Re: the surly bill has been signed
How about liquor sales on Sunday? Too much to ask for, apparently.

Is it really that inconvenient for you? My friends step-dad owns a liquor store and said a majority of the locally owned/operated liquor stores are for keeping it the way it is. |

Who cares what the majority thinks? They can close every day of the week if they want to. I want the option of driving to the one that decides to stay open on the day that I'm off from work and have time to go shopping for the week. Why don't they all take Monday off?

There is a bill going through the process. But surprizingly its the liquor stores that oppose it. (wackos.)

Most liquor stores are owned by families who might want 1 day a week off. |

Exactly. What a bunch of wackos for wanting a day off.

I think it should actually be up to the store owners then, not politicians. If they want to be open Sunday, let them, if they don't want to be open on Sundays, let them do that also! but let it be their choice. That is all I would like to see happen.

Not for all of us. 
I'm not saying liquor stores not being open on Sundays is some colossal inconvenience, but it would be nice to go get some booze when something comes up short notice the day after you drank your reserves. 
For now I'll just go to the bar to get my Sunday drink on.

Agreed.

Either that or I take a couple T-bones over to Dad's place in WI and have him grill. The argument is retarded...making it not illegal to be open on a Sunday does not require every liquor store in the state to be open that day.
They can take any day off that they want--it's their business. What they're really saying is that if some other store was open on Sunday then they wouldn't dare risk their customers getting in the habit of going somewhere else. That logic in the back of their minds undermines their entire argument...there is a demand for it. |
