Did you actually read my post, Den? I said that people who are drunk should not be allowed to proceed through the gates.

These people should not spoil it for responsible drinkers.

But the rules can be changed, Den!!

In which case, they should enforce the rules!

Just as smoking was banned from buses, trains, hospitals, schools, colleges, shops, parks, cinemas, theatres, pubs and some beaches, you can expect alcohol to be banned from all public places and forms of transport at some point.

Except for pubs.. but they are still closing down at a high rate, partly due to the smoking ban.
In which case, they should have pubs on planes.

That was a joke, by the way, in case anyone wasn't sure.
