Arrow Big improvements.

I have this other reform idea that we could improve the law by making so Bars can stay open all night 24 hours every day, and that way the patrons would not have to leave or drive at or before 2am.

That would make for less DUIs / DWIs and a patron would then be able to sleep in their automobile if they needed to, and then there would be no last-call-for-alcohol where people are hurried up to drink their last fast drink at the arbitrary 2am closing time.

Closing Bars at 2am is totally arbitrary and capricious and no real reason for it.

I have spoken with people employed in drinking places that some say they do not like this idea but their points are not sustainable. Because the bar would be able to employ a night shift and a morning shift or they could decide to close their place at 1am or at 5am or whenever they choose.

Long ago I lived a while in New Orleans with 24 hour liquor sales and in the Dance Halls they would have one band ending like at 3am and a new next shift replacement band come in and start performing at 3am and it worked out just fine.

Of course I must point out that this is only a side issue while my foremost priority is in reforming the child support and custody system.

You are really kidding now, right?

I suppose that since you have not had the personal responsibility to work in the last 20 years, you would have no problem with drunks on the road at rush hour.
I on the other hand think that having people leaving the bars and driving to work drunk at the same time that school kids are standing on the corners waiting for the bus, could present some problems.

please stop posting, every time you come up with some new demented idea, it just makes you look like even a bigger idiot.

wait a second, I get it.
maybe the drunk can run over some child that has divorced parents, and the death of that child could end the fathers debt.

what a genius you are.

It's actually getting kind of fun seeing the idiotic ideas he's coming up with, can't wait to see what's next. Anyone care to venture a guess?

There is no reason to so much distrust our fellow citizens in doing what is best, and this would be laws that help the Bar patron to do their best.

You are just being paranoid in seeing school kids dying and rush hour drunks.

This is a very pro-active idea.

I mentioned NAMBLA earlier, I'm pretty sure that once he looks at them he will see their value.

but, I wont put legalizing rape past him. It is not fair to punish a man for doing what nature intended him to do. Breed, and if the woman does not wish to breed, it is the mans duty to force her.

My dirty mind?

I don't think so.
you on the other hand are certainly showing a lack of respect and concern for decent people.
you are, a real life POS.

but thanks for playing.
