SENATE BILL SEEKS TO LIMIT POWERS OF ABC ENFORCEMENT AGENTS

A bill sponsored by State Senator Scott Flippo (R-Bull Shoals) will prohibit ABC Enforcement Agents from enforcing rules against gambling devices in permitted businesses.

STATE SENATOR SCOTT FLIPPO (R-BULL SHOALS) GIVES THE ABC THE STINK EYE




We posted a story on February 2nd (CLICK TO VIEW POST ) about ABC Enforcement agents going after kids at two NW Arkansas family centered businesses for exchanging tickets for candy or prizes.

Many state legislators have complained about ABC Enforcement Agents issuing citations to business in their districts.  

Some of those businesses target by the ABC were VFW Posts.  One particular VFW Post is frequented by ABC Board member Mickey Powell.

We have also reported that we were contacted by several of these same legislators in regard to information we have obtained about tainted ABC Enforcement Director Boyce Hamlet.

This gives more credence to the rumors circulating that Hamlet is on his last days as ABC Enforcement Director.  

It is important to note that Filppo is a Republican. Hamlet has really stepped in it this time and can't play the retard card in this instance like he did when he was fired by the Arkansas State Police.

The Arkansas Times had this to say about the proposed legislation:

LRSD investigation file of Kendahl Davenport's entanglement with student leaves more questions than answers

An "unprofessional" relationship between a Parkview student, Justin Lanier and a teacher Kendahl Davenport was the talk of the town this week  ________ We were contacted by a LRSD employee/whistleblower over the weekend and broke this story on April 13, 2026 at 7:43 a.m. Other media outlets saw our post and scrambled to catch up. Our post about this on social media and other news outlet regurgitating it sent LRSD into a tailspin and the superintendent issued a statement. LRSD attempted to spin the story with little success. We submitted AFOIA requests to LRSD for copies of personnel files and records regarding applicants for the position that Davenport was hired to fill. Other news outlets continued to post stories. And they specifically referenced our April 13th social media post that broke the story and indicated that it going viral was problematic for the school district. Unrelenting pressure on LRSD from news media and citizens forced the superintendent to issue another s...
