[QUOTE="Dale Carlson, post: 601861, member: 56095"] Hear, hear. I have a feeling that what will come to pass is exactly what Joe W. pointed out - that: And Rich, part of what you're writing of is an attempt to regulate morality - that is, decreasing alcoholism by using the law. While that may be an admirable goal, it is really none of yours, mine, or anyone else's (read non-relatives & non-friends) business concerning other people's drinking habits. That is not the business of the law in this country, even though many have tried, and will continue to do so. For the record, I believe in PROBABLE CAUSE, REASONABLE DOUBT, DUE PROCESS, & PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE. So far, I'm not seeing a lot of that in the TABC's application of this law. You know, it only takes a little more than 2 drinks in an hour (for most people) to be legally intoxicated. Does anybody in a bar DESERVE to be arrested for having two drinks? Finally: [/QUOTE]
