We're laughing at General Hood. This ain't his first rodeo or the first time he fell off his horse. If not for his arrogance, it wouldn't be nearly so enjoyable watching the arena clowns rush out to pick him up.

He's just trying to make political points with low-education, overly religious Mississippians because he knows that if he goes after the citizens themselves, (especially those Baptists) for purchasing that evil whiskey, that wouldn't be very popular when it comes time to vote. Poor Jim "Bobo" Hood.....seems like he doesn't really know where he belongs. Time to go home and sell insurance Jim.

While our laws aren't perfect (whose are?), they do work to protect locally owned businesses in our state. When you get rid of mom and pop stores, all you are left with is what the big box stores offer-no selection and no customer service. Just look at Kroger and Wal-mart-they are deleting national brands in favor of their own since they have little competition. The same would happen in the liquor\wine situation. Your fine wine and spirits choices would dis-appear overnight. And, by the way, the ABC does not limit your selection now. More often than not, the wineries and distilleries themselves determine where to send their products.

Does anyone know what went on in the case - did Hood not have any actual evidence that these sellers had at least one bottle of wine sitting on a shelf someplace?

If you're for small government, then best believe you start pressing your legislator to call for eliminating ABC and let the free market dictate itself. <br /><br />It will be better for the Mississippi consumer biggly. <br /><br />ABC marks up our liquor and then the liquor stores sell it to us again with 7% sales tax. <br /><br />There are a lot of wines and liquors that do not cross our borders because of ABC. <br /><br />Now mom and pop liquor stores benefit because of our archaic liquor laws, but the state needs to be about the consumer because we drive the economy.
