Britain beset by drunk yobs
Edited on Tue Nov-23-04 11:50 AM by dArKeR
Binge drinking and antisocial behavior are getting worse, authorities say

The American "super-cop" brought in by England's Home Office to cut the country's crime rate warned last night that the nation's binge drinking culture was spiraling out of control and fueling an epidemic of violence outside pubs and clubs that threatened to overwhelm the police.

In his first major interview the former Boston police chief, Paul Evans, described scenes he had witnessed in the early hours of the morning in city centers across Britain as chaos.

"I'm not sure it can get much worse," he said, in response to police fears that new licensing laws allowing 24-hour drinking would lead to increased violence.

More proof that drugs should be legal! Pot and pills make you mellow! But then I forgot, God anointed beer/wine as the only drug for Christian America.

2. Have you seen...
Has ANYONE seen the new sport in England called 'Dogging'?

Apparently people have taken to the parks and are having sex in cars. Some allow audiences and the rare few even encourage 'outside participation'.

I've only read one article, so I'm not sure if this is actually true.

3. There have been several 'mainWHOREstream' reports on this. From the UK and
the American Whore Media. You can find them in the DU from about 1 year ago.
