I say no. We've lived our whole lives in Minnesota with liquor stores being closed on Sundays. Give those workers a day off and give the party animals a day to sober up. Besides, any true party animal knows to buy enough for Sunday on Saturday night and if you are really that desperate, go to a bar or go to Hudson and stock up Sunday morning. I say keep it closed on Sunday. But be sure to stockpile on Saturday!

Let the free markets decide. If Minnesotans are against it, they won't go buy it, and liquor stores will stay closed and the problem is solved without needing government opinions. On a personal note, I rarely drink and use the bulk of our alcohol purchases in cooking. I do a lot of cooking on Sundays and am always annoyed when I can't buy rum on Sundays for rum cake or a cheesecake.

I'd have to say YES. I can't understand how this should even be an argument? Get rid of ridiculous laws such as this that were made 100 years ago by some religious lawmaker who didn't understand the separation of church and state. This is a personal choice and I don't appreciate the government's presence in my personal choices. This is not to mention the tax dollars lost from the "party animals" that drive to WI to buy beer on Sundays. Another reason this law needs to go.

Here's another example of how annoying and ridiculous this law is. I'm on my way to a "crazy party" (read: dinner at my brother or sister's place) and I forgot to grab a nice bottle of wine or beer or the night before. Sounds simple but it's situations like these where the government creeps into my life where it shouldn't be. It's not right, that's why this law should go.

Karl and Laura, It seems to me Sunday liquor laws aren't your problem, it's your inability to properly prepare that holds you back. Without preparing, you are preparing to fail.

Sorry Al, I disagree. I just don't obsess enough about liquor because I don't typically drink it. If we're out, it's not because I drank it. I hardly think not "preparing" to consume alcohol is preparing to fail. It's laughable. I'm a failure because I don't plan to drink.

They sell everything else on Sunday- so whats the diff. Keeps people working too.

I agree, let the stores and free market decide. As for the comment from Al Tate "give those workers a day off", our unemployment is at a high right now. If liquor stores were open on Sunday, stores would hire more part time workers. If they hire more workers our tax dollars would spend less on food stamps and welfare.

Free market - yes. Government intrusion - no.
