We're drunk the other 6 days...

Conneticut, Indiana and Georgia.

Those are the final 3 states in the United States of America that uphold what are called "blue" laws which prohibit the distribution of alcohol on Sundays. These laws date back into the first days of this young nation when religious freedom was the staple our society was to be built upon.

So fast forward a little over 300 years to 2007. There are still deep-rooted traditions in religion that cause these laws to exist. What is the harm of selling beer or liquor on Sundays? A good portion of our society is drunk every other day of the week so what's the harm in selling to them on Sunday? It could mean more revenue, especially with Sundays being a huge attraction in the sporting world. Look at the fastest growing sport in the world, NASCAR. What is a NASCAR race without a few beers and friends? What is an NFL game without some food and maybe a drink or two? Hey, I am a fan of the Falcons, Hawks, Braves and Thrashers. Sometimes those teams play on Sunday and we all know how crappy pretty much all those teams tend to be. A beer or a hard drink never hurts when you're a fan of Atlanta sports.

I say it's time we boot these laws and give selling alcohol on Sundays at least a shot. After all, I don't think anyone is going to hell for having a drink or two while they rest.
