Well, Woopdy-do. I am a CHRISTIAN and proud to stand with Commissioner Harrington. And, FWIW, being an Atheist -IS- a religion, whether you want to acknowledge it or not. But ... if we take religion out of it for a moment ... I have seen the affects of alcohol on families far, wide, and close to home. It has DESTROYED families. The alcohol industry supplies the poison which is legally obtained to sick individuals who therein ruin their spouses lives, their children's lives, and their families and friends. Your comments are the absurd ones for the combination of arrogance and ignorance as to how this scourge impacts our communities. As far as "Mayor" Vivian Jones ... you can take your collective "PROGRESSIVE" nonsense and throw it deep into the center of Falls Lake. You just ensured I won't be voting for you.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In reply to <a href="https://wakeforestgazette.com/commissioners-vote-3-1-earlier-liquor-sales/#comment-1870">Eric Johnson</a>.</p> <p>Well, Woopdy-do. </p> <p>I am a CHRISTIAN and proud to stand with Commissioner Harrington.
