While some may disagree I don't think it is the kindest thing to do to a person. Getting someone involved in the criminal justice system is never a good thing. It is not always an alcoholics "wake up call" & sometimes the shame of being arrested leads to more drinking. I am sober today not because of my consequences from drinking but because of the benefits of being sober.
