Texas arresting people in bars for being drunk
Various news sites [23/03/2006]

TEXAS has begun sending undercover agents into bars to arrest drinkers for being drunk, a spokeswoman for the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission said on Wednesday.

The first sting operation was conducted recently in a Dallas suburb where agents infiltrated 36 bars and arrested 30 people for public intoxication, said the commission`s Carolyn Beck.

Being in a bar does not exempt one from the state laws against public drunkenness, Beck said. The goal, she said, was to detain drunks before they leave a bar and go do something dangerous like drive a car.

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

"There are a lot of dangerous and stupid things people do when they are intoxicated, other than get behind the wheel of a car," Beck said. "People walk out into traffic and get run over, people jump off of balconies trying to reach a swimming pool and miss."

She said the sting operations will continue throughout the state.

I think it was Ron White who said... "I was drunk in a bar, they threw me into public!"

Commercial advertising, reality shows and television genre in general, is being dumbed down constantly. Is this a statement that society is gradually becoming more and more stupid?

Todays advertisers are trying to force feed their crap down our collective throats without any regard to right and wrong, BS or Not? Everyone should evaluate these advertising schemes and related products for themselves before making any purchase, anytime, anywhere.

She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving!"
