Hey, less money spent on a babysitter means more cash for booze!

A Nanticoke man arrested for public intoxication and disorderly conduct at a city bar left his children home alone, under "God's" supervision, police said.

Julian Jay Johnson, 32, was found inside of a silver Jaguar sedan with the car running and headlights on, after trying to initiate fights with several patrons inside of Tommyboy's Bar and Grille, 12 N. Market St., police said.

Bar manager Stephanie Smith told police she saw Johnson pull out a large pipe-like item from the sedan's trunk after he said he was coming back with "something" for the patrons, according to police. Smith locked the bar's door, prompting Johnson to return to his vehicle, police said.

Upon arrival at the Nanticoke police headquarters, Johnson told officials he needed to go home because his children were there and that "God was watching them," Nanticoke police said.

Officers arrived at Johnson's home, 55 Loomis St., and discovered three children, ages 1, 3 and 6, home alone, police said.

Alongside Children and Youth caseworker Jamie Stuart, police observed several safety issues and insufficient living conditions within the home, police said. All three children were taken into protective custody.

Luzerne County 911 indicated that Johnson's operating privileges were under suspension for offenses related to driving under the influence, according to the police report.

Johnson was charged with public drunkenness, disorderly conduct, two counts of harassment and endangering the welfare of a child.

He was arraigned in Wilkes-Barre Central Court on Tuesday, and jailed in Luzerne County Correctional Facility on $5,000 cash bail.

A pipe was the wrong thing. It should have been a gun.

Henry Jewell used to leave my brother and me in the car while he hit the bars. Once I got out and walked home. Mom just shook her head. When the sperm-donor got home he had apparently not noticed he was short a kid.

My grandfather would take us with him so people would feel badly enough about us to give him a free ride home when he became to drunk to walk.

It was fun though, he gave us money to play the gambling machines and we'd get all the treats we wanted - bars in Germany are much more child friendly.

We just drank the moonshine at home

My dad never left me outside a bar / at home while he went to a bar / took me to a bar. I feel I've missed out.

Yeah, six hours in a car in a parking lot in Indiana in July is an experience every child should have.

Meh. That's what Irish people did back in the day.

And then their kids got raped

Mine owned a bar.
What I liked best about it was the maraschino cherries and the little swords.

Then they were refugees, then they were "No Irish Wanted", then they were my ancestors.

My uncle owned a bar - he cashed in on me just hanging around people would buy shots for me, and I don't drink. So, he just put those under counter and resold them.

The 'rents never left me alone... actually, that insistence on me being in a 'baby stat' environment started being a bother from a certain age on... there were time I'd much rather have been left alone to guard the house and read than go wherever...

I grew up with two children who's parents were dysfunctional abusive and possibly deranged alcoholics whowere I've been reliably told the product of same. In those days aunts and neighbours were as close to protective custody that anyone would send children unless absolutely necessary. Often I'd see them wandering about all hours of day and night, neither of them yet in their teens. Their subsequent lives disasters. If God was watching them then the cunt deserves to be crucified again and again for every child he neglected.
