to seperate the church and the state, what? A life is surely more important than a drink of alchol anytime, and surely the Lord has no doing in this habit of alchol. If you cant buy on saturday to keep you over till monday its time to lay the bottle down its already done you harm. Look at cigs they have taxed them out of this world they say it causes cancer,people still smoke. Sunday has always ben the Lords day whether or not you go to church. Remember when there was no stores open on Sunday, now you cant find one closed. When all the crimes was down and people were a close net family and drugs were a thing that never was. Thats when people honored the Lord and his day. Alchol forms a large factor in crimes as drugs does and i pray surely if you have children growing up you really surely think of what more you are putting out there to them. I would think 6days a week sell is even to much obviously that cant be stopped but we can stop the sunday sell. Death is certain,thanks Linda
I think that a decision that is of this nature should not be left up to our delegates to decide. shouldn't this be some thing that should be put on a state ballot and let the people of this state decide whether or not to allow the retail sale of hard liquor on Sundays? Wine sales are retricted to lower alcohol content on Sundays right now. It is being done to generate more revenue for the state i'm sure of that. And there will be more than just of a few people that this will effect.If you want to drink liquor on Sunday you can do that already at a club by the drink. If you want to drink liquor buy it the night before and see if you can keep it until after 1:00 the next day. If not you probably don't need it anyway.
Linda, you cant punish everyone for the actions of a few, this is a step in the right direction, we are starting to seperate church and state.
This is such a joke!!Start taxing the beer &liquor.So many familys has lost loves ones due to DUI/ok you have the smokers broke,so raise the price of all booze!!maybe we can save lives.
