thanks mal---i kinda sensed something like this...the logic of working to reduce drunk driving gets extended, following on some moralizing logic, to other "bad decisions"--yay---i think the state should take this all the way---all bad decisions should be pre-empted....
falling unwittingly for a real estate scam?---no problem----because bad investments lead to bad outcomes lead to shock and disappointment leads to drinking as medication leads to drunk driving and other bad things, arrest the investor before the contract is signed. another life saved...
a girl is preparing to break up with her boyfriend, using the "its not you its me" line-well, you know how that goes----so arrest her...
a graduate student is preparing for master's exams and is really feeling the pressure and decides to join up with friends to blow off some steam--o no, another bad potential situation--luckily, texas law enforcement can see into the future and so the arrest on the street outside his apartment was logical....
i am never---ever----going to texas.
