Elevz:
What exactly is the point? You're saying it's ridiculous you can't go out to buy stuff at any given time in Minnesota? Well, let me reverse the question... Why should these people keep their stores opened at 4:30 on a Sunday morning because someone -might- be interested in buying a bottle of liquor? Why do these Californian liquor stores even do that? Has life really become an endless cycle of consuming now that we'll even complain about stores being CLOSED some of the time?

I'm not a Christian, but I agree with them on this. Why can't we just have one day where we chill the fuck out, and not be worried about consuming and being busy all the time. Why shouldn't we?

And let's not forget: nobody's telling you that you can't drink liquor on Sundays. Nobody's forcing their morals on you. Why don't you buy a bottle earlier on in the week, so you can drink on Sunday?

Low Key:
It's not even about the reglious aspect here in Minnesota. It's more so because Minnesota is 2nd behind Wisconsin in terms of total alcohol sales. People drink too much around here.

Besides, from the sound of it, California along with other states have a license to sell food as well as liquor in their stores. You might be able to find a liquor store in northern Minnesota like that, but pretty much all liquor stores in the Twin Cities is liquor only. The tax on alcohol is quite a bit here for a state that is pretty close to both Milwaukee (Miller) and St. Louis (Bud), and food licenses cost a lot and come with higher restrictions.

where the fuck you from. My aunts live in either Redlands, Riverside, Rialto or Colton. And I get home quiet a bit. Difference, In California, alcohol is sold by private agencies... so if a liquor store wants to be open 24/7, they can. The state doesn't regulate that, at least not beer. Hard liquor, maybe.

In Minnesota... the liquor stores are related to the state, and it's fucked up. The state should either open up on Sundays... or let private businesses get in the business too.

It's not about having a day to chill... it's about the fact that the day they chose is Sunday. That's religious based... and that's wrong the government is forcing this bullshit. If they want a day to chill... why not Wednesday?
