tried to get a beer when I was in Arkansas the other day but was told that they couldn't sell it to me because it was Sunday. . . Arkansas state law.
I thought these red-state right-winger types were against so called "BIIIIG GOVERNMENT" telling people how to live their lives.
I guess this only applies to things like safety laws that save peoples lives, and regulations that prevent the destruction of the economy, and other so-called "bleeding-heart" do-gooder stuff.
Whether i have a beer on my day off is no ones business but my own, no matter what day it is. (besides, wasn't the original Sabbath on a Saturday anyway?). Its not so much that I was deprived of a beer, but its the hypocrisy that really gets me.
There are also some Constitutional questions that come into play here as well -pertaining to the fact that religious laws cannot be mandated. Guardians of the Constitution, eh? Even more hypocrisy.
