Idea to send:	Topic The Blue law is antiquated Content It's embarrassing that we still have an alcohol ban on Sundays. There is no practical reason for this ban, referred to as "the blue law" other than the christian designation of Sunday as a holy day, and now, in the 21st century, that should have no bearing on the law. The law was created to get more people to go to church, and it needs to be repealed, and then placed on the ballot to be voted on with proper, modern justification. For example, some may claim that allowing alcohol sales on Sundays will cause more traffic accidents and alcohol related deaths. That may be so, but the fact is, it will only increase such accidents on Sundays. If this is truly the justification for the law, then why Sunday? Why not monday, or friday, or wednesday? The law needs to be removed from the books, REintroduced, and voted on. Similar states, such as Delaware, Maine, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Virgina and New Mexico have already repealed their blue laws. Let's not be last in line to modernize, for a change.
