I believe all dram shop laws should be revoked. They remove responsibility from where it belongs and place it where the money is.

This case in particular is outrageous. They didn't serve the driver any alcohol yet are liable for his actions? What, proprietors now have a duty to protect everyone who comes into their establishment? We have to worry about every little thing they may do after they leave our place of business all because they happened to be there? We need to insert some personal responsibility back into our laws before we completely shut down businesses.
