The shoppers aren't likely to be stupid drunk and like as not at

You must not have any 24-hour supermarkets in your area: that's where
the drunks go when the bars close...

There aren't many but even what there is can't sell anything after
hours.


WGAS?

Your complaint was about drunks with weapons...and claimed that the
supermarket shoppers were more likely to be sober than the bar patrons
(see your comment quoted above).

One big difference between the bar and the 24-hour supermarket: the bar
(in most areas) has a "closing time" while the supermarket doesn't. This
time - in some areas - can be at 0500 with an "opening time" of 0600.
Just how much sobriety would you expect the bar patrons to gain during
this period?
