When the news announced this in Ohio, commenters said the state patrol was going to have to organize the lines from Pennsylvania to the first liquor stores across the border in Ohio.

Thanks for the liquor tax money, Gov. Wolf.

One of the larger money nights for bartenders. (in a normal year, with everyone home from school)
I hope this a**hole crashes into the Juniata with his d***less pal.

For those who aren't from around here (and I only found this out yesterday), not everywhere in the nation has the tradition Pennsylvanians do, namely, the night before Thanksgiving is THE biggest bar/pick-up night of the year, bigger than New Year's Eve.

Our Priest calls it "Amateur Night" but then he's a former Navy Chaplain.

So anyway, I guess Wolfie's just trying to shut down the partying tomorrow night.

....”They voted for him, embrace the suck”.....

In light of the Presidential election fraud discoveries one could quite easily question if Wolf was actually voted ‘for’.

Obviously the dims..and their puppet masters..can’t go full Nazi...they have to start with what seems like a bunch of stupid “edicts”...and just about everybody dismisses them or works around them.
Or, my personal favorite..mock them.
I suspect what is actually going on is “they” are building the framework for never ending shut downs and lock downs.
It is for certain that the C19 Virus is not going to be the last virus on earth.
But now “they” know they can control the masses.
They can use all kind of excuses to enforce lock downs under guise of a lockdown.
And what i am saying sounds like it is not connected but..but is about controlling the masses.. i think pRestident Harrris (Green New Deal) is going to MAKE (of course they will make it seem likes it is for our own good) people buy electric cars.
The ultimate goal is to contain people (control) and restrict their travel....They don’t need a wall like Germany had.
Oh, and part of the control will be to ban non-compliers from the internet...they will shut of your cell phone..and as a last resort put a hold on your credit cards.
Good luck.
