I once got caned so hard it ruptured some blood vessel at the base of a finger, wasn't that messy .. did I deserve it ?.. for a long while possibly not the deputy heads daughter had a schoolgirl crush on my best friend and every chance he got to ping this guy for something usually had me along as well. I can't say I believe corpral punishment does any good
much less the idea of some sketchy public servant being able to take a sanctioned stick to anyone.

back on topic Johns right about the smallest minority being the problem , my wife worked in hospitality for many years and one incident
in particular summed it up well , a guest arrived by taxi to her place of employment straight from jail , out he went to a pub down the road , got turfed out late that night for picking fights and ended up wrestling with a bouncer , lost his room keys ,so got pot plants and smashed a hole through the motel door so he could unlock it .

happy hour or not theres people who are just a handfull of trouble
no matter what they pay for a drink , the industry is making some good choices I believe in self regulation, I don't know everywhere but locally after a certain time you cant leave or get thrown out of one venue and stumble off and enter another.
