    What is Public Intox?

    Thanks Jet, But it still leaves the question, what is intoxicated then? When i was a cop in AZ it was more clear cut, in that the statute read "appears" to be intoxicated and examples that were used in training and that had held up in court were slurred speech, falling/tripping, unable to...
