Solving binge drinking

The article is rubbish, but the comments include the best assessment of the binge drinking problem in Britain and how to solve it.

Short version: Go back to shutting down pubs that allow a drunk on the premises, enforce the laws against being drunk and disorderly, and imprison those who commit acts of violence or destruction of property.

    I thought the photo was a Pietà at first - would make a lovely modern one.

    Now, now, we can't have the Police enforcing the Law. Where would THAT end eh? Burglars, muggers and the like being banged up inside! Preposterous, the very thought!

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
