As I might have said before... I have no problem with alcohol, I do however have a problem with the abuse thereof that leads to medical problems paid by the state taxes, rehab paid by the same, incarnation paid by the same, death by driving alcoholic idiots, domestic... etc.

And yes, I do believe we should always let the people decide in the counties or immediate areas. If someone is visiting the county, bring it with ya if ya want it.

The way the proposal is, if the entire area of LR and larger census ran areas of the state vote pro... there are no recourses for the local towns/counties. Popular vote of the metros take the rights away from the locals.

Hogwash I say!

JMHO of course...

I live in Conway and its a somewhat heated topic around here. All the old politicians/Baptist types are dying off so the stance against it isn't as strong from a bible thumper standpoint but the surrounding wet counties pour tons of money into keeping us dry. It really does suck when I buy a beer at a restaurant here in town and I'm paying tax on my beer twice.
