Say Adios To Four Loko?

First they take away our Sparks, and now they want our Four Loko? While we were certain Lisa Madigan would be the first to jump on the "Four Loko is Liquid Drug" bandwagon, the Chicago City Council beat her to the punch (no pun intended). Alds. Edward Burke, 14th, and Gene Schulter, 47th have introduced a proposal to ban the sale of all alcoholic energy drinks in Chicago.
According to Chicago Breaking News, Schulter sent out a news release saying ""Quite frankly, I think it is completely irresponsible to manufacture and market a product that can make young people so intoxicated so fast."
Right, because banning anything is going to keep young people from getting as drunk as quickly as physically possible. We assume the ban of Red Bull and vodka, Everclear and Colt 45 is soon to follow, right?
