^^^ A few miscreants have changed the world for all of us...

Better to deal aggressively against the few law breakers than change the laws against the vast majority...
It's against their rights.

I was a young man when my mother told me how when I was small I would not go to sleep, crying in my crib. So she fed me whiskey to get me to sleep.
I blame her for my drinking habit. That habit remains today :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Remember the sugar cube with orange liquid on it for polio? I'm guessing about 1961.
Then this weird vacinnation that was like 6 short needles. I still have the white scar on my upper arm.
I remember getting a vaccine for something (polio?) where they put a drop of green liquid on your skin then scratched it a few times with a needle. For some reason they did it on boys' arms, but girls' thighs. Would have been late 50s. Don't remember getting anything on sugar cubes.

YKYO if you added baking soda to a Cracker Jacks submarine to make it work.

I suspect that may have been a regional thing, or even varying by a particular doctor's practice or hospital. All of the older women in my family have/had a scar on the upper bicep, which I remember them telling me as a polio vaccine scar.

Bubble type dispensing machines you had to turn the handle on to get your prize. There was always a mini-spy camera on top of the pile. I suspect now, this was never something you could ever win, as the re-stocker would re-set it on top of the pile. Really wanted one of those cameras. Never got one. There are collector groups now, devoted to 'using' these, kid toys, to actually take pictures. :)
