They didn't always arrest the belligerent drunk on the spot (unless he had assaulted someone or destroyed property), but they made it clear he wasn't welcome on the premises and the consequences would be dire if he ignored that warning.<br /><br />But in those days, people didn't sue bar owners because their patrons couldn't handle their liquor. We live in an upside down world.RebeccaHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15113907852048577121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11072522.post-11964620860999315982011-09-14T17:40:53.438+10:002011-09-14T17:40:53.438+10:00I just don't understand how the cops in your t...I just don't understand how the cops in your town and the bar owners have such a bad relationship. Where I live, on a Friday or Saturday night, the cops are there in minutes and they are totally suppotive of the bartender that called for them. <br /><br />That person you describe (the guy who threw a sunker punch), he'd be on his way to the county jail if that happened where I live. And he'd have two choices on how he went to county, easy or hard. And the cops where I live rather enjoy when some drunk asshole chooses "hard".Dave from Tacomanoreply@blogger.com
