After watching the show "Moonshiners," I'm left wondering... if you're looking to produce a quality whiskey, are you better off having a high alcohol content and distilling once (for example, adding sugar to the mash and using yeast with a really high attenuation) or going with a lower initial alcohol content and then perhaps distilling twice?

Does the lack of a pool of (legal) hobbyists in any way affect innovations in whiskey production? Specifically, I'm thinking of how home brewers and smaller breweries affected the current craft beer market.

I don't have a still, nor have I ever distilled anything, but I DO have a new grooming technique.

thanks for the answer!

Also the "safe storage" of firearms basically requires my 4th ammendemt right to be violated

and is directly contra-Heller.

I think the fact that he's still booking tours tells you people still like Achmed. Watch any of his comedy specials. All of his characters are hits.

"Why have any laws at all? Criminals don't follow them anyway!"

Look. this is terrible logic and not what gun owners want. We don't ask you to "do nothing" we ask you to "do nothing...that only affects law abiding Citizens." One guy used a rental truck to kill 70(?) people in France, but we don't ban rental trucks for the people that use them legally. Sure, we're all for putting laws in place that curtail criminals from getting guns, but every single proposition involves further infringing on everyone's 2nd Amendment Rights for no good reason. Do what might actually works, not what feels good. Take Rights away from criminals, not from the law abiding. If you're not careful about restricting the Rights you choose not to exercise because you don't like them, you might find yourself fighting tooth and nail against infringements on the Rights you do enjoy.
