Like shooting fish in a barrel

Texas busting drunks ... in bars 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.

Leave it to the great state of Texas. Maybe the first thing they should think about tackling is the fact that they have the most drive-thru liquor stores in the country?!
