Drunk With Power

The State of Texas has begun arresting individuals for being drunk, in bars.  According to Carolyn Beck, a spokesperson for the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, the decision to conduct sting operations right in the bar, or what I would term trolling for drunks, is based on the commissions “feelings,” as evidenced by this quote:

"We feel that the only way we’re going to get at the drunk driving problem and the problem of people hurting each other while drunk is by crackdowns like this..."

No word on when the commission will begin “feeling” that two drinks is the maximum number of drinks an individual may be served during a 24 hour period.

Finding drunks in a bar—what are the chances?
