Linden Bar And Liquors Is Open Again

3 comments

by Adam Meister, Baltimore Politics Examiner

Life is not fair.

A man is shot in the head in the middle of one of the most controversial liquor establishments in Baltimore on Saturday, but it is open again today.

Richard Bittner, the lawyer for the store, threatened to file a law suit if the store was not allowed to open and generate revenue. The liquor board did not want it to open by they were forced to reinstate the liquor license.

Stephan Fogleman, the head of the board, expects there to be another hearing in about ten days. He says the board's main legislative goals in the house of delegates/State Senate this coming year will be to gain powers to gain emergency powers. He feels there will be no abuse of discretion amongst the three board members since they are all experienced professionals with diverse backgrounds and are known throughout many communities.

This is a sad day for Reservoir Hill. I have been meaning to compile a list of politicians who have received money from KAGRO (Korean-American Grocers and Licensed Beverage Association of Maryland). When the liquor board originally decided to close Linden Liquors there were many state level politicians who were very angry for some reason. KAGRO was also annoyed. I wonder if after this shooting they finally get it?
