28. Your sentence

"If something happen to any of those kids and the teacher had alcohol on their breath, there would be hell to pay."

This, in my understanding, means that if the exact same thing happened and the teacher had NOT had that one glass of wine, s/he would be considered somewhat less guilty. It's this distinction that I consider to be the effect of the prudish prohibitionist mindset. Just to clarify.
