The Death of Four Loko Has Begun
At least in Michigan. Yep. Banned! What suburban-minded Republican state with a majority of out-of-touch 50 and 60 year-olds is gonna step up next?

Four Loko, the drink that that combines about 11% of its alcoholic volume with a whole lot of caffeine and other weird chemicals, has been banned in the state of Michigan.
This comes after a number of college students across the country were hospitalized from going a bit too insane with the drink.
Ramapo College in New Jersey has recently banned all drinks that combine caffeine and alcohol, and the attorney general of Washington State launched an investigation into Four Loko after a number of students at Central Washington University who chose it to imbibe with it had blackouts.
And of course, there was the death of Sparks in 2008.
Stores in Michigan that carry Four Loko have been given 30 days to remove it from their shelves. Better stock up while you can, bros.
