Arrested for being Drunk at Bars.
I must admit that I have little tolorance for drunks, and even less for being drunk myself. While I enjoy a cold beer or cocktail once in a while I don't like being drunk. Yet this seems pretty stupid.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 public deserves to be protected from drunk drivers, but rather than wait for the drunks to get into their cars and arrest them there, the TABC is arresting them in the bars, because they might get into a car and drive. Most people probably believe that it is safe to go have a few drinks and let the designated driver take them home. Oh, not so Safe in Texas. Carolyn Beck does promise that the stings will continue to operate throughout Texas.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 drunkeness, Beck said.
