1. Please ARREST me

lol ...We are buying kiddish wine the kids love it. The actual problem with our youth today is not the alcohol or the cigarettes (another new law), it is the educational system that does not teach our kids to be good people ,never mind, Good Traditional Patriotic Jews ...and the government system (working against violence lol) who does not allow parents power over the kids. They came out with a crazy law which states that a parent can not spank his child (yeah! tell that to the kids and give power to the kids)I think that the reason for that Law was so that the Social Workers can be lazy and not do there jobs (just not enough money to cover every one.. right? better to spend it on security and a disgraceful summer of 2005,both of which could/can be avoided if we had the kohones to tell the world to get lost and protected our own )... 15 years ago you did not find Jews killing each other in Israel nor did you find many drunks. Looks like the more Laws we put down the worse the nation is getting why don't you "Cleaver Law Makers" go back to simple things like educating and allowing parents to do there jobs. If I want my 6 year old to sip Sabbath Wine (a nice Jewish tradition even for the non observant but traditional Israeli) I will and I will also buy it for him, And I know that my 20 year old Chayal does not drink (besides an occasional LE'Chayim and of course the Kiddish Wine lol)because I gave him a smack on the bum when he needed it.
2. Wait, 3 months in a cushy jail is a "punishment?"

Let them spend 12 hours a day handcuffed to the outside door telling people what they did. THAT would be punishment for giving a young person alcohol. They have plenty of years to grow, let them drink when they are old enough to be in the IDF.
