Al Capone's gang lined up members of the North Side gang in their garage and shot them.
The North Side gang was awaiting a shipment of illegal alcohol at the time.

Was this massacre the result of American citizens continuing to drink alcoholic beverages
during Prohibition or was it the result of an idiotic, failed law?

Solution:
Decriminalize cannabis which accounts for 90% of illegal use.
Harm reduction/medicalisation for other drugs as in Switzerland.

Of course sensible policies, which have worked in Europe, are something the US is not interested in.
