Can we please allow bouncers and bartenders to refer someone to police for being drunk in an easy/common process?
Get referred 3 times by 3 different bars and you get a mandatory alcohol awareness course, get banned from buying alcohol, have to pay a fine, etc.

I made a comment about weird legal mitigation the other day in another post, but this one beats it by a country mile.
>>He was inebriated, I spoke to him earlier today and he doesn’t have a clear memory,” he added. “He had at least 10 pints of beer and had taken a modest amount of cocaine. We say he was moved in a very heavy handed way and the use of force was unnecessary. He was flung out on his back. Physically hurt, and feeling a sense of grievance at the way he was handled, he wanders up the road and makes the drunken decision to return with a knife and attacks the nearest member of door staff.”
>Just 12 minutes later, he returned with a flick knife he thought was legal because the blade didn’t “look that big”.
I have a Henckels paring knife that *is* legal, so I’m not sure why there’s such a fuss every time I stick it into bar staff that I believe might have “disrespected” me. There’s too much red tape around stabbing, I’m telling youse.

And a good time was had by all (except the bouncer). Thank God we have strict gun control. Most of us would be dead otherwise.

I thought these gender reveal parties were solely the preserve of American hillbillies until I was at a pub last Sunday which had been taken over by some Live Laugh Love family, making a big deal out of popping a plastic champagne bottle firework thing.

Some people just cannot or should not be allowed alcohol.
Some can handle it some just fucking lose their shit (nose candy aside)

Ahhhhhh I remember the good old days it was all so simple. The Sonographer said “would you like to know what you’re having”. If you say yes, they gave you the answer. All done and dusted in minutes tops.

As you do…
What is it about gender reveal parties in particular that seems to cause them to get massively out of hand? This is actually on the tame end of things, considering they’ve ended with [bush fires](https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/04/us/gender-reveal-party-fire-florida-trnd/index.html) and [fucking plane crashes.](https://edition.cnn.com/2023/09/04/americas/mexico-gender-reveal-plane-crash-scli-intl)
