Wine in TN Grocery Stores

If you've ever lived in or spent much time in a state that permits wine to be sold in grocery stores, you know that Tennessee's prohibition on same is just a relic of America's pitiful Prohibition madness. In my opinion, the Against lists below are where you'll find your Nanny Staters, false and fascist religionists (hey, Jesus drank wine), and those in the pocket of Tennessee's liquor lobby. Again in my opinion, the Undecided lists below are where you'll find the typical cowards we let stay in office in this State.

This list via the lobbying group Red White and Food. Email your legislator through http://www.capitol.tn.gov/.
