Texas Busts Drunks - In Bars!

Filed under: Human Nature, Law — Posted by Irony Queen on March 23rd, 2006


The state of Texas has taken to busting people who are drunk. In bars!

Said Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission spokesperson, Carolyn Beck, “There are a lot of dangerous and stupid things people do when they’re intoxicated, other than get behind the wheel of a car.”

Yeesh, if you can’t get drunk in the privacy of your neighborhood bar where everybody knows your name, then where?

How Ironic is This??

3 Irons: "Some might see some irony in this."
4 Irons: Tinged with Irony
5 Irons: Now That's Ironic!
