San Jose to get a new twist on the 'drunk tank' this year

Looks like Santa Clara County is the next to receive a state-of-the-art "sobering station". It's designed to handle individuals who are intoxicated but non-violent and just to "mellow out". This apparently will free up the jails for criminals who are in fact dangerous. What people are talking about is the fact that these places will have recliners, snacks, as well as laundry service. What are your thought on this? Maybe I bit excessive or do you think it makes sense to use our tax dollars toward these amenities? Peep the full story here.
