can happen to them and innocent people while drinking and driving. Most people that have had a couple of drinks think that they can control driving the correct way but it’s a mind thing. Even if you think you are not drunk you really are, and even if you’re careful or not the results can still be dramatic. Think about it even if someone hits you from behind, if you have been drinking then you will end up paying the other person money, get in trouble with the law, and the damage that is done to our car will not be covered by insurance or the other driver.
