I expect it does Gary :-)
Anti-social behaviour is a catch all (meaningless) term.
Off course it doe not work, just moves the problem somewhere else.
But the people (fools) in charge claim it is a huge success.
Civilisation is doomed.
Actually it is not that bad, it is worse.
Correct John,
"Hoodie thugs" sole income is from crime, and benefits.
So a hefty fine means more crime or more benefits.
So who suffers most.
I know the answer to that one, it is us victims and tax payers.
Exzim, The Police gave up on spelling words correctly about the same time they stopped catching and/or punishing criminals. Victims of crime are punished severely.
Obviously if all us victims were not freely available, there could be no criminals.
You know it makes sense.
