The Newspaper reported the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board is
trying to block Thom Greco's attempt
to regain a liquor license for The Mines nightclub, saying the Wilkes-Barre
businessman is not a "reputable person" due to his felony conviction
during the Luzerne County public corruption scandal.
Oxymoron: It is an oxymoron (two things that don’t together)
to suggest there are ANY reputable bar owners. Anybody in the business knows
that approximately 90-95% of alcohol is drank by alcoholics.

What does this tell us? It tells us the “alccohol dealers” satisfy the
alcoholic’s cravings in the same way drug dealers satisfying their customers’
fixes. A drug is a drug is a drug.
… Back to Thom Greco
It appears that some people don’t care for Thom Greco. I can’t
speak to that as I have lived outside the area most of my adult life. But this
doesn’t mean the laws should be applied unfairly against him. The LCB is claiming
him to be disreputable.
1)
A
felony charge for “misprision” was
levied against him. What is it? Basically it’s a law that says you have to “rat
out” someone – even if you are the victim and want to let the perpetrator go
(Greco’s case). Black’s Law Dictionary lists it as archaic and it may represent
the most flimsy and meritless of felonies.
2)
I
know he doesn’t drink. That is reputable.
3)
It
is stated that he received $5.8 million deal allegedly over spending $14k at :Big
Uglies.” Any reasonable person would assume one would have to pony up a lot
more than $14k (just 2/10 of 1 per cent).
4)
The
club was cited for serving a visibly intoxicated person (ONE!!!).
For this last entry – Greco should receive a Gold Medal. Just one?
Amazing
Consider other so called “reputable” bar owners
A) How about the owner’s of the Pitcher’s Mound
where there was just a bust? Reputable?
B) What about the “steroid monkey” Mike Mackey who
was so drunk he couldn’t realize that repetitively punching an unconscious man
(A Gipson) may actually kill him? Is the owner of the bar where Mackey drank (Joe
K’s Brew House?) now considered reputable?
C) What about the bars that feed Leighton so much
alcohol that cops are pulled off their beat to take him home. Would you call
these owners reputable?
The point here is the law needs to be applied evenly. There are
far worse than Greco and these people should be included in any discussion regarding
license revocations,
