Can we kick them out of the union?

The state of Texas is arresting people who are drunk - in bars! In an attempt to prevent disorderly conduct and drunk driving, undercover officers are going into bars and arresting anyone who is considered to be overly intoxicated. I'm all for stopping drunk drivers -- but arresting drunken people while they're in the bar???!!! What kind of sense is this?

On the news report I saw a woman who was arrested while she was partying in her hotel bar. She didn't have any intention of driving, since she'd just go upstairs to her room! A few of the folks arrested for drunk and disorderly had designated drivers with them! This is scary, and I hope these people sue the hell out of the Lone Star state. I think Texas has easily taken the lead in the dumbass state competition with this one.
