Recently, a news has attracted widespread attention on the Internet: a resident in Luzhou, Sichuan Province, was fined 23,000 yuan by the fire department for storing 10 tons of 53-degree high-strength liquor at home. This incident quickly appeared on the hot search with the topic of "being fined for hoarding self-brewed liquor at home?", and netizens expressed their puzzlement and questioned whether the punishment was too severe. The truth of the matter is complex, and it is worth thinking rationally from multiple angles.

We can't deny that these 10 tons of high-concentration liquor do have certain safety risks. The alcohol concentration of 53 degrees is relatively high, and once the fire is difficult to control, it will cause serious losses to nearby residents. From the standpoint of the fire department to maintain public safety, it is reasonable to remind residents to pay attention to safety.
But at the same time, we cannot ignore the plight of this resident. Nowadays, the cost of living is high, and people often save money by fermenting and storing some food on their own, and he may have stored a large amount of liquor for a long time because of this realization. It is too absolute.
Second, the focus of our discussion should not be limited to this case, but more importantly, how to formulate scientific and reasonable laws and regulations. At present, our country does not have clear regulations on the amount and concentration of personal storage, leaving a lot of room for law enforcement to judge.
Blindly treating the situation as a "source of danger" may also ignore the real needs of some people. Formulating detailed regulations to clarify the maximum amount of individuals storing a certain category of dangerous goods, giving citizens a safe and reliable legal guidance, is also more conducive to avoiding similar disputes.
Moreover, the interest of netizens may also reflect the society's over-interpretation of such trivial matters. A fine of 23,000 yuan may be heavy for the general public, but it is not necessarily a small amount for the public safety administration. We might as well think from a broader perspective, what are the considerations for the fire department to formulate this regulation, and what difficulties and challenges are they facing? Put yourself in the shoes of a specific department or person, and at the same time, do not downplay the blame for a public accident as "over-interpretation".
In short, this incident deserves in-depth discussion by all parties. On the one hand, we cannot tolerate gaps in the management of production safety and public health, but at the same time, we should give people more room for redress and care. Only by balancing the interests of all parties and taking into account legal and human care can we find the best solution that is acceptable to all. What we need more is not a simple conclusion, but long-term rational thinking. It is believed that only through broad consensus can the questions be well answered.
