Good cop, kebab cop
The juxtapostion of these two stories in today’s SMH is just ridiculous.
If pissed idiots on Sydney’s streets are a problem, police don’t need “greater powers” to deal with them – all they need to do is subtly suggest to the stumbling drunk that there is a man handing out free kebabs on the median strip over there – yes, just across those four lanes of traffic.
And if they should survive, to not then ticket the moron for jaywalking – this is to needlessly interfere with Darwinian evolution, by inserting a survival mechanism into the drunk’s next kebab foray, when nature clearly intended that there be none.
