He seems horrified at what he did. He has to live with it and the fact he made it into a national paper. He will have a hard time living it down.
Damien, I have to strongly disagree. No matter how drunk anyone gets, they are always responsible for their actions!

Drivers who drink to excess and then get caught behind the wheel of their car are still held responsible. People who stay up all night, then fall asleep behind the wheel of their motor vehicle are help accountable for their actions, if they cause an accident.... So why should people who get blattered of their faces and urinate whereever they feel like get a free pass.... We are responsible for our actions at all times, not just when its convenient.....
