I didn't really take a position in my comment, except to note that the peculiarities of either case (whether it's Shaw's Tavern or the Cap City Diner) don't really provide an illustrative window into the permitting and licensing process and regulation.

I was speaking to the logic of the article, not the substance of the regulations.

For the rest of your post, I think it's telling that you mesh a rundown liquor store with a post about a gastropub that needs a liquor license - these are not even close to equivalent cases. Likewise, it's true that alcohol can be destructive in people's lives - but I'd argue that has little to do with restaurants that would like to serve beer and wine with food.
