This depiction implicitly suggests that individuals who would sample beer at a store are irresponsible. There are four empty cups littering the floor around the men. And it could be construed to imply that the underage clerk himself might have access to beer, and help himself. By portraying someone who might potentially be underage serving beer implies that there's no check to make sure that all samples are given to people of legal drinking age. The figure behind the 'bar' resembles a young store clerk. Yet, here's Joe Heller portraying a bunch of men standing around a grocery store chugging beer at a grocery stand resembling a bar. So basically all Assembly Bill 122 does is make legal for beer what is already legal for wine.

As something simple, they can be incredibly powerful statements of opinion.

When done well, they're clever depictions of complicated issues. And I've always had a thing for political cartoons. Then I got into The Far Side, Calvin and Hobbs, and Doonesbury. When I was little, I read Garfield and Peanuts voraciously. I think everyone that knows me well knows one thing about me: I love comics.
