show me where I ever suggest the banning of booze. The discussion is about the legality of public drunkenness. I have no problem with people going to bars and having a good time, I have trouble with them getting drunk in public. The two are not the same.

Maybe you don't advocate banning booze, but you seem comfortable with field sobrity tests just in case someone might decide to drive after having been drinking.

I will not drive if my BAC is over the legal limit, however I am not DRUNK........the term DRUNK is totally subjective.

If I'm sitting at the bar and have had 4 or 5 beers my BAC is going to be over the legal limit for driving, but that doesn't mean I'm DRUNK. It means I will not be getting behind the wheel of a car, but that is because I take responsibility for my actions.

Sorry - I can not accept what was done here. It's entrapment, plain and simple.

I'd wager there are some good ole boys in some backwood honkie tonks in Tx that would love to see you and some of these tabc fellows drop by their backwoods bar.

Nope, shant treat these cowboys like that...are you kidding, those drunk cowboys would kick their asses. So these sissies, just like some here would, take the safe route and get the civilized drinkers in city bars...far less likely to resist much less start a knock down drag out somebody is gonna die fight.

"The discussion is about the legality of public drunkenness."

OK, what is your definition of drunk?
