The Georgia Legislature recently ended its annual session. First, make sure your wallet is OK.
Next, lets have a bit of sympathy for the alcohol users of the state. Once again, the lesterslature decided not to allow Retail sale of alcohol on Sunday.
Alcohol is a deadly, addictive drug. It kills people. It breaks up families. It makes people drive horribly.

 But it is legal.

Alcohol users don’t have to buy their stuff from a criminal. Alcohol users will not have their property confiscated if hooch is found in their possession. Alcohol users don’t worry about losing their jobs because of drug testing.

 But it is legal.

Alcohol users are druggies with special privileges. And now they are whining because they cannot go to the Likkasto on Sunday.
Aww, poor baby. Their poison is legal the rest of the time. Let them buy it on Saturday.

Maybe I need to disclose a few things here. I was raised in Dry DeKalb County, in a Southern Baptist household with very little drinking. When I was twenty I developed a taste for beer. Over the next fourteen years I drank my share, and a couple of other people’s share as well. On December 31, 1988, I drank my last beer. Sometimes I think it is the only thing I have gotten right.
There are all sorts of arguments for allowing Sunday Sales of alcohol. Some of them make sense.
As long as the war on drugs is going on, and alcohol is given an exemption, it is tough for this reporter to feel sympathy for legal druggies. They should be happy that their poison is legal, hide the car keys, and quit whining about buying it on Sunday.
