were people always this out of control? It's like so many of them have forgotten how to behave in public, or worse, they never learned

There's a reason that there have been laws on the books against public intoxication for ages in many jurisdictions. Being drunk and disorderly is hardly a recent phenomenon.

What is new is that everybody and his brother has a handy-dandy video camera in their pocket or in their hand, ready to record with the touch of a finger anytime something interesting happens. No one posts videos of people behaving normally. Why would they?

The entitlement was out of control. Just leave already. Saying "I'm an AG" doesn't change that they appear to be drunks that the restaurant wanted gone.
