[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 601890, member: 52972"] Why are these people dragging all these totally unrelated items in other states into this debate ?????? The prvacy expected in restrooms has nothing to do with the issue of arresting people for public intoxication in Texas. If you wish to start a debate regarding privacy issues in a public restroom, then start another thread. The problem appears to be that some people don't like the fact that Texas law allows police to go into a bar and arrest people who are obviously intoxicated. Since they don't like the way the police have enforced this law, they immediately assume it is illegal, or has some sinister agenda. So to obscure the issue and muddy the waters, they make obsurd, and unfounded claims that the police and the TABC are doing somethin illegal or abusing their power to enforce the law. It has been discussed by all the legal minds and found to be legal. The athorities are looking into whether or not there was any abuse or misconduct by the police in making these arrests, but there was nothing illegal about making the arrest. Will all these people be convicted?? Nobody knows that. So please, let's stop with the conspiracy theories !! I know some people just love to fabricate a good conspiracy plot when they don't like the alternative. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
