Can the citizens arrest the troopers for deprivation of rights under color of law?
Wouldn’t that be an interesting turn of events?

This seems like a federal matter — interstate commerce, isn’t it?

Pennsylvania has had a state government monopoly on retail liquor sales since the day Prohibition ended. And Federal laws on bootlegging back them up unfortunately.

I wish I were more ambitious. There’s a LOT of black market dollars to be made now that we’ve essentially been FORCED into an Underground Economy.

I’m surprised it hasn’t happened yet, quite frankly.

A state has no standing on this. According to the US Constitution the Federal government shall regulate trade between the states.

The voter fraud in Philly has been legendary for a long time. The GOP did nothing about it. So you end up with Benito.
