Here in Virginia, liquor stores are an essential business. If not, Southwest Virginia still has a bunch of illegal moonshiners.

My wife and I have gotten too used to our bedtime cocktails:
Brandy. Preferably VSOP. as much as you want in a rocks glass
Triplesec. Again however much you want
Bitters. Not too much; just a few shakes
Maraschino Cherry juice. Not too much since the jar is small and you need enough for your second drink.
Maraschino Cherries. Stab 4 on one of those fancy bamboo toothpicks.
Stir and enjoy. Did I say to fill the glass with ice first.
Take three Benadryl with two of these cocktails and sleep like a baby.

Well you may need one at the rate the country is going. They are emptying out the jails. And in the mountains there has been past experiences of the not so honorable like Eric Rudolph hanging out for a while. But don't worry, there are Indians up that way too,Oldgator73 said:

Guns and liquor don?t mix and I ain?t givin up my liquor. Now if they close the liquor stores I may have to buy a gun.

You're not going to need a gun. Unless you need groceries or want to keep the ones you already have.

Won?t need a weapon for groceries. There are plenty where we live. And if someone needs groceries bad enough to have to steal them, I will gladly share.

That sounds good but I would posit cognac and creme de menth is not exactly avoiding sugars.

I'm not asking this to get into politics, in fact I'm very pro gun and own a large number of them, but I'm curious and don't understand, why would gun stores be considered essential right now? Is it because of our constitutional right to own them? I mean closing gun stores doesn't mean people can't own guns it just means there's a pause on buying more. Maybe they don't want to be accused of going anti constitution? Or is there something I'm totally missing?

It?s political. Has to do with the NRA. We have no need for a gun and nobody I know needs the gun stores to be open during this crisis. I feel the same way about liquor stores. I like a cocktail or two or a few glasses of wine a night but if liquor stores closed I would just do without.

Considered a "somewhat safe" activity. AND - gov can still collect taxes and help the economy a bit - same as liquor stores. They don't want to shut the country down completely. JMORVMommaTo6 said:

It's pretty obvious when a state like Utah owns and operates all the liquor stores,, are they going to close.?? (Not a chance,, the sales are thru the roof now))>>>Dan

It just seems contrary to the stay at home orders. I might need to occasionally run out for food or toilet paper, but a gun? Now if I could shoot corona as it entered the house, sure, but... Lolphil-t said:

But if you feel that way (and I do too), wouldn't you already have your gun and therefore not need the gun stores open for the month? I'm just making a point, I couldn't care less whether they're open or not, I just find it odd that they're considered essential.LTG said:
