UK Drunks to be given 'booze zone'...


Don't they have Pubs where they can drink?
Hey, maybe they should do "interventions" on them, make a t.v. (telly) show about it.
"C'mon you! We're going to do an intervention on your ass with all your relatives who hate you!"

From your article:

The zones are popular in cities in the United States where they have been used successfully to keep drunks away from areas that are popular with visitors.

Care to tell me where these zones exist in the U.S. that were intentionally created by the government?

Rule, doesn't the city of San Francisco have something like that?
A few years ago they were giving the bums,....."the bum's rush" to keep them out of places like Fisherman's Wharf and the cable car lines so that they wouldn't be bothering the tourists. San Francisco is *loaded* with bums! But, you go down to Fisherman's Wharf and you don't see any.
I don't know if it's "official policy" or not but plenty of times in Boston I've seen the cops keep the bums away from the Boston common and the swan boat rides downtown and they wearn't "polite" about it either.

Laughing... ah the irony of misreporting...[:D]




Moonhead -> RE: UK- the get skid rows like in the US (1/6/2011 1:32:40 PM)

Well, it is a link from the Torygraph he's found.

True.
I just think it's funny how good at misrepresenting newspaper articles PA is ... I mean... he does deserve kudos for that ability.... or just kudos for thinking that he can get away with it whilst posting said article.[;)]
