Those against prohibition believed it hurt their culture and would take away rights. 

Prohibition was opposed by many new immigrant groups where drinking was a part of their culture and their religion (especially Catholics). It was targeted at lower classes as well taking away the one leisure activity many of them could afford--going to the bar. Owners of alcohol industries argued it would hurt the economy taking away the tax on alcohol and the government didn't have the right to take away the drink.
