i'd say thats a bit unfair. i enjoy a drink, as most guys of my age do, but i never cause any trouble with a drink in me, have never missed a day of work due to ethanol consumtion, and have certainly never vandalised property, so why not... instead of punishing people who go out and drink responsibly, impose higher fines on those who are caught committing offences when drunk?
