In Taunton, nine out of 21 establishments did not ask for ID and in Middleboro four out of nine failed to card the buyer.

In some states it's against state statute to ask for photo ID. It doesn't mean you can't offer it, but they can't ask for it.

I made a couple of nice putts on the back nine that you are not supposed to make, but that is what you do when you have a hot round.

We can all count to nine, and at best we may be at four in two months.

We are not stopping arrests. We are stopping these particular operations. We will still be in the licensed establishments enforcing the laws, including public intoxication and sale to intoxicated persons. Routine inspections will continue, as will responses to complaints.

Environmentalism has failed.
