Welcome to the real world.

 

Oh, and by the way, Sunday comes at the same time every week, so if you forgot to get your all important beer, it's your own fault.


Yes, all those things happen and I am very well aware of how the real world operates.  You make my point too, actually.  Boundary issues galore are in your list of real world occurrences, and although I realize it isn't going to change because I say it could, I still say it doesn't have to be that way.

 

And really if the law is based on religious beliefs it should be struck down.  I don't drink and don't buy alcohol, so not sure what other reason there would be not to buy on Sunday, but why should someone have to arrange his/her shopping schedule because someone else thinks there should be no beer sold on a particular day?  Boundaries again it seems to me....

if we were talking about a hundred years ago when shopping was a once a month mule cart thing, i could agree.  Every one goes somewhere almost every day.  Work, school, clubs, meetings. If you pass a Walmart or  liquor store 6 times a week, then get mad because you forgot to buy beer, it's your own fault on Sunday.

You can always go out to eat as restaurants are not restricted from serving alcohol on Sunday, unless you stay there until 2am.

''''Bars and other establishments with an on-premise license are required to stop serving alcohol at 2 a.m.'''
