1. I am OK with strip clubs (or other 'adult only' businesses) be restricted near schools. 2. There is no designated "AA" building where people have meetings. Meetings are held in pretty much wherever they can find cheap space - this includes churches, social concerns buildings, office building, industrial parks, etc, so even if it made sense to restrict liquor stores from being near an AA meeting place, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to enforce since the locations of AA meetings tend to change from time to time.
