[QUOTE="Dale Carlson, post: 601883, member: 56095"] TJR, I don't agree with that because you are freezing a point in time. In fact, human beings have choices and make decisions every single second that can change the course of moment, or an evening, or a lifetime. I'll agree that many make poor decisions, but the time to provide corrective feedback (in the form of a ticket or arrest) is not while they're still enjoying time in their favorite sanctuary. As others have pointed out, there's plenty of time outside of the bar to ambush the poor decisionmakers. Y'know, a lot of people also make good decisions, too. You ought to give people a chance to make'em. Anyway, what I've come to realize is that there are some quite literal-minded people who see this law as straight-forward, black and white, no ifs ands or buts. Then there are others who see the grays and the fuzzy edges in this law. It doesn't look like there's a lot of middle ground. So I've decided that I need to go to Texas, and party until I can get arrested, so I can challenge the law in court. Could take a while... It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it. :lol: [/QUOTE]
