As I have replied to several persons here, the arrests were likely based on violations of public intoxication laws. This issue sounds like a local event where they had been having a problem with certain bars. Time will tell but this could have simply been a warning of sorts or a shot over the bow. Possibly these bars needed a 2x4 between the eyes to wake them.

I wish you were right, but I'm afraid you're not. I thought it was just my city, but apparently it's a statewide problem. A friend of mine who was a bartender at a small, local bar went on duty one night around 8 p.m. She went to wait on a table of what appeared to be a perfectly sober man. He ordered a beer, and she brought it to him. BAM!!! She was cited by the TABC-gestapo for something like serving a 3rd beer in an hour to a guy who had previous DWI offenses and was on some kind of probation. How was she to know?

there is no defense of these actions no matter how you try to sugar coat and/or excuse them.

They say they did it to prevent drunk driving. Time is up.
