DANG!!!

 

[TBone]

Another example of government waste. Isn't it sacreligous to pour out/waste JD??

 

[Firefyter-emt]

I don't drink myself, but this is a case once again where OUR government officials need to get THIER hands out of MY business! This economy is going in the tank, and they decide to take up the case of 100 year old alcohol and "waste" a million dollars... freaking unbelievable!

 

[wudnhed]

Uh what[?][:0][B)][][!][V]

 

[ahoiberg]

total bummer...

 

[Ligget]

Terrible waste, and I thought it was only the UK that has lots of goverment IDIOTS!

 

[fiferb]

They should sell it for what its worth and put the money to good use, like improving schools and roads.

To me, it's irrelevant whether one drinks this stuff or not. The stupidity of these so-called Legislators is amazing.
I've always wondered how a whole bunch of intelligent individuals could come together to form a Collective Moron, but our government proves the case time after time after time.

 

[Texatdurango]

Just more proof that GOD loves idiots....... because he made so many of them!

 

[gwilki]

Our government does the same thing here in the Great White North. I can see it for stuff distilled in the bush. No one would ever know if it was full of rat ****, but 100 yr old stuff in sealed bottles?? As others have said, don't look for common sense in legislation, or for justice in courts.

 

[drayman]

best thing for that stuff,, the bestwhisky comes from scotland[}][][^]

 

[toolcrazy]

Why don't they auction it off and use the money for schools or somthing. What a waste.

 

[richstick1]

Ok, I'll play devil's advocate [] Right in the article it states that the reason for action is due to state law. Would you prefer to have them blatantly ignore state law? If they can ignore one law, what's to stop them from ignoring another?

Laws are changed all the time. They need to figure out a better solution -- alter the law to prevent an outcome that surely wasn't envisioned and so that something of value isn't totally wasted.

Ship it to me, I'll sell it all, errr, most of it, mmmm some of it, aw, who am I kidding.[]
