Frankie Schnarr is my new hero. I find it inspiring when business owners put their freedom on the line for their customers, and that's exactly what he's doing. The liquor and cannabis board in Washington state is attacking Frankie's Sports Bar and Grill in Olympia because he's allowing his customers to smoke cannabis.

He's doing it in a brilliant way - he has a private club upstairs from the bar, in a different unit of the building, where customers can go to smoke up. First though, they must become club members at a cost of $20 for a year or $3 for a day to try it out. Ten years ago he did the same thing for cigarette smokers after smoking was banned and he was successful, but the state agents are renewing their attack against him - suspending his liquor license for five days. He kept selling liquor anyway!

Now they're telling him his license is suspended for FORTY days, but he says they can't do that without giving him an administrative hearing - which they are refusing to do. Tonight on my nationally syndicated radio show, "Free Talk Live" we discussed Frankie's situation in detail in our first hour. In hour two - he called in and spoke with us about the situation for multiple segments!

Here's a link to the full show, and here's a link that starts when he calls in.
