Texas Cops Fishing a Little Farther Upstream

I guess the police in Texas are tired of waiting for drunks to be drunk outside the bar, and have started arresting drunk people inside the bar. It’s not legal to be drunk in public of course, so this makes sense I guess. They are trying to protect people from hurting themselves and others, before they drink and drive, or step in front of a bus or something.

It just seems wrong somehow doesn’t it? I’m not sure why this strikes me that way, it must hit me in my liver or something. My mis-spent youthful self would be outraged, but my doddering, tired, 3 beer is the limit, middle-aged self is shaking a mental stick and thinking; “Good for them! Those young’uns shouldn’t be out having any fun! Arrest them all, I say! In my day we didn’t have beer, we had boot polish. Where do you think the term “Polished off another one” came from, anyway? I need a nap.”
