WTF is going on in Texas these days? From Reuters:

SAN ANTONIO, Texas (Reuters) -- Texas has begun sending undercover agents into bars to arrest drinkers for being drunk, a spokeswoman for the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission said Wednesday.

The first sting operation was conducted recently in a Dallas suburb where agents infiltrated 36 bars and arrested 30 people for public intoxication, said the commission's Carolyn Beck.

Being in a bar does not exempt one from the state laws against public drunkenness, Beck said.

The goal, she said, was to detain drunks before they leave a bar and go do something dangerous like drive a car.

"We feel that the only way we're going to get at the drunk driving problem and the problem of people hurting each other while drunk is by crackdowns like this," she said.

"There are a lot of dangerous and stupid things people do when they're intoxicated, other than get behind the wheel of a car," Beck said. "People walk out into traffic and get run over, people jump off of balconies trying to reach a swimming pool and miss."

She said the sting operations would continue throughout the state.

Welcome to the new world order. It's really sad just how many rights people have taken away from them in this day and age.

Trickle down christian social republicanism. Mississippi and Tennessee are also outlawing sex toys. Thanks again GOP.

And it fucks the bar owner more than anyone.

Why go to a bar where you can potentially get arrested when you can buy a liquor at a liquor store for less money and just drink at your own house.

ESPECIALLY in Texas where you can fucking grill outside 365 days a year. Fuck that I'd never go to a bar if I lived in Texas.

But, but, where can the rednecks go to pick up their trailer trash?

Oh, wait, they can cruise high school dances. Never mind.

I'm just glad I have a government that can save me from myself. Life would be awful difficult if I had to make my own decisions.

The sheeple want to live in a world where no one is allowed to do shit incase they do something retarded. Look at how long the war on drugs has been goin on and look at how rabid some people get when you talk about drugs. Its bullshit but what are you gonna do? Lemme break it down like a lotta cool people might say. " where in the constitution does it say you have the right to drink go to the bar smoke indoors etc?" lotta clowns got that idea in there heads and we all suffer becuase of it.

by **Captain Insano** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 12:03 pm

Spazz is right. I said it before and I will say it again...Americans are hands down the dumbest civilized people in the world.

Half this country would probably agree to put a cop on every corner and outlaw damn near everything if they could get away with it, just so all the soccer mom's and their awful children could feel a little bit safer.

I think a lot of the pussification of America and the bullshit we now have to put up with stems from allowing women and minorities the ability to hold public office and vote.

We need to revoke those rights and get back to kicking ass and making money. The things that America used to excel at.

Dont forget about personeel freedom ralph i think we were good at that at one point too

by **Captain Insano** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 4:04 pm

Yah we were very good at that at one point. America is so up in arms these days about appealing to these fucking pussy ass bitches who want the entire country santized and safe at the cost of everyone's freedoms.

Most of these people are women and homosexuals. Both shouldn't be allowed to vote anymore OH and the godamn christians....they're banned too.

I actually believe in god, but fucking christians piss me the fuck off. They are always pushing their beliefs on everyone else.

Screw them. I have a project I'm working on right now that is 15 computers for a church and I think i'm going to install free donkey porn on their out of spite.

They bust you for public intoxication, which is still illegal.

You can't legally grill in TExas at the moment. There is a burn ban in most counties because it is so dry. THere was a huge rainstorm that caused flodding last week, so apparantly some counties have temporarily lifted the burn ban.

Do you think the average person cares? Face it, the average American is fat, lazy and stupid, period.

The average American is like a fat, lazy lab rat. Give them plenty of Reality TV and technology so they don't have to get off their fat asses to change the channel and you can take away all their freedoms - without much trouble (like shooting a lab rat full of toxins to see what happens).

Just don't fuck with their entertainment and you're good to go - soon as you do that - THEN you'll have hell to pay.

Go out and ask 10 really smart Americans if they know who the Secretary of State is.... now ask them if they know who got booted off American Idol during last week's episode - see what you get.

People are fucking morons. Think about it. How many of you know a really smart person who reads a couple of pages out of PC World and suddenly thinks they can rip their computer apart to "fix" some mysterious problem, only to end up having to call tech support and blaming the tech guy for the computer being a "piece of shit."

God I hate people. I really do.

We really need to have a national gas chamber. If you can't pass a basic standardized test... you know like actually KNOWING where the fuck Canada is on a globe, who your president is... so on... you die before you fucking breed more stupid fucking people.

Did I mention I really hate human beings?
