View Full Version : 4 LOKO Ban

Sooo....
who else is raiding their local gas stations/liquor stores tomorrow and stockpiling (so they can sell them for profit when they can no loger be found) :rofl:
Ive had maybe three 4 lokos in total ever, and I still think its stupid for the government of the so-called-land-of-the-free to ban them, just because some college kids were dumb while consuming it. Smacks of prohibition to me.

IMO I think it's a dumb law If they ban it then people will just move on to the next thing..........

hahah i saw about 40 posts on FB about this... and there not banned there changing whats in it and maybe new flavors(new loko already in some stores btw) but it will still be here. As far as date rape drug? so does that make a redbull and vodka a date rape too? all stick with shots, no offense but the only people i see drinking or posting about this are underage kids whos goal is to get fucked up and rape underage (drunk) girls not GHB or that shit hahah never tried it so makes no diff what happens with them lol all about EFFIN, Belvedere and Goose :) straight shots no chasers you pussies :p
I don't get it. Haven't women been drugging themselves with alcohol for centuries?

Dont get me wrong.
My favorite drink is Pilsner Urquell, straight from the motherfuckin barrel before it is even processed/pasteurized for bottling. A virgin and pure beverage that makes Odin weep with joy. Too bad you have to travel to Plzen (Czech Republic) to try it.
I never drink bud, miller, natty, pabst, or any other watered down horsepiss bs.
BUT, my problem is with the government banning shit. Put warning labels, get tougher on DUIs, checkfor legal age, PROMOTE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES SO THE U.S.A STOPS BEING THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE DEVELOPED WORLD DUE TO OUR IGNORANCE AND PISS POOR TASTE IN DRINKS! But dont ban shit like this is 39' Germany and we have a committee to uphold morals and decency.....
Kids did not die from 4 loko. They died because they consumed SEVERAL, in addition to other alcoholic beers.

i understand that they died/were hospitalized because they drank several, but isnt whats making them drink three or four all the caffeine and sugar in the first one ? checking for legal age ? please, im sure every place that sells them does it the problems is that every fucking person knows a 21 year old that will get them these drinks so there is absolutely no problem in obtaining them even if they get stricter on checking ids. and i dont think that theres a lack of understanding of alcohol in the us compared to the rest of the world, but the culture of drinking is much different here than in the rest of the world but thats a topic for another time.

They died/were hospitalized because they didnt read the letters on the can that say 23.5 Oz, 12% alcohol. Just like cigarettes, a more extreme warning label would work fine! And it was only a COUPLE OF KIDS! MORE THAN THAN 20 TIMES THIS NUMBER OF PEOPLE DIE EACH YEAR BECAUSE OF FUCKING PEANUT ALLERGIES, so lets ban all peanuts/allergy producing products to keep people safe while we are at it.
And yes. The caffeine in the first one makes you not feel the effects until later, at which point you might have already consumed more. So when it hits you, you might already by drunk.
But my point is, this is personal responsibility. I can legally buy some cheap ass vodka and 5 hour energy drinks and mix them and have a combination 10times more dangerous than a 4 loko....so is the government gonna ban them too???
I think Sarah Palin is the scarlet whore of Revelations. I voted for Obama. I still can't understand why the fuck Americans - some of the most privileged, spoiled, and pampered persons in the entire world -are so fixated with owning assault rifles and "defending der freedoms from evil commies/the king of england/zombies!".(eventhough I like guns)
But I still oppose banning these products just because someone, somewhere, abused it and was harmed as a result.

i agree dont be stupid about it, and yea that was my redline and vodka comment, you can do much worse but kids are dumb these days and have no control or common sense, and sense i dont drink 4 lokos i could really care less.

placing a more "menacing" label on 4lokos wouldnt do anything. its popular, available and most importantly, cheap as hell. i dont think that your comparison with cigarettes is applicable, cigarettes dont impair your ability to do anything plus it isnt like everyone at a party is smoking and peer pressuring you to have a stog like at a college party (where this is happening for the most part) compared to alcohol. comparing peanut allergy deaths to alcohol related deaths is not comparable either; peanuts are a natural and in large part, a safe to consume substance. by chance there are people that have severe allergies to them and subsequently die as a result of mistaken consumption. you wouldnt ban peanuts because BILLIONS more people are not allergic to them and there are no negative consequences of consuming them.
And yes. The caffeine in the first one makes you not feel the effects until later, at which point you might have already consumed more. So when it hits you, you might already by drunk.
But my point is, this is personal responsibility. I can legally buy some cheap ass vodka and 5 hour energy drinks and mix them and have a combination 10times more dangerous than a 4 loko....so is the government gonna ban them too???
4lokos could be banned because they are harming and being consumed by underaged drinkers by and large which is both illegal and dangerous not only to the drinker but for others around them. obviously you can purchase alcohol legally (im assuming) and you are free to buy 5 hour energies and popov if you really want to but the group that is most effected by these drinks are 18 and 19 year olds who havent had as much experience with alcohol as you have (again assuming). if hypothetically you did mix popov and 5 hour energy and made some crazy drink you would know what youre getting yourself into and it would probably taste terrible. the whole point of 4lokos is that it tastes GOOD and you wont taste the alcohol. you could tell whoever is drinking them, this drink is bad for you and will make you sick, etc, but when an underaged and new drinker has that fruity non alcoholic taste hit their lips and they dont feel the effects of the alcohol immediately, ill bet they would go for another one and when they do feel it theyre not gonna remember much the next day.
i agree with you that whoever is drinking this has the personal responsibility to keep under control but what im reading is that they lose that when all the sugars/caffeine/etc hits them and they think theyre okay and im sure thats not hard to imagine with...600+ calories, the equivalent of two cups of coffee worth of caffeine and god knows how much sugar in them.
I think Sarah Palin is the scarlet whore of Revelations. I voted for Obama. I still can't understand why the fuck Americans - some of the most privileged, spoiled, and pampered persons in the entire world -are so fixated with owning assault rifles and "defending der freedoms from evil commies/the king of england/zombies!".(eventhough I like guns)

Energy drinks taste like ass in general..Just saying...
Oh and remember when I was younger traveling in Europe when Red Bull first came out. Damn Red Bull and vodka messed me up proper. The thing is you never really feel the alcohol when you drink it mixed with energy drinks. Never again after that....
4lokos is the cheapest way to get drunk and the only good flavor is lemonade. i usually just drink one can to get my night started and a beautiful (hennessey + grand marnier) once in the club, and another random drink to keep my buzz going.
for the people that have consumed, everytime my friends and i pound a can within 10mins, does your chest hurt? that's another reason why i dont drink it fast anymore.

The problem with this product is the huge amounts of caffeine in it. You don't realize how drunk you are getting because the caffeine masks the effect. So it greatly increases your chance of getting alcohol poisoning because you drink more to get the same buzz as before. Obviously, no one can prevent people from making red bull and vodka, but that doesn't mean that there should be a product on the market with more caffeine than a 6-pack of soda mixed with more alcohol than a bottle of wine. The fact that all of that is packed into a single can, suggests that it is a single serving, leading people to drink more than 1 and greatly endangering their health. One can over 30 minutes is enough for a 100-lb woman to risk alcohol poisoning.

On top of that, if you don't have the common sense to stay hydrated when drinking alcohol or energy drinks, then I'd say the win goes to Darwin on this one. The news blows everything out of proportion, more people die in car wrecks everyday.:zzz:

I think 4 locos are good, with one I'm good with just a little tipsy. But if they do or already ban 4 locos I think that's really dumb. Some kids can't really handle alcohol, just like one of my buddies, he gets super crazy and thinks everyone is looking at him when he drinks a 4 loco lol I'm serious.

I'd be willing to bet that it's no so much the booze, but the heavy caffine intake that does more 'harm' thangood.
I've got a very good friend of mine who didn't buy into the 'hype' of 4 loko. Mind you he's a bigger guy who can typically handle 6-8 mad elfs on a 'drinking night' and not go wild...just to sleep haha.
Anywho he had 4 the other day/night, and literally lost his mind. Painted his die cast cars and stuff, organized his entire garage...it was very very odd. Granted his general caffine intake is low, but the end result (of a good drinker) was just unpredictable.
Don't get me wrong, the 6 packs worth of booze per can is wild...heck even my favorite belgians have a hard time reaching that level...but to outright ban it is a bit reactionary to say the least.

You make some good points and I appreciate your ability to discuss in a reasonable way...specially in Zilvia lol.
But I don't know how you can say that "by and large" they are being consumed by underage drinkers since as far as I know no study or survey has been done to show this.
And this is still the U.S.A, meaning its not *that* easy for underage kids to get drinks.
Just because some underage kids drink 4loko, it means that adult U.S citizens who want to drink them should be prohibited from doing so? Thats my main problem with the ban. You could use the argument that "it is doing more harm than good" and ban a number of alcoholic beverages, or prevent bartenders from fixing certain cocktails which are sure to fuck you up real good, or ban those 40oz malt liquors, or outright ban cigarettes, etc.
Like someone else mentioned, the whole banning campaign is absolutely reactionary. Its the same mentality that ushered in Prohibition in the first place.

4loko is a stupid ban. ever heard of cisco? pound one of those and try to function... overly exaggerated hype about the caffeine being in 4loko, honestly a can doesn't get you fucking wasted unless your a bitch. you gotta drink 2 within a short amount of time for anything to really happen, even then you do realize you finished 47 ounces of alcoholic beverage and should be drunk/not driving or doing what-have-you anyway... lame douchebag highschoolers
oh man 4loco. the cause of so many of my worst hangovers. that shit is dangerous lol. i dunno how some of you guys can say you can drink 3-4 by yourself. im no noobie to drinking but if i finish 2 in under 2-3 hours, im simply just gone.
seriously, if i drink two of these under an hour, i am usually drunk for atleast 3hours. i rather spend $3 to get me buzzed than spend $40 to get me at the same level. earlier this year, my friends and i went to a another friend's birthday event at a club in frisko. between 5 people, we had 3 4lokos and a bottle of hennessey priviledge and that night, was a night i still remember this day. too much fun that night, and the girls were gone.

i agree, i remember my freshmen year, i was pounding a bottle of cisco before the school dance (yea, when they were fun back then, lol). i was lucky that my school was in walking distance, so my friends and i would be drinking on our way there. a couple of my friends that drink this are "light weight," so they usually share a can and be fucked up. if i plan on going out this weekend, i'll probably grab a can to get my night started. :D

That is because of the caffeine. If it was the same drink without the caffeine, you would feel way more buzzed. The caffeine prevents you from feeling the effects of the alcohol, even though the alcohol is in your bloodstream. So people drink even more alcohol to get the same level of buzz, and as a consequence, have a much higher risk of getting alcohol poisoning.
this drink is a 24oz can and is 12% alcohol. That means that one can has as much alcohol as 5 beers.

Four Lokos and Joose fuck you up in ways other alcoholic beverages dont. but does that merit a ban, because getting drunk on beer is certainly different than getting drunk on spirits. a glass of wine has the same amount of alcohol as four loko, however, if i drink the same amount of liquid from each liqour on a separate occasion, i will experience a much different effect. if i was to mix other alcohol with either Four Loko or wine, it would be just DUMB, plain and simple. a lot of us learned, liqour before beer, have no fear. beer before liqour, never been sicker. i second what S14DB said, you should not mix stimulants with depressants, however, people snort blow and drink alcohol to bring them down and chill. i could go on and on, in the end, i think the world is better off without Four Loko, seeing as most people dont know how to handle their liqour.

High-Risk Drinking in College: Consequences of College Student Alcohol Abuse Consumption (http://www.collegedrinkingprevention.gov/niaaacollegematerials/panel01/highrisk_04.aspx)
It will continue in the absence of them too
That article is horrible. The (legal) 18 year old college kid drinkers over here don't vandalise campuses, kill themselves or kill others any more than any other binge drinker? Smells like propaganda.
Students who engage in risky drinking may experience blackouts (i.e., memory loss during periods of heavy drinking); fatal and nonfatal injuries, including falls, drownings, and automobile crashes; illnesses; missed classes; unprotected sex that could lead to a sexually transmitted disease or an unwanted pregnancy; falling grades and academic failure; an arrest record; accidental death; and death by suicide. In addition, college students who drink to excess may miss opportunities to participate in the social, athletic, and cultural activities that are part of college life.
Obviously 21 year olds won't experience blackouts, drunken injuries or diminished work performance. They're 21 after all. Damn those pesky students having fun with their lives!

All of these kids are trying to act like Four Loko does something different than normal alcohol... But it's really the same except you're not tired. You drink too much, you black out, you wake up naked in someone's bed... Pretty sure the same thing happens with any other drink in excess..

I chose that article because its on a government website, and pretty much every effect of caffeinating an alcoholic beverage can be acheived by an alcoholic beverage alone. In other words, the caffeine isn't doing very much. Except providing a scapegoat for irresponsible parents.
In every article people are blaming the makers of four loko for making underage kids doing stupid things. The problem is little kids getting their hands on alcohol, today its four loko, after they change it they'll go back to other malt liquors, or whatever the stupid parent of the day is willing to supply.

What is so hard to understand here? It is not the amount of alcohol that is the issue. A bottle of vodka has more alcohol than four loko. The issue is all the caffeine in it. All that caffeine keeps you from feeling drunk, so you drink even more. Why do people call it 'blackout in a can'? Because they drink a can, and then continue to drink, not feeling really drunk, and then the caffeine wears off and all of a sudden they feel the full effects of all the alcohol. People end up drinking much more than usual because they don't feel as drunk. That is why people keep getting alcohol poisoning.
I don't understand how it's possible to even ban a specific brand of product.
The brand isn't being banned, the FDA says companies can't add caffeine to alcoholic drinks. So the manufacturer is taking the caffeine out.

It can be different, but not dangerous. A few years ago before people had caffeine in their drinks, teens were binge drinking, with intent to get drunk. Whether you feel it or not isn't going to stop people in that mode of drinking.

I still do not believe that it's all based upon the alcohol content...the amount of caffeine is astounding and most certainly plays a big role in the 'after effect' of the drink.
I may not be the wrolds best drinker, but I do drink quite a bit of big boozy craft beers...and sometimes many at once...to date I will even admit that a 4loko effects me much differently than anything else.
FWIW: We mixed some Luksosowa vodka with the lemon lime last night for a mixed drink...it's some wild stuff, as you really can't taste the vodka. We promptly named the drink Ecto Cooler.

I don't disagree with you on that, but I know I'm buzzed after one. I think the only thing keeping people from realizing their level of intoxication is a lack of experience. The same lack of experience a lot of us had when we got drunk before, and the same lack of experience that will threaten the lives of the next generation of underage drinkers.

To be honest my disdain for the article was more directed towards the attitude that anyone under the age of 21 cannot make responsible decisions regarding alcohol. At 18 it was totally normal for me to have a quiet drink after work with friends, or a pint with our game of pool at lunch. We weren't getting wasted on vodka at every available opportunity? We'd outgrown it! I felt like I was treated like an irresponsible child at 20 in America. I know it's the law, and thats fine, but it was when common sense was put on the sideline that I got annoyed.

Why... Cuz I'm not 21
Yes, that is correct. Because you are not of legal age to consume alcoholic beverages in the state you reside in.
You are publicly admitting to breaking the law. That's not very smart, and not exactly a behavior we like here on Zilvia.net.
I advise you, remove yourself from the discussion at this point.

Lmao Why... Cuz I'm not 21
It is against the Law for anyone under the age of 21 to consume any type of alcoholic beverage.
Zilvia.net does not condone nor wishes to hear about your illegal stories of whatever it is you do on your own time.

I would not consider those "real" beers either. lol
Four Loko is a malt liquor.
Thats like comparing your MGD to cider.
Different sports, they just both happen to use a ball ;)
Not that the stuff taste good or anything.
But it does what malt liquor is supposed to.
Get you hammered, give you a hangover, be under $3.00, and mainly be for the homeless and under 21 crowd, as well as work for "theme" parties.
Four Loko is a nation wide meme that is happening.
Thats the real reason everyone is on board.
To actually try and discuss this seriously is self insulting to those doing it, lol.
So just shut it, grab a LOKO if that sketchy market down the street still has em, and join in on a fun and passing moment in history.
i just want to know how much % 4loko has gone up since this incident. a lot of people have not tried it and actually did.
hmm...free advertisement!

It will probably take several months for the new reformulated without caffeine to hit store shelves. The are not recalling it, just reformulating it. It will take some time to make sure the new blend is palatable. Caffeine has a bitter bite to it. They will have to replicate that or decide it was an unneeded flavor. Then it will take a few months for the current stock to sell off and the new formulations to make its way through the distribution network.
I don't know the price of Four Loko. If it is on sale, that would lead me to believe they had the reformulation ready and have already gone into production and are trying to clear out the old stocks. There is also the possibility they are just trying to have a pseudo sale to profit from the press.
A lot Malt Beverages come in two alcohol levels, a sub-14% and a sub-7%. Levels allowed in different states varies. 14% and 7% are the most common regulations so they make two versions with those levels.

from what ive seen. Joose is either 9% or 11%.
4 Loko in any flavor is 12%.
Lemon Lime is by far the best tasting imo tho. Doesnt seem to get me as drunk tho :(

Check the can, they took out the caffeine, taurine, guarana, and whatever the last "energy" ingredient is, or it may have just been the color (red 42 or something).
Its pretty missleading however, it look just like the "banned" stuff...but its not...
It tastes different too, like you can taste the energy stuff not there..Which i think added to the flavor...its even more nasty now.. :(

All the nasty taste but no more "extra" or "different" feeling of the banned four loko.

If someone is willing to drink any toxic waste just to get drunk as much and as cheaply as possible, they may as well start pouring the alcohol in their rectum instead. That way they can pass out from two or three shots, and probably die from four.

Way to read the thread...
They banned the mixing of alcohol and "energy" additives such as Gurana and caffeine. They reformulated it without the energy stuff.
they banned it alltogether! thought it was just 4 loko?

Some people still have no idea what is going on. No drinks were banned. Companies just can't mix caffeine with alcohol. So all of the alcoholic energy drinks have had the caffeine and related ingredients removed.

it still has the same amount of alcohol, so you should get just as drunk. The only difference is that the alcohol should hit you sooner and more gradually.

yeah, alcoholic energy drinks are banned.
Four Loko is banned.
So they reformulated, and came out with a different drink under the same name.
But the original FOUR LOKO is banned.
They dont make it anymore.

We just got some energy drinks on tap at work(B-Dubs). It distributed by Coke, I don't even know what its called. Everyone was totally jacked by like 11am, and the cost for flu shots is cut in half. I will have to deal with getting my caffeine and liquor after work I guess.
