Default store selling flasks right or wrong?

WCSH6.com | Portland, ME | Store That Caters to Young Girls is Selling Flasks

this was my response i posted up..

people in other counties us flasks to carry water.

how is this any worse then, stores that sell bongs, and say they are for tobacco? who the hell smokes tobacco from a bong?
i have yet to see any one. is it possible..yes.. but very doubtful. what about Spencer's? they don't ID people of age.
and yet they sell sex toys..
i rather have my child looking at flasks then sex toys.

my point is there are alot worse things out there to have a fit over then a flask. after all vodka can be carried in a Poland spring bottle at school and no one would know.. how do you think i know this? flask or not flask kids will be kids. it's hard to stop some one that is determined.
you guys can vote, there also you don't have to register.. and if you refresh the page you can vote multiple times
i votes yes, simply because there are worse things for sale and should be focused on besides a flask.
that's what makes us a free country because we can sell this crap.. i don't think we should Be told what we can and can not sell


i think people are voting under the assumption flasks are for alcohol?
kids don't know they are used for alcohol until you tell them.. seem like they just said on the new that's what they are for?

This is AMERICA, you just can't assume people are going to break the law, by buying a flask

Alright... I put no, just because I don't think a jewelry shop should be selling flasks at all, but I think you need another option in the poll... "I don't care" because I really don't. I'm not saying they should be banned from selling flasks, because they should be able to sell whatever they want, its a "Free" country , but I don't think they really need to sell flasks, or even have a real market for them, so why bother ?

i dunno, it does seem odd a jewelery shop selling flask, i agree..

my jeweler sells clocks,globes.... that's not jewelry either..then again walmart has jewelry and they sell flasks, and guns too!

hehehe, Wal Mart sells everything though!
They'll get you brisket rub, a gun to kill the cow with, a smoker to cook it with, a tent to camp out in, one of those mini-bikes... a PS3 to play while the brisket is being smoked...

gotta be versatile in today's business...
like i said though, i does seem outa place.. but is it wrong? i would say no

Spencer's used to be just a odd joke shop, now they have sex toys.. in a public mall!
they don't check ID's.. i would think that would be more of a concern

Hell go into any College Campus bookstore and all of em I've been in sell shot glasses, beer mugs and I know I've seen flasks in a few of em but I really just didn't pay that much attention for all I know they may all have them to.

If it is legal to own then any store should be allowed to sell whatever they want. If ME wants to a 21+ age restriction on buying flasks then that's fine but you can't tell people what to sell.

kinda stupid if you ask me... but then again they sell playboy bunny stuff at the icing... and I'm sure the kids ask "hey mommy what is playboy?"... the flask will probably go over better...
