I just watched that video. Holy shit! What a bunch of lunatics. Now I really need that glass of wine.
Oh you can buy porn here. We have two stores. One that is retail only and that's where I worked and then one that's a smut shop with the theatre and booths. It's in a strip mall and when it started up it was right across from a quilt shop ran by old women. They complained about how it was affecting their business because their churchy customers wouldn't do business there because they had to walk past the adult book store. The windows were blacked out but I guess the thought of large rubber penises within a hundred feet or so of them just scared them away. The county attorney raided them twice and once people were arrested for prostitution and someone had some crank on them. They are still there though and the old women had to move their quilt shop. They were pissed but it's a free country and the little churchy people lost that fight. That porn shop is a corporation and they paid an expensive lawyer to eat our county attorney alive. It was great!
You can buy alcohol here too. I can go about a mile down the road and get beer from a boot legger. They also probably have a variety of pills, some pot, and maybe some crack. Depends on the boot legger. I could actually be arrested for buying a case of beer off of someone here. I can drive to the next county over and buy all the alcohol I want and bring it home...just can't buy it here. It's insane and people have faught hard to get a wet vote in here but it never goes. The preachers want to keep buying beer and whiskey from boot leggers because they keep their drinking a secret. They are hypocrites around here and they preach all of this holier than thou crap but they are really the bad people. Sleeping with sixteen year old girls, cheating with other church members, drinking, even doing drugs. They do it all here but pretend to be perfect. My neighbor cheated on his wife but he looks down on us because we have an empty case of beer sitting out by our garbage can every now and then. I don't even want to know what he has to say about my Darwin fish or when I've laid out in a bikini to tan.
Landover Baptist Church is a great place to visit. http://www.landoverbaptist.org/sermons/index.html I always get a good laugh out of this site.

I've been to that site a few times...LOLOL.. yes, great site..
dlf, your place sounds pretty damn close to where I live here in LA...
It's funny, I can go 5 miles down the road and buy beer/wine/liquor etc. on Sunday, but the blue laws have stayed in effect in my area..... Truly sad...lol
If there is one thing I can say about the "Bible Belt".. is that it's full of hypocrites.

Yeah the pictures are mild but they were really loud and obnoxious. The funniest thing about them was that I thought one of the men had a mega phone but he was really just shouting. He was yelling "You are going to Hell" to the cars as they drove by. We pulled in to get gas at the gas station where I took those pictures and they were yelling at us. I'd like to know how they can tell if someone is Christian or not by just looking? Many of the Christians in town were offended by the fact they were telling Christians to "get right with God". They are so ignorant it's not even funny. Not to mention just plain scary. I love how Christians tell others they are going to Hell. They freely show how hypocritical they are by pretending to be God and pretending to know God's thoughts. I think their religion states that only God knows about each persons salvation. Morons.
Yes I'd say Louisiana is about like us here in Kentucky. Different accent and different food but still the same type of inbred country folk. Oh in our "wet" counties you can't buy alcohol on Sunday. The liquor stores close around 1AM Sunday morning. The gas stations that sell it have chains on the cooler doors so that no one can even steal alcohol on Sunday. It's really ignorant.

DLF, the funny thing is, that my travels usually carry me to Cincinnati. The second I get off the OH/KT airport, I drive down to the nearest gas stating and buy my carton of smokes there. Ohio's taxes are ridiculous on cigarettes and Kentucky's is much better..loLOL...

Kentucky's cash crop is tobacco and it's history is rich in tobacco growing. I think it has changed to Marijuana and the last I heard more money is now made off of that than tobacco. Either way we have a lot of smokers in this state who want cheap smokes because they think it's their god given right. We will tax the hell out of alcohol to pay for school books but usually they won't touch the tobacco.

So how much is a pack of smokes in Kentucky? In Washington (state not DC) they are $5.85 (?) a pack. I don't smoke, but my husband does and I still can't figure out why he is willing to pay so much money for nails in his coffin.

I have no idea. I'm not a smoker and neither is my husband. My brother in law stocks up on cartons of smokes when he comes here. He says the cartons are around ten dollars cheaper than in West Virginia. My family is an anomaly in that none of us smoke. Everyone smokes it seems like around here. They even allow it in grocery stores and restaraunts.

As in prohibition days? I thought boot legging was out lawd.
I know a priest here in Oregon that smokes and drinks! And he is Irish.
Oregon has a liquor control commission, we are one of the four states that still has an lcc.

Ha yes just like prohabition. Boot legging is against the law. We still have them though. If you don't want to drive thirty miles to the liquor store you can hit up a boot legger for a case of some cheap beer or cheap whiskey! Boot leggers are good and bad. They provide people with alchohol on a pinch and usually have pot so you can do a one stop shop deal. Also, they are open on Sundays! Unlike liquor stores that have to close here on God's day. The bad thing is that they don't card and will sell alcohol to anyone who can hand them the money for it. When I was a teen I drank more alcohol than after I turned 21. It was easy to get. One of the arguments that those anti alcohol voters try to use is that teens will drink more if they make it legal. All of us who have bought alcohol from a bootlegger as a teen have told them that it's much easier for a teen to buy it from a bootlegger. They never listen to us because they know how easy it is for kids to get here....they buy from the same bootlegger. That's another thing...preachers and church people will go to a bootlegger to get alcohol because no one will see them and they can pretend they don't do it. If it's legal they will be seen in stores buying it here. We have moon shiners too. I have a family member that was busted over the summer for making moon shine and had a few pot plants. Actually, we have a fifth of moon shine on it's way from WV right now. I don't know if some of you know what moon shine is but it's homemade grain alcohol so you never know what you'll get. It's usually made from corn or potatoes and it's so strong you have to keep it in a glass jar. Usually around 199 proof but the bad side is that it's easy to drink too much and get alcohol poisoning and sometimes it will be a bad batch and might kill you. You really can't tell a bad batch from a good batch until you drink it! It will literally eat it's way through a milk jug. The feeling one gets from it is very euphoric. Not heavy and sloppy like bourbon whiskey and not numb like vodka. It's a big thing in the south. Actually it's just Ethanol and I know a man who converted his car to over to ethanol and raises potatoes to turn into gas for his vehicle. He donated some to our company christmas party and we all got pretty messed up off of it last year.
