| 859829 | 2010-02-19 01:39:00 | www.stuff.co.nz Surely the police have powers to deal with drunks in public without going to these extremes? I will get a frisson in continuing to take a glass or two of wine across the road from my house to sit on the beach watching the sunset knowing I am committing an offence. What prats these councillors are. Martynz |

| 859831 | 2010-02-19 03:17:00 | These liquor bans are starting to get a bit close to home. Personally I ignore them anyway like last weekend had a few woodies at Piha about 5 metres from a sign. | prefect (6291) | ||

Breaking the law = ten years jail for you (on your third strike). I think Sensible Sentencing are behind these liquor bans - Puritans United we call them. Zero tolerance in West Auckland I say - but this ban they want to bring to Wellington is uncivilised, no more supping a chardonnay at Scorching Bay - what a tragedy. |

| 859838 | 2010-02-19 08:08:00 | Meh, I knew those brown bags I get from the liquor store with Jim Beam flasks would come in handy one day. Liquor bans don't mean an awful lot to me, really needs to be a different approach, eg drunken disorderly in public, etc. Several times I've walked from central chch, to home in Linwood (don't live there anymore), drunk as a skunk, and still drinking. Never got picked up for it, despite breaching the ban. |
