Dang it. For.
No alcohol for you, comrades. It is for the good of the State and for the happy masses toiling to build socialism.
Spontaneous demonstrations celebrating the wisdom of the State and its loving concern for the health and welfare of the proletariat will be expected of all.
Now raise a glass of water to toast our Great Leader!
When I lived in PA the state store employees were so slow they couldn’t catch a cold.
This kind of stuff is why I saw someone with a 100 bottles of liquor and 50 boxes of Spam in his cart at the grocery store.
Okay ..it was really not that much...but it was a lot
Ive already got Grandpas delivery truck out of storage. As soon as I can find his old Tommy gun Ill be ready to go.
So the effective date of the new Prohibition is St. Patrick’s Day?!? What kind of alternate universe are we living in?
We’re probably going to have more virus spread in the next 24 hours as huge mobs race to beat the liquor store deadline than if they just allowed them to be open and operate normally.
Tom Wolf is such a moron.
Probably didn't get to ride with Sally Field, I don't guess.
You’re right; anything to get those rats out of Harrisburg. Just as long as we don’t get another Tom Ridge.
Let’s all cause a financial catastrophe to defeat Trump! Great idea!
they better post armed guards at those closed stores because they will be burglarized.
They dont want people to have parties. They want everyone to stay home and do nothing until the all-clear siren.

I’ll just cross the state line not even 30 minutes away if i need some hooch.
You’re so old-fashioned. Why not a 20 mm. AR-14 with several thousand round clip magazines?
They should at least have home delivery. Otherwise a booze riot will ensue.
“Good Spirit Stores” never heard them called that.
Only ever heard them called States Stores.
Back when Tequila with the worm was popular, I had a friend who lived on the border of Texas and Mexico who would buy Tequila for $1.50 and sell it for $25.
I wish I could remember his name. I bet he is famous now.
And I’m quite sure the PA State House is fully stocked, bcause, heaven forbid our Dear Leaders suffer as us underlings should...
I hope there is political hell to pay for this, like the mayor in IL banning the sale of guns to ‘combat’ coronavirus...
Good job retards. Now you’re going to have people driving across state lines to get booze.
