Dirty Greek - 'Cap Popping' Bill Passes Through Committee!

It is certainly true that 'God' is often reduced to an idol created in the image and likeness of 'his' worshippers. If we imagine God to be a being like ourselves writ large, with likes and dislikes similar to our own, it is all too easy to make 'him' endorse some of our most uncharitable, selfish, and even lethal hopes, fears, and prejudices. This limited God has thus contributed to some of the worst religious atrocities in history.

From Beerinator:

The vote was 18-11 in favor of HB392.

The bill now moves forward to the House ABC committee before it will be presented to a vote in the entire House.

In other news; Mutual Distributing is still being a huge Jerkwad. They are still lobbying to change HB392 to fit their needs. Fortunately for beer and wine lovers everywhere Mutual's lobbying efforts suffered a big failure today.

The next stop for HB392 is the ABC committee, and it just so happens that the chairman of the ABC committee is a half owner of Mutual Distributing. Let us hope that he sees how much of a conflict of interest his participation in this vote really is.

HB392 would remove the 6% alcohol volume limit from beer in North Carolina.
