How did they Texas Police arrest patrons for "
Public Intoxication" if they were
inside.
For instance:
Quote:
The Code of Iowa note: (Im using Iowa only as a referrence)(123.46) states that a person shall not be intoxicated or simulate intoxication in a public place. A violation of this statute is a simple misdemeanor. The following report is a synopsis of those individuals arrested for this offense. Generally, a person arrested has a BAC (blood alcohol content) of over .10 AND has drawn negative attention to themselves, committed another public offense, or is considered a danger to themselves or to the public.
Source Granted a bar is a public establishment but it's privately owned. So what the hell?
Are they going to police thoughts next? "I'm sorry sir but your under arrest for rape because you
thought about having sex with that woman."
