How to use "Proscribed" in context?
Many governments have proscribed certain things for fear of negative public reaction. The list of proscribed items can vary greatly from country to country, but often includes items like drugs, weapons, and pornography. There are a number of reasons why governments might want to proscribe an item. Some items might be dangerous and threaten public safety, others might be illegal and contribute to criminal activity, and still others might be seen as morally or socially questionable. Whatever the reason, proscribing an item can have a number of implications for those who want to buy, possess, or use it.
