I've been trying to find out, but haven't seen anything yet. <BR/><BR/>Personally, this is my neighborhood, and if anything I'd like to see Shiloh close down and more restaurants (with liquor licenses) open up.... Shouldn't I have more say than the maryland church commuters?

After all, a restaurant "affects kids" because kids might see somebody wolfing down his food and then get slapped for doing the same.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835710.post-1151627067218860632006-06-29T20:24:00.000-04:002006-06-29T20:24:00.000-04:00I don't think that the bill says that only a nice ...I don't think that the bill says that only a nice place like Vegetate can open up close to schools and churches. I think that it says any old joint can open. Then the joint will ask for an outdoor patio, then we will wonder how these places got a licence to operate in a residential neighborhood.<BR/><BR/>I do think alcohol sales in restaurants can affect kids. I saw a man slap his son in Etta's because the kid chugged his soda. Unknown to dad, the kid was copycatting a guy at the next table drinking a beer. <BR/><BR/>I think the Argonault (with it kind of closed in bar area)is a better environment for families than the so called family restaurant Martys on 8th street,which has a bar area that looks like a shiny alter to alcohol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835710.post-1151615445116793842006-06-29T17:10:00.000-04:002006-06-29T17:10:00.000-04:00It is quite ridiculous.
