i don’t see the relevance. does the fact that kids need a plug make it any better? being applied inconsistently and unpredictably couldn’t make a regulation work better imo
How can it not be relevant? One law penalises and criminalises people for consuming a harmful drug, i.e. the victims. The other penalises the people gleefully selling them the harmful drug. These parties are not equally liable for the damage done. There is no incentive to ‘chug five in their room’.
This is not a law against children drinking energy drinks, this is a law against stores selling them to children.

Alcohol laws work the same way in many places
