I was wrong, it’s not all of them, Massachusetts and Kentucky do not have ABC stores.

I’m from PA.

Stop whining.

Live it.

Love it.

They VOTED for it.

Actually, Pennsylvania did not vote for it.

The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board was established in conjunction with the 21st Amendment and the repeal of prohibition. In 1933, just four days before the sale of alcohol became legal in Pennsylvania, the Board was officially organized. Upon its creation, Governor Gifford Pinchot stated that the purpose of the Board was to "discourage the purchase of alcoholic beverages by making it as inconvenient and expensive as possible."
I've never understood "Blue Laws."

Many years ago when I lived in Virginia, you could buy a camera on Sunday but not the film for the camera. At this moment I just realized this is not one of those archaic laws that nobody cares about with a camera on every cell phone.

This is not a national ermergency. It is an over-hyped media hoax.

There were 65 cases in Pennsylvania as of yesterday. Six days from now there will be 130. Six days after that, 260. In less than five months everybody in the state will be dead. That's called exponential growth. It's why the smart people are panicking now, while there's still a chance.

This hurts all the waitresses & bartenders, who rely on tip income.

Yes, we here in PA and the State of Utah are the only ones with State run liquor systems.

New Hampshire has state liquor stores as well.

Governor Wolf is already in his 2nd term and may not run for re-election. Just a clarification for those not from Pee-Ay.
