You noticed that too?
Yep funny eh?
Perhaps the Brits here should start insisting that Americans do things differently. I think you should be able to buy alcohol in supermarkets. Why don't you take a vote on it. Then you can be like us. 
Um, you can buy alcohol in supermarkets, have been for years. As far as these tedious fucking gun debates, who cares. Although Susie I will say you mentioned in the last gun thread why you had never heard a valid or an actual reason for someone to have to have one, and I relayed to you a very personal story of when my home was entered by drunken men in the middle of the night thinking I was gone on a trip, when in fact only my ex had gone and I was home alone. I was sleeping on the couch, and had a loaded *of course handgun right on the endtable. That I do believe may have saved my life. Whatever it may or may not have done, you ignored it. Rhi also posted a personal story which you did not comment on either. So I did get the feeling that even when you are given what you asked for, you still will not listen.
I am a liberal, I despise the NRA, I think if you want a gun go get one, if you don't, don't. My god, this gets old.
My understanding, which was backed up earlier, is that you cannot buy Vodka or Gin or other spirits in supermarkets there. Or maybe you can in the states that I have not visited.
You can and have been able to purchase all liquor, beer, wine, spirits, etc. for almost a decade. The state discontinued overseeing what where called "agency" liquor stores and every single supermarket has a full liquor department. I have traveled throughout much of the states, it is that way everywhere I have been. I am not sure what states you are referring to.
Please read posts 473 and 474. Some of your fellow countrymen would appear to disagree with you.
Yes, it's an American thing, dissenting opinions and all that, however, this was just a comment based on fact. My state, and most I have traveled to, have for many years, sold liquor in the supermarkets, convenience stores and the like. I believe Luscious addressed that as well. Your original comment insinuated incorrectly that you could not purchase such items in the supermarkets. I was correcting that assumption. It is just perhaps where you have traveled to.
