Because the purpose of the US governmental structure allows for local laws to be far far more specific than federal and state ones.

Funny thing about that. The big (chain) liquor stores in my state actually lobbied against the idea of allowing them to be open on Sundays. Why? They didn't want to have employees on the clock for an extra day and therefore need to pay them more or hire more people; nor did they want to lose the surge in sales/traffic that happens every Saturday.

As long as you live in a wet county, you can still buy beer or wine after 12pm on Sundays, so it was never really much of a loss.

Colorado didn't allow Sunday sales until 2008(!). The abolition this law was opposed by convenience and grocery stores.

The reason is convenience and grocery stores are (were) only allowed to sell 3.2% beer and could sell it on Sunday. So they had more sales of 3.2 on Sunday than any other day.

The 3.2% law is now going away, slowly, with stores now allowed to sell it, but at a rate of a few new licenses a year. Coincidentally, this was opposed by liquor store owners who said it would cut into their business and cause them to close, as well as the small time (craft and micro) beer lobby who said this would wipe them out, somehow.

It may have started because of religious purposes, and while Colorado is in a unique place because of their 3.2 law, if it's still opposed in certain places it may only be because some industry in the state are being cunts about it.

Oh boy, Nevada is truly the place to go if you're a suicidal alcoholic. Booze is sold 24/7 and is sold in some form, at least beer or cocktails, at nearly every establishment that offers retail goods or food. You have to be REALLY trashed at the wrong place for people to even really mind you being publicly intoxicated.

My favorite was a liquor store that doubled as a guns and ammunition store.

In regards to everything, and that includes sex, self-improvement, political correctness and things like that.

Americans take a small thing, a small concept, a small disagreement, a small discord, a small mistake and turn it into a mountain.

American culture consists on the neuroticism for principle, the neuroticism as the scope through where you judge everything.

This is why you have white kids listening to a black raper singing a song in which he can repeat thirty times "nigger" in a minute but when the white kid slips the "n-word" publicly he suddenly deserves to be fucking shunned, disgraced and even beaten, and everybody agrees that he deserved to be beaten by that black kid who was unrelated but was near him and heard the "n-word", and was super-triggered due to the psychological conditioning through this global American neuroticism, which made him succumb to an over-emotional drive until he beat the living shit of that foolish kid whose actual hero is a black singer.

It's the over-reaction to everything, this is why the so called sexual liberation in the US is much more extreme than in Europe, they always take things to ridiculous extremes, they don't know where to stop, it's a culture where common sense is simply unexistant.

They are the UNRELAXED culture par excellence, opposed to more relaxed cultures like those of Southern Europe or South-East Asia where people just don't give a fuck about petty things and they live and let live.

This is where those extreme self-improvement regimes come from, you are never good enough and that small bad thing about you, that is gigantic, ginormous and makes you practically a subhuman. Drinking some beers after work? ALCOHOLIC! To rehab you go and never drink booze again for the rest of your life!

In the land where people always feel happy ("fake it till you make it" should replace their national motto) is where people is actually always more unhappy, stressed and feel like they are never good enough.

Orthodox and Catholics, the two most traditional forms of christianity still technically say to do this.

Still, its entirely irrelevant how often it is done currently, the point is that making a dumb law banning something simply because of a superstition is not excusable or logical simply because that law can be worked around if people plan for it.

Yea no, its not catholics who are temperance movement abstainers. If you ever want to know what Catholics believe, just google the catechism for all of the church doctrine. Catholics don't have radical fringe churches doing their own things. It's pretty standardized right out of Rome. Catholics around the world believe the same thing.

Methodists, Pentecostals, Baptists and Mormoms are the historically anti-alcohol activists (aka temperance). Dry County law restrictions and forced bar closures/curfews are kind of mixed bags of reasons as far as ordinances go. Communities may want to have streets quiet and safe at a certain hour for law enforcement reasons, which then relate to crime reasons. There is a direct correlation of drunk driving and these closing time and blocked sales ordinances.

If you are a responsible person, not an impulsive person, you will plan ahead and therefore be the kind of person that isn't a danger to society. Period. That's it. Not having alcohol in your own house on Sunday is some kind of poverty level lack of stocking up or the result of someone with an addiction so strong that it's always drained the moment it is purchased. No one wants that type in their car heading out to make purchases on the fly. I don't agree, of course, but statistics show that it is better for the greater good, such that the type of person who groans and complains has major issues as much as the law being stupid in the first place.

As a foodie, I am more intolerant of county owned liquor dispensaries where the lack of choices of wine and whatever import you might be looking to find can't and won't ever exist. That is lack of free market economy and very annoying for those who travel and are gourmands wanting their choices.

The South was reliably Democrat until the civil rights era. Northern Democrats supported civil rights and Southern Dems opposed it. So a lot of Southern Dems split off from the main party. They were referred to as Dixiecrats. They struggled as a party on their own until the Republicans courted them in the 60s to expand their voting block in the southern states. That's why Strom Thurmond was a Republican after 1964.

The Democrats, needing to make up the shortage, absorbed more left-leaning groups like socialists (who were actually a national party until the late 40s).
Now we have a schizophrenic mess of two parties with often contradictory internal platforms.

The Volstead act was pushed by fanatical support from mothers, religious groups, and other large voting blocks. Even after the cluster fuck that was Prohibition, the best way they could legally wrangle to get rid of it was to couch it in the language of 'small government', by saying they would leave it up to individual states and counties.

>"Promoted by the "dry" crusaders, the movement was led by pietistic Protestants and social Progressives in the Prohibition, Democratic, and Republican parties. It gained a national grass roots base through the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. After 1900 it was coordinated by the Anti-Saloon League. Opposition from the beer industry mobilized "wet" supporters from the Catholic and German Lutheran communities. They had funding to fight back but by 1917–18 the German community had been marginalized by the nation's war against Germany, and the brewing industry was shut down in state after state by the legislatures and finally nationwide under the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution in 1920. Enabling legislation, known as the Volstead Act, set down the rules for enforcing the federal ban and defined the types of alcoholic beverages that were prohibited. For example, religious use of wine was allowed. Private ownership and consumption of alcohol were not made illegal under federal law, but local laws were stricter in many areas, with some states banning possession outright."

TBF prior to Prohibition America was coming down from the Civil War and Westward Expansion and alcohol consumption was at an all time high. Which meant a lot of the health and social problems that went along with excessive alcohol abuse were also at all time highs. So it's understandable that there would be a movement against drinking, it's just that we Americans seem awfully fond of broad sweeping, all-or-nothing solutions so we wound up with the cluster fuck that was Prohibition.

Oh right, I forgot they think that. Thanks anon. Anyway my point is that while Jesus said nothing about alcohol, and his first miracle was literally turning water into wine for a wedding, the Bible says no statement like "alcohol is sinful". It *does* imply that drunkenness is sinful and should be avoided but you can drink and not become drunk. That is up to the individual who has FREE WILL to choose. Perhaps government shouldn't be involved in legislating morality...that's a stunning thought ain't it?
