So tired of hearing these boozers complain about the liquor laws. We need stronger laws preventing the sale of alcohol....Booze is the number one problem with most car accidents...we don't need more access to booze....we need less....keep the drunks out of my state....if you don't like the liquor laws....MOVE!

Is Erik Smoot planning on running for office at some point in time? I've seen that guy on T.V. the last two weeks almost everyday.
I'm not sure what it is about that guy I don't like. He comes off as the power hungry little kid that was bullied in school. Maybe it's the voice or that wanna be a cop look he has going on.
Just wish that he would go back to his desk and let the real cops do their job.

I've experienced him going overboard with things I've been involved with. 

He's not the best representative someone could have but he represents ABLE as ABLE should be represented.  Over reaching and too much power.

He was a cop.

I knew it. I thought that I had seen him before in uniform on the news.

If we really were as puritanical as we pretend to be, then we should treat 3.2 beer like we treat real beer. It's just slightly harder to get drunk on 3.2 beer, so it should be available in 4x as many places for twice as many hours per week.

That makes sense.

Is 3.2 beer still classified as a non-intoxicating beverage?

I really hate to, but I can prove that wrong.

Not only is it intoxicating if you do it right, but it's also a powerful laxative.

I just remember seeing the license to sell 3.2 beer at a place I used to frequent.  It was a permit/license to sell non-intoxicating beverages.  Of course the joke was to ask how many non-intoxicating beverages it took to get drunk.

Apparently Okies arent the only ones drinking watered-down beer:

Our not to exceed 3.2 beer is intentionally "watered down" (probably actually brewed to 3.2) but it is marked that way (absence of OK+) and we know it.

The gripe in the lawsuit is that the beer is not what it it marked.

The lawsuit seems bogus to me, considering federal law allows for some deviation.
