The Political Environment: Wisconsin, land of faster shots

Wednesday, March 18, 2015

What other state is fast-tracking legislation to a) raise the speed limit, b) drop the 48-hour so-called cooling off period governing handgun sales, and c) allow vendors to give away in-store, hard-liquor samples?

It's really on top of every citizens list that they get a free sample of liquor. These clowns need more than one clown car to fit them all in. If we don't get rid of these goofs in the 2016 elections we all deserve to be run over by a car going 70 mph.; March 18, 2015 at 3:42 PM

I can drive around all day, get free samples of booze, get toasted for free, and speed race on the hwy." If they are going to approve 1/2 ounce samples of one per visit, can we go in the store 10 times for 5 ounces and then go drive. Shouldn't it have been one sample per day. Don't we have much more serious problems in this state than what a certain liquor tastes like. What a waste of legislative time.; March 18, 2015 at 3:50 PM
