Why stop there? Ban coolers and ice too

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Two Republican lawmakers have introduced a bill that would prohibit the sale of refrigerated or cold beer in Tennessee. 

SB2636 was introduced Jan. 31 and is sponsored by Sen. Paul Rose (R — District 32) and Rep. Ron Gant (R — District 94).

And apparently it's not going over very well.

  1. The way they keep screwing over their constituents, the republican party should change it's logo from an elephant to a dildo.

  6. Better still, citizens should consider using dildos on all deserving pols. On second thought maybe not, pols would line up for a jab.

  8. Probably Baptists, they won't talk to you in line at the liquor store either.

  9. This is why you need to keep the Bible-thumpers out of politics. Even if they are otherwise conservative. Because if they don't believe in protection of individual rights and freedom, they always have some version of someone else's rules you should be forced to follow. Stalin's, Mao's, or some religious twat.
    What are the odds they are Baptist? Or worse, some kind of born-again Holy Rollers?

    1. Tennessee is unique in that by law both atheists and reverends are barred from holding legislative office.

  10. The idea is to stop people from popping the top on a cold one while they drive.
    The county I grew up in in Metro Atlanta ( Clayton Co.) allowed beer sales at gas stations etc., but no singles unless it was a quart or so.
    I think they eventually got the idea that forcing someone to by a six pack just meant they had six to drink and drive on and changed the policy.

  19. So does that mean you can't walk into a bar, sit down and get a frosty mug of your favorite libation?

  20. They stopped selling singles in my old county years ago. The guys on the jobsite just put a cooler in the bed of the truck and keep refreshing the ice out of the company ice machine every day. Problem solved. These kind of laws have little to no effect.

  21. I think we should start banning lawmakers. What we need are law UNmakers! For any new legislation proposed, 50 BS laws have to be revoked!
