Why the hell should shops close ridiculously early on Sundays? This is supposed to be a secular state, what the FUCK? If they're gonna go and be all religious, maybe they should also stop discriminating against the Jews and forbid any shops to open on a Saturday, make everyone stay silent at certain hours for the Muslims, and make everyone wear Mr HAI masks for HAISM.

This is such bullshit.

The worst part of it are Sunday liquor laws. Thankfully the state I currently live in (Ohio) no longer prohibits the sale of alcoholic beverages on Sunday and the state where I'm moving (Kentucky) has made it an issue to be decided by each municipality. A great percentage of the state's liquor stores are located directly across the river because Ohio residents often cross state lines for cheaper booze and tobacco - these municipalities almost entirely voted "yes" on Sunday liquor sales.

It's simply because the government is nothing but a two-faced phony, pandering to the God-fearing tax-payer just as well as the atheist. If a few wealthy taxpayers worshiped fish even on a temporary basis, you could be sure to see fish statues in the park, fish on your paper currency, and a holiday set aside specifically for the Fish People... maybe Fish Day... or something similar. The government would play right along too, solemnly recognizing the rights and faith of the Fish People, awarding paid holidays with clever aquatic names, opening up a sufficient number of subsidized and low-cost fish petting farms, the list goes on and on really... it's all for the cash - nothing more.

You can't buy alcohol before 10am on a Sunday, and to be honest if you can't wait til then then you're just a dirty alcy.

Place where I work in Ohio can sell beer at anytime on Sunday but no wine or spirits until 1 PM. 12:30 if I know you, though.

Ill agree. But when you've been up all night and run out at 8am? Been there.

at least your liquor stores open on sunday. although nothing strikes me as strange as georgia, where even in a restaurant you can't buy booze...
