You know that won't happen, Paul. Some people only get out for parties like this once or twice a year and they like to have a few drinks with friends. Just because one person doesn't drink doesn't mean that everyone else shouldn't either. Some people like to let loose once in a while and not have to worry about getting behind the wheel.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Absolutely agreed! That doesn't mean, nor give them the right, to act like a bunch of 16 year olds that just got out for the first time. Trust me, I have raised more hell than you can ever imagine but I never acted up with a group that affected a bunch of other people.

The case in point is this thread. If a certain few hadn't acted up we wouldn't be having this discussion.

No boat, back in the suds.

You're 100% right. I'm usually the designated driver so I see all kinds of stupidity when I'm out for the night. Not to say I haven't been a participant in some of it, but I've never been kicked out of a place or been arrested (at least not since I was a teenager).
