What's going on in this picture?
This girl was arrested for public intoxication after attending San Diego's most recently banned Floatopia...
Don’t know what Floatopia is? Picture several thousand college students drinking on rafts and inner tubes in the water and you’ll get a pretty good idea of what’s happening out here.
A couple of years ago the City Council banned drinking alcohol on San Diego beaches, piers and sidewalks, but it didn’t occur to anyone to also ban drinking on the water. So over the weekend, thousands of college students showed up with beer coolers as well as plastic rafts, inflatable kiddie pools and inner tubes for 2010 Floatopia. Organizers alerted spring break revelers through Facebook at Floatopia SanDiego.
As long as the college students drank their beer and alcohol on their floaties, the polices were helpless to stop. Some of the police stood on surf boards to overseas the floating party and the cops herded the students into the shallower water to keep them away from boats in Mission Bay.

(The 2014 date is incorrect.)
The building on the left, with the flag in front of it, used to be a Boston police station. The tall one on the right, with the sign on top, is the Prudential Tower. One night 1976 some friends and I were drinking in the bar at the top of the Pru when, around 10:30 or so, I learned that I had leave to to rush home to the suburbs -- to accompany my wife to the hospital where our first child would be born. My friends stayed behind. One of them, after imbibing a little more than he could handle, left by himself and got on the elevator alone -- where he promptly passed out. When he woke up the next morning, he was across the street in the police station -- in a cell.

Formerly a police station, Dillon's is a bar and restaurant on Boylston Street in Boston's Back Bay. Back around 1976, some friends and I decided it was time to go home after having (not) a few beers at the top of the Prudential Tower across the street. It was late. One guy chose to hang around for a few more -- and ended up spending the night in the police station's drunk tank after he passed out in the Pru's elevator. That old drunk tank now being part of a bar is kind of a sweet irony, I guess.

Wavetree- a suburb of Liverpool Merseyside England -
1 of 2 left in the city -the other one being used as the Everton football teams emblem.
look closely : this is the denver drunk bus. it holds 4 drunks in their own, separate, see-through cages. seriously, look at this vecihle; it's amazing (then, check out this guy's expression). the drunks go in the cages, and their belongings go in those drawers underneath. see?
Now closed down, this building at 65th & Blackstone in Woodlawn, once served the Archdiocese of Chicago, but during the 1980's and 90's, this is where we brought the drunks we picked up off the street. Not the guys who'd had a few too many brewskies, no, we're talking "down for the count."
If you've been reading my stories, you know where I stand with all that "man down" crap, but - in this case - that's how they'd assign us the job:
"371, handle a man down at 61st & Vernon."
"10-4 Squad."
So you go and make sure it's bonafide, and you make sure he is breathing and hasn't been shot. Most of the time, you'll find him clutching an empty bottle of "Mogen & David" wine to confirm your initial diagnosis.
If everything checks out, you try to wake him up to see if you can get him to continue his journey now that he's taken a little nap. You can use smelling salts to revive him, or use your night-stick and use the end of the handle to rub his chest-bone. They usually preferred the night-stick method over the smelling salts. If you can get him going, fine, but if he goes back down, he'lll get a battlefield promotion to "sidewalk inspector" and you'll be taking him for a ride.
Getting him in the wagon, you might as well let him lie down on the floor, otherwise he'll bounce around and he'll be a bloody mess by the time you get to the drunk tank. At that point, you just have to get him past the intake worker.
It still doesn't make much sense to me, but if they are "too drunk" they'd make you haul 'em over to the hospital first. It won't take you long to learn that will only lead to a tug-of-war between the triage nurse and the intake worker, and you'll just be hauling bozo back and forth...
So, we'd take him over to Billings Hospital at the University of Chicago medical center. We'd put bozo in a wheelchair, make sure the triage nurse is not at her station - which she usually isn't anyway - park our package at her desk, and make our get-away.
That was our own system to make sure the U of C meets some of its obligations to the community. They're sitting on billions of dollars but refuse to maintain a Level 1 Trauma Center because it might attract a bunch of poor people with no medical insurance.
So this is our way of saying Fuck You for all the cops and all the kids on the South Side who are going to bleed to death because they have to bounce around in the back of an ambulance for an extra ten miles...
The lock-up in Wavertree was built in 1796 to house drunkards overnight. It was modified by Sir James Picton in 1868. It's a pity its weather vane has gone wonky, I could have p'shoped it, but I think there are certain things that one must leave in a photo. HSS!

Simple hasp for locking the drunk tank door. This is because it's purpose was simple. This isn't a jail like they advertise..it's a drunk tank and they were common in the old days. There is a real jail down the street a block away, but that was for real criminals. Here, it was just for people to sober up. The local lawman decided who went in and who goes out, and when. Cuts all the red tape with lawyers and judges and it don't work this way, unfortunately, anymore but that's the way it once was.

Scenic is an unincorporated community in Pennington County, South Dakota, United States. It is located within Scenic Township, which had a 2010 census population of 58 inhabitants. The community is located adjacent to the Badlands National Park, about 50 miles (80 km) southeast of Rapid City, along Highway 44.
In July 2011, the 12-acre (4.9 ha) town and surrounding area—about 46 acres (19 ha) total—was listed for sale at $799,000. The sale includes the post office (ZIP code 57780), Longhorn Saloon, a dance hall, bunkhouse, museum, and two stores. It also includes a train depot that is on an abandoned line that was part of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad and is the subject of a 104-mile (167 km) rails-to-trail project between Rapid City and Kadoka.
Just going on duty in Portland Oregon as a Sheriff's Deputy/Medic for the local detox paddywagon. Shot w/ a little phone camera.
approx 10x15'' with velcro attachment designed to be used on a car antenna. My last flag was made using applique , with these I just handpainted the black ink onto a white piece of cotton. Having some hot wax to use as a relief would have made things a little easier, but I just took it slow. Much happier with these results since the image is viewable on both sides now.
Primarily for drying drunks, (and typically available) or holding a subject, awaking here after sobering up.
When inmates mis- behave or are SEGREGATED, these are used, if a couple are available. Always some are empty, for primary use.
Manitowoc County jail.
